registry search client

[Ray Plante]

Hi Folks,

I'm gradually catching up after my vacation.  I want to let you know that 
I have posted to the twiki a Java registry search client that can be used 
to test our registry search interfaces.  You can find it at 
RegUpgradeSummer2006 
(http://www.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/RegUpgradeSummer2006) as a zip 
file called ireg-linux.zip.  

It includes a *nix shell wrapper script that allows you to access search 
functions from the command line (Windows version coming soon).  After 
unpacking the zip file, you can find the documentation for this tool 
inside bin/regsearch.  This tool is still a little clunky for use in 
scripts, but it is definitely useful for debugging.  In particular, -x 
option will print out the SOAP messages coming and going.  

cheers,
Ray
