Hi, I am having problems writing a client for a Doc-lit service. The service I want to create simple receives a string which is the ID of an xml document. It then returns the next xml document in the sequence.
I tried using the MsgProvider as it appeared to be good for handling this kind of request -- the method signature would be public Document getNext(Document id) -- This didn't work, however, and I noticed that you said the client.Call can't be used for this kind of service. I was trying to use the example you provided below but was unsure what the Locator was. Is this an Axis 1.2 thing? Also, if you have any other suggestions as to how to implement this service, please let me know.

Build client stubs from wsdl and then use the XXXLocator and getXXXPort to obtain a handle to the service. Locator l = new Locator(); PortType pt = locator.getPortType(); pt.doSomeMethod(RequestClassGoesHere); -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Greif [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 6:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: non-stub doc-lit client When a wsdl operation is defined to be doc/lit, the org.apache.client.Call setOperation() methods seem to make unexpected assumptions about the form of the argument parameters, both in number and type. I tested this in axis-1_2RC1 using the client program pasted below. Clearly I must be missing something. Is the behavior below by design? Suppose I have a wsdl defined to have <types> <schema ... <element name="op" > <complexType> <sequence> <element name="s1" type="xsd:string"/> <element name="s2" type="xsd:int"/> ... <element name="opReturn" ...> ... <message name="opRequest"> <part name="part" element="tns:op"/> </message> <message name="opResponse"> <part name="ret" element="tns:opReturn"/> </message> <portType>... <operation name="op"> <input message="tns:opRequest"/> <output message="tns:opResponse"/> </operation> ... and the binding specifies a doc/lit operation. If I understand correctly, a doc/lit operation such as that above defined suitably for compatibility with the WS-I Basic Profile should take a single parameter which is an element or document and return an Element or Document. I assumed, incorrectly, it seems, that a single argument should be passed in the client. I try to pass this argument to Call.invoke in the form of an org.w3c.dom.Element: <op><s1>foo</s1><s2>33</s2></op> but these things go wrong: 1. The client program requires two objects in the parameter array passed to invoke. 2. If I supply the first one as above, and a null second one, the soap body contains: <Body> <op> <s1><op><s1>foo</s1><s2>33</s2></op></s1> <s2></s2> </op> </Body> That is, it is assumed that the constituents of the operation's input doc part will be provided as separate parameters, rather than as a single document. The example below is self-contained and should depend only on the jars in the Axis build. ---------------------- TestClientDocLit.java ----------------- import java.io.FileReader; import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.StringReader; import org.w3c.dom.*; import org.xml.sax.*; import org.apache.axis.client.Call; import org.apache.axis.client.Service; import javax.xml.namespace.QName; import javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode; import javax.xml.parsers.*; // import javax.xml.transform.*; // import javax.xml.transform.stream.*; // import javax.xml.transform.dom.*; // import org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.ElementSerializerFactory; // import org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.ElementDeserializerFactory; // import org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.ElementDeserializer; public class TestClientDocLit { // static TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance(); public static void main(String [] args) { try { String ns = "http://www.wolfram.com/XML/SOAP/WolframSearch";; QName serviceName = new QName(ns, "WolframSearchService"); QName operationName = new QName(ns, "WolframQuickSearch"); QName portName = new QName(ns, "WolframSearchPort"); QName returnQName = new QName(ns, "WolframQuickSearchReturn"); String endpoint = "http://webservices.wolfram.com/services/SearchServices/services/Wolfram Sear ch"; Service service = new Service("http://webservices.wolfram.com/services/SearchServices/WolframS earc h.wsdl", serviceName); Call call = (Call) service.createCall(portName, operationName.getLocalPart()); String testStr = "<WolframQuickSearch xmlns='" + ns + "'><text>definite integral</text><limit>30</limit></WolframQuickSearch>"; Document d = null; try { DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder(); d = db.parse(new InputSource(new StringReader(testStr))); } catch (Exception e) { System.err.println("Failed to parse test doc " + e); return; } Element ret = (Element) call.invoke(operationName, new Object[] { d.getDocumentElement(), null // have to add ", null" here to get invocation }); // System.out.println("Sent:"); // serialize(d); // if (ret != null) { // System.out.println("Received:"); // serialize(ret); // } else { // System.err.println("Null response."); // } } catch (Exception e) { System.err.println(e.toString()); } } // static void serialize(Document d) { // serialize(d.getDocumentElement()); // } // static void serialize(Element e) { // try { // tf.newTransformer().transform(new DOMSource(e), new StreamResult(System.out)); // } catch (Exception x) { // System.err.println("Failed to serialize " + x); // } // } } [prev in list] [next in list] [p Raul
