I've written code that uses the local transport to interact with XFire at the byte level so as to shoehorn it into an existing structure. I ended up with a class that accepts a ByteBuffer of XML for the input message, and produces the response similiarly.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 16, 2007 12:22 PM To: user@xfire.codehaus.org Subject: [xfire-user] XFire as a library Hi everyone, I have a system that uses a variety of transport protocols that takes requests and funnels them to a backend ESB. We have decided to start supporting web services as well and want to fit it into our existing architecture and profiling/messaging system. We have a servlet that handles HTTP and HTTP/S traffic already. When I receive an inbound message, I want to call XFire (not use its own servlet) with the received message and get the headers and body back (possibly after decryption and signature verification). I don't need/want xfire to deserialize the body or attempt to invoke the service itself, I have a separate mechanism I need to call to get that done. I basically want something like a single, global invoker that is called for any web service. From that invoker, I would then call my legacy code. For sending an outbound message, I generally have the same situation, I just need to apply security, signing and the like and possibly monkey with the headers, then send it out via a legacy process. Is there a way to do all of this or should I attempt to use something like WSS4J directly? Thanks, Dan .
