RE: getting request hostname/IP

[Tom Jordahl]

 

Keep in mind this is just for SimpleAxisServer, which is pretty much only used for testing.

Also, in a environment where a hostname lookup wont work (the recent interop for instance, we used fixed IP address), using the hostname isn't the best.  This is why I would prefer to get the info from the request.

 

I think Rick R. recent submit will do the right thing, but I haven't tested it.

 

As far as setting the namespace from the URL, I believe the right thing here is to specify the namespace of the service in the deployment description (wsdd).  We might have this already, I'm not sure.  JWS files would could use the config interface (which needs to be updated so we can get all the service description info from a JWS (or any) class itself...

Tom,
I was just looking at this the other day, using "localhost" is really bad
since when someone uses ?wsdl they'll get "localhost" in the WSDL which
makes it useless. In our local copy we use:
String hostname = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
but I didn't check it in because some tests broke. I think the tests are
wrong but didn't get a chance to look into it.
On a side note - it sure would be nice if ?wsdl supported some options
like setting of the namespace from the URL (ie. ?wsdl&namespace=urn:foo)

Yes, that actually is close.
But what I really want is to reflect back in the WSDL the address or hostname (and it could be either) that was used by the request.

But failing that, we should probably just set the value to the local host IP address.
This may be trouble on machines with more than 1 IP address however....

Tom,

Is this what u are looking for?

Thanks,
