Hi, I'm currently looking to see if sending large PDFs as an attachment using Axis 1.3 over JMS will reduce the memory spikes that we are currently seeing on some sites.
If this did work we would be sending SOAP messages over JMS but for prototyping purposes I'm working with Tomcat 5.5.12 However, I'm getting a bit confused over how exactly to send/receive attachments. The Axis 1.3 samples directory contains what I believe are two samples - attachments and swa. I'm assuming that swa is SoapWithAttachments in which case I'm not quite sure what the example in the attachments directory is. It seems that the service method called in the attachments code explicitly passes a DataHandler object as a parameter to the service call whereas this is not the case for the swa example. I also have been looking at "Fear of Attachments" from http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg08732/Fear_of_Attach ments.pdf which I thought would be helpful but the code samples seem to assume use of some generated files from WSDL which I wouldn't have, in particular the section of client code where the attachment (DataHandler) is added. In a way similar to this code though I want to be just tag the attachment on to the service request message. I apologise in advance if I'm missing something obvious but if if I could just get clear explanation of differences between ways of sending attachments indicated by the attachments example and the swa example that would be great. Alternatively, if anybody knows that this approach won't solve our problem then could you let me know with reasoning. Upgrading to Axis 2 is not an option at the moment so please don't suggest.
