Hi,
I have created a Axis webservice implementing a WSDL. This is working fine. There is an external webservice running on some other machine. Axis webservice is required to access this external webservice. For this i created a Axis client to access a webservice. When run separately, this works fine and i am able to call the external webservice. The SOAP request message that is sent to the external webservice is following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soapenv:Body>
<StartMonitoring>
<securityToken>
<seq>0</seq>
<token xsi:nil="true"/>
</securityToken>
</StartMonitoring>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
But when i use this client inside my axis webservice and call some method of my webservice, it changes the SOAP message:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soapenv:Body>
<StartMonitoring>
<securityToken>
<seq xmlns="">0</seq>
<token xsi:nil="true" xmlns=""/>
</securityToken>
</StartMonitoring>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Please notice the xmlns="" in the above message.
The sequence of call is like this:
First Case: [Axis Webservice Client] --> [External Webservice]
Second Case: [Axis Webservice Client] --> [Axis Webservice] --> [External Webservice]
Why the SOAP message is different in the two cases? Is it related to namespace of the calling webservice?
Thanx for any help.
