eBay SDK for Java

Welcome to the eBay SDK for Java Community Codebase project! The eBay SDK for Java is open source. This SDK cuts development time and simplifies tasks like error handling. You can download files and view the frequently asked questions (FAQs).

Note: We have migrated the Java SDK from an AXIS-based version to a JAX-WS-based version. After the Java 595 Full Release, only the JAX-WS version will be updated and supported.

Author: eBay
License: Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL)

How to Run This Code

Before using the SDK, please read the Readme file for the JavaSDK (JAXB) or the JavaSDK (Axis).

Documentation

This SDK enables you to make Trading API calls. See the Trading API documentation below for information on the calls and how to make them.

Support

Please report eBay SDK for Java bugs and other concerns using the Java SDK Forum or Live Chat.

Downloads

You can download full releases and/or point releases. Point releases (unlike full releases) do not go through the typical, full rounds of quality assurance. Point releases include bug fixes and updates to the wrapper classes.

FAQs

What can I do with this SDK?

This project makes it easy to use eBay Web services. It provides native call wrappers and a number of additional features to simplify usage of our APIs.

What is the API release cycle?

eBay releases an updated version of the API every two weeks. This release may contain new APIs, updated APIs (new features and return values), or potentially even remove an obsolete call.

In eBay lingo, releases are called "trains," and the deployment process is called "rolling out." Every train has a number. For example, we release version 463 during the last week of May / first week of June, 2006.

Therefore, you may see phrases such as "we just rolled the 463 train, so 465 will go out in two weeks."

What is the SDK release cycle?

Full releases go through an extensive set of internal QA and regression testing. Therefore, if you require maximum stability, we recommend that you use full releases. If you need to pick up a new API call as soon as possible, test-run one of the point releases in a test environment. Point releases have only minor changes, and we don't expect any major bugs, but instability is always possible.

How do I get technical support?

For help using the SDK, go to our Java SDK Forums board. Many top SDK developers hang out there and are always willing to help out. A member of the eBay DTS team also monitors the forum on a regular basis to give additional assistance. If you require immediate assistance, you can use one of our Paid Help support options.

Why are you using the CDDL license?

We chose the CDDL because it is a widely used license that is commercial friendly. It's important to us that our developers feel safe that they can use the SDK in commercial and non-commercial projects.

Beyond the basic terms, the CDDL is a relatively modern license, and has provisions on IP, which we think is crucial in today's world of software development. Also, we wanted to use one of the pre-existing licenses.

    Please add the release date to the table of versions so that we can work out when the next one is likely (as full releases are on a two month cycle).
