Hi

There's something wrong with the implementation of a utility ByteDataSource 
implementing DataSource...In my system test which I'm running in the server 
depending on CXF simply using like this in 
the Provider<DataSource> implementation causes an instant HTTP 500 :

DataSource invoke(DataSource) {
    return new ByteDataSource("foo".getBytes()); 
}

I feel the way it implements DataSource is subtly incorrect perhaps ? I've 
replaced the call with javax.mail.ByteArrayDataSource, works just fine... 

Cheers, Sergey

  Subject: Re: Attachment support in XML binding and ProviderChainObserver (Was 
: Mime support...)


  The only concern is whether it actually JAXWS-compliant to have a 
Provider<Source> implementations to get a root part of the multipart/related 
request as the invoke Source and get to other parts through a Map<String, 
DataHandler>...

  Looks like it's compliant...A useful matrix is here :
  http://weblogs.java.net/blog/arungupta/archive/2006/03/jaxws_20_provid_1.html

  so it says Provider<Source> represents either a primary part (of 
multipart/related) or content...

  That said, I have things working just fine using Provider<DataSource>, can 
get both POSTed (raw) multipart/related data and even GET even binary data back 
this is really good. That said, I can have an initial patch sent in the next 
few days or so if I can get an approval for the 
ProviderChainObserver::onMessage() change as described below...


  Cheers, Sergey



    Hi

    Would it suffice if I do this :

    * In ProviderChainObserver::onMessage() explictly add 
AttachmentInInterceptors in front of the DispatchInInterceptor, simpliest 
solution possibly, but not generic

    for a start ?

    endpoint.getBinding().getInInterceptors().clear();
    endpoint.getBinding().getInInterceptors().add(new 
AttachmentInInterceptor());
    endpoint.getBinding().getInInterceptors().add(new DispatchInInterceptor());


    With this change my test works just fine. Provider<Source> implementation 
gets the root part of the multipart/related body as a Source and then it can 
get any other remaining parts from MessageContext as a Map<String, DataHandler> 
by using MessageContext.INCOMING_MESSAGE_ATTACHMENTS.

    Obviosuly for SOAP XML providers, they'll have to handle XOP root body 
themselves with xop:Includes, but this root part will passed to them as a 
Source and then they would be able to retrieve all the included parts form the 
Map...

    I reckon having an explicit AttachmentInInterceptor() in 
ProviderChainObserver::onMessage() won't harm in . Without it, Provider<Source> 
implementaions just don't work if a multipart/related message is sent to 
them... Not a very big deal perhaps, as one can do Provider<DataSource> to get 
a non-XML input, but in this case multipart/related parts will have to be 
parsed manually...

    Cheers, Sergey




    Hi

    Renamed the subject to better reflect the topic of this thread.
    I've spent a bit of time trying to make a test verifyiing attachments can 
be handled by Provider<Source> implementations working and finally I found what 
seems to be the last
    stumbling block.

    As it happens, all in-interceptors for Provider-based endpoints, 
specifically the ones added at XMLBinding creation time, are cleared away in 
ProviderChainObserver::onMessage() :

    endpoint.getBinding().getInInterceptors().clear();

    endpoint.getBinding().getInInterceptors().add(new DispatchInInterceptor());

    As Eoghan explained to me, this is in fact compatible with the JAX-WS spec, 
as Providers are willing to deal with Sources (XML) directly, so any XMLBinding 
interceptors required to serve SEI endpoints. 

    Unfortunately, the way it's done at the moment causes a problem in case of 
the attachments coming in a multpart/related package, simply because 
AttachmentInInterceptors required to deserialize the message properly so that a 
root part of the mutlipart/related package can be presented as a Source, is 
cleared away. Actually, as far as I understand, the same problem would apply to 
Provider<Source> provideres served by HTTPBinding.

    So what would be the best way to solve this problem ? Several options are 
possible.

    * In ProviderChainObserver::onMessage() explictly add 
AttachmentInInterceptors in front of the DispatchInInterceptor, simpliest 
solution possibly, but not generic.

    * clear away only those interceptors which are not instanceof certain 
AbstractInterceptor types so that interceptors to do with the (de)serializing, 
logging, etc can be left in the chain

    * Update base Interceptor interface to have a method like getType() or smth 
like that so that binding interceptors dealing with SEI invocatins can be 
removed...

    I'd aprerciate some feedback on this.

    By the way, I've just found that by implementing Provider<DataSource> (with 
Service.MODE=Message), I can actually get all the raw data coming in, be they 
in XMl or not XML format, and also I can serve GET requests by returning 
non-XML data. This is great. Only thing is that it's much handier to deal with 
Map<String, DataHandler> then parsing all the attchment stuff manually :-) so 
once the pacth is applied I'd consider doing Provider<Source>. Only minor issue 
is that text/xml is set as Content-Type all the time, but it's a minor issue 
indeed.

    Hi

    What's the recommended approach for setting uninitilzied properties in 
JAXWS. 
    For ex, if message.getAttachments() returns null then should I add an empty 
map as
    a MessageContext.INBOUND_ATTACHMENT_VALUE ? I'd prefer adding the empty 
map, 
    this would probably be consistent with the way other similar values are 
being setup..but I can add nothing in case of unitialized attachments if it 
would more consistent with the way CXF inits properties...
    Thanks, Sergey
