ServiceClient and RPCServiceClient classes
------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-1817
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-1817
Project: Apache Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: samples
Environment: Linux Fedora5, tomcat 5.5.20, java1.5.0_0.9, Axis2 1.0
Reporter: Federica Ciotti
I have some important doubts on ServiceClient and RPCServiceClient classes.
In axis I used to do something like this: listProduct = (Vector<Object>)
call.invoke(new Object[]{});
When I migrated to axis2 I thought that ServiceClient was the easiest way to
invoke a method just as I did in axis.
But I find out that I'm forced to use OMElement for parameters and invocation's
result in this way (MyCalcClient.java):
try{
ServiceClient serviceClient = new ServiceClient();
serviceClient.setOptions(options);
OMFactory fac = OMAbstractFactory.getOMFactory();
OMNamespace omNs =
fac.createOMNamespace("http://www.cal.com/calc", "calc");
OMElement payload = fac.createOMElement(opStr, omNs);
OMElement param1OM = fac.createOMElement("param1",
omNs);
OMElement param2OM = fac.createOMElement("param2",
omNs);
param1OM.setText(Integer.toString(pi1));
param2OM.setText(Integer.toString(pi2));
payload.addChild(param1OM);
payload.addChild(param2OM);
serviceClient.setOptions(options);
OMElement result = serviceClient.sendReceive(payload);
System.out.println(result.toString());
}catch(AxisFault af){af.printStackTrace();}
and this is not very good if you have complex object returned by methods and
complex parameters.
Looking at RPCServiceClient i found out an easiest way (class
RPC_MyCalcClient.java):
try{
String opName="add";
EndpointReference targetEPR = new
EndpointReference("http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/RPCCalcService/");
Options options = new Options();
options.setTo(targetEPR);
options.setTransportInProtocol(Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP);
ConfigurationContext
configContext=ConfigurationContextFactory.createConfigurationContextFromFileSystem(null,null);
RPCServiceClient sender = new
RPCServiceClient(configContext, null);
sender.setOptions(options);
ArrayList<Integer> arg = new ArrayList<Integer>();
Integer a = new Integer("100");
arg.add(a);
Integer b = new Integer("200");
arg.add(b);
QName opAdd = new QName("http:///xsd", "add");
Object[] params = new Object[] { a, b };
Class[] returnTypes = new Class[] { Integer.class };
Object[] response = sender.invokeBlocking(opAdd,
params, returnTypes);
Integer result = (Integer) response[0];
if (result == null) {System.out.println("Null");}
else System.out.println("Result "+ result.toString());
}catch(AxisFault a){a.printStackTrace();}
If I want something like that: Object[] response = sender.invokeBlocking(opAdd,
params, returnTypes);
I'm forced to use RPCServiceClient?
RPCServiceClient means that I'm using soap/rpc binding style?
Soap/document-style is supported in axis2?
I've checked the examples in CalculatorService package, in this case a
different tecnique is used (CalcClient.java) and a SOAPEnvelope Object is
returned by the method invocation:
SOAPEnvelope result = opClient.getMessageContext(
WSDLConstants.MESSAGE_LABEL_IN_VALUE).getEnvelope();
How can I choose one of these different tecniques?
Please help me understanding more about and tell me where can I find
documentation on this issue.
Many Thanks
Federica
