Hi,

Thank you very much to everyone for your answers and contributions.

Despite, it is not really a good news regarding the Translator web service, we should get some alternative as we have to consider other external web services. I hope that among them, we will find at least one using "doc literal encoding";

by this way, how can I be sure the WSDL use the doc literal encoding ?

We had a discussion with my colleagues as to decide the best work direction to choose. Let me try to explain as clearly as possible what we must necessarily succeed to show in our experiment using SCA and Tuscany SCA Java. We should be able to demonstrate:

- how to manage in a declarative manner (SCA, SCDL say .Composite) a ws binding together with various policies (among which security by authentication) to legacy external web services. "Legacy" means already existing and already deployed.

          - how it can be achieved successfully using Tuscany.

So, for the moment, we put the interesting proposition (mediation component ) by Ant aside for possible later use as we wish to go on with direct external connection - if achievable.

To this end, as I did not succeeded yet in trying your external ws connection example, I would appreciate if I can send you my code for verification in case I do not succeed in my tests on another web service. Simon proposed me to send it via a JIRA session but which type of issue do I choose ? "test", "improvement" ?

Of course, we are still greatly interested in a Tuscany solution to the RPC-encoded wsdl if it is to come.

Regards,
Marina.

We might not have RPC-encoded support with the Tuscany data binding

exactly the type of situation where thats useful? There could be a

OMElements or even JavaScript/E4X to invoke the service and providing a service interface with the de-XMLed parameters for the web service. I
can
try coding something like that up later on today for you Marina if that
would help?

Hi,

Thanks for the answer by Simon Laws and his proposition to open a
JIRA
for
providing my code there.

Before doing so, would you please test the following links of the
external
web service I try to connect to :

http://159.217.144.79/webservices/Translator.asmx
http://159.217.144.79/webservices/Translator.asmx?WSDL

It seems to be publicly available.

Thanks.

I download the new version you indicate to me in your answer

So I cannot go forward on my problem with connecting to the

In your answer, you mentionned "the trunk"; what and where is
it
?

Marina.

 Have you looked in the XML BigBank demo application ? This

 Hello,

 I have began to work on SCA and Tuscany SCA Java a few

an

experimentation
especially
involves already existing and deployed business web

 I have read various documents on SCA and in particular
the
very
nice
article "Introducing SCA" by David Chappell & Associates.
Reading
this
paper
- in particular, the section "putting together:

that
it
was
possible to use binding.ws to connect from a SCA domain to

non-SCA
web

another
SCA
domain
- say invoke an external non-SCA web service or an > > > >

 However, after installing and experiencing with
tuscany-sca-1.1-incubating
I did not succeeded once on invoking an external SOAP
(asmx)
web
service,
whatever I use binding.ws uri= ... or binding.wswsdlElement


etc..
Depending
on the description of binding.ws in the composite file, I
get
a
different
execution exception (service not found in WSDL,
reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException, ClassCast Exception
...)

 Moreover, I do not see any corresponding examples in
Tuscany
Java.

 So my question is : does this work in Tuscany SCA Java
1.1
?
If
the
answer
is yes, would you please provide me with an corresponding
working
example
(because in that case, I obvioulsy have made a mistake
somewhere
in
the code
or composite description )? If the answer is no, is there
another
already
available version in which that is working  or a planned
version
within a
few months ?

 Thanks very much.

 Marina.

Hi Marina


If you can send you sample that shows the problem and the WSDL
for
the
external service you are trying to contact then one of us and
give
it
a
go
and see what is going on. Is the external service publicly
available
on
the
internet?

If you are able to do this the best thing to do is to open a
JIRA
(
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY) and attach the
code

there.
Attachments to posts to the mailing list are often removed by
the
mail
infrastructure.


As a bit of backgroun, in SCA the way that you would talk to an

external
web
service is by configuring binding.ws with the WSDL for the
external
service
as part of a component reference. So, for example, you would
expect
to
see a
.composite file along the following lines  (I took this from the

Tuscany
sample helloworld-ws-reference).


   <component name="HelloTuscanyServiceComponent">
     <implementation.java
class="helloworld.HelloWorldServiceComponent"/>
     <reference name="helloWorldService">
       <binding.ws wsdlElement="

http://helloworld#wsdl.port(HelloWorldService/HelloWorldSoapPort) <http://helloworld#wsdl.port%28HelloWorldService/ HelloWorldSoapPort%29>
<http://helloworld#wsdl.port%28HelloWorldService/HelloWorldSoapPort %29>
<
http://helloworld#wsdl.port%28HelloWorldService/HelloWorldSoapPort %29>
"/>
     </reference>
   </component>

The component implementation
(helloworld.HelloWorldServiceComponent)
would
be something like.

public class HelloWorldServiceComponent implements
HelloWorldService
{

   @Reference
   HelloWorldService helloWorldService;

   public String getGreetings(String name) {
       System.out.println("Called getGreetings");
       return helloWorldService.getGreetings(name);
   }
}

So you can see that all that the SCA service component needs to
do
is
use
the reference proxy that is automatically injected into it. The
details
of
this reference proxy are of course worked out by the runtime
using
the
information gained from the <binding.ws wsdlElement="

http://helloworld#wsdl.port(HelloWorldService/HelloWorldSoapPort) <http://helloworld#wsdl.port%28HelloWorldService/ HelloWorldSoapPort%29>
<http://helloworld#wsdl.port%28HelloWorldService/HelloWorldSoapPort %29>
<
http://helloworld#wsdl.port%28HelloWorldService/HelloWorldSoapPort %29>
"/>
element. In this case the binding and service from the  WSDL
look
something
like.

....
   <wsdl:binding name="HelloWorldSoapJmsBinding"
type="tns:HelloWorld">
       <wsdlsoap:binding style="document" transport="
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/jms"/>
       <wsdl:operation name="getGreetings">
           <wsdlsoap:operation soapAction=""/>
           <wsdl:input name="getGreetingsRequest">
               <wsdlsoap:body use="literal"/>
           </wsdl:input>
           <wsdl:output name="getGreetingsResponse">
               <wsdlsoap:body use="literal"/>
           </wsdl:output>
       </wsdl:operation>
   </wsdl:binding>

   <wsdl:service name="HelloWorldService">
       <wsdl:port binding="tns:HelloWorldSoapBinding"
name="HelloWorldSoapPort">
           <wsdlsoap:address location="
http://localhost:8085/HelloWorldService"/>
       </wsdl:port>
   </wsdl:service>

</wsdl:definitions>

So the reference should target the service at the location
defined
by
the
<wsdlsoap:address location="
http://localhost:8085/HelloWorldService
"/>
element. In your case there maybe some feature of the WSDL that
is
upsetting
the runtime and that we haven;t taken account of. The only way
to

really
tell is if we can try the WSDL.

Hope this helps.

Simon

OK, thanks Marina. I can see that endpoint. There is a problem in
the
way

that Tuscany interprets the style of this WSDL as I don't believe we
have
done any testing with web services that are not using doc literal
wrapped
encoding. I'm sure someone will jump in here and correct me if I'm
wrong.
We
need to look at the code and see what it thinks it's dong when it
encounters
rpc-encoded.

Thanks

Simon

Ant

That sounds plausible and actually a kind of neat example of the value of mediation components. I note there was a JIRA for rpc encoded support ( http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-88) that was closed a while back. I'm of a mind to open another one as the Web Service binding spec
says
all options supported in the WSDL binding should be supported.

Simon


Ok, i've reopened that now.
