Excessive AXIS Namespace Prefix generation -------------------------------------------
Key: ODE-290 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODE-290 Project: ODE Issue Type: Bug Components: Axis2 Integration Affects Versions: 1.1.1 Environment: Java6u6, Tomcat 6.0.16 Reporter: Ciaran Jessup Priority: Minor The AXIS SOAP responses I'm getting back from ODE within soapui show a worrying proliferation of namespace prefixes. The same namespace is receiving a new prefix everytime it is referenced in the response document, an example document showing a mock-up of web service result follows: <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <soapenv:Body> <axis2ns4756:ExecuteWorkflowResponse xmlns:axis2ns4756="http://mynsworkflow" xmlns="http://mynsworkflow" xmlns:saw="http://mynsworkflow"> <ExecuteWorkflowResult version="48" xmlns:ns2="http://mynswsdl"> <axis2ns4757:type xmlns:axis2ns4757="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">1</axis2ns4757:type> <axis2ns4758:status xmlns:axis2ns4758="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">1</axis2ns4758:status> <axis2ns4759:channel xmlns:axis2ns4759="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">0</axis2ns4759:channel> <axis2ns4760:outcome xmlns:axis2ns4760="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">bece5689-a575-4531-86b6-15176d827c08</axis2ns4760:outcome> <axis2ns4761:state xmlns:axis2ns4761="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">53f123fc-9a27-4559-8fd2-86a6f9dc598e</axis2ns4761:state> <axis2ns4762:creationTime xmlns:axis2ns4762="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">0001-01-03T00:00:00+00:00</axis2ns4762:creationTime> <axis2ns4763:changeTime xmlns:axis2ns4763="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">0001-01-03T00:00:00+00:00</axis2ns4763:changeTime> <axis2ns4764:createdBy xmlns:axis2ns4764="http://mynsmsg" xmlns="http://mynsmsg">bece5689-a575-4531-86b6-15176d827c08</axis2ns4764:createdBy> </ExecuteWorkflowResult> </axis2ns4756:ExecuteWorkflowResponse> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> As one can see the same namespace is repeated for every element (the XSD specifies that the element's default form is qualified), each element receiving a new prefix, where each prefix is a unique value. Now semantically speaking of course this doesn't matter, but I worry about the possible overhead of this (both in terms of having to create new namespace prefixes that are *globally* unique to the app server as far as I can tell, there must be some synchronisation there? and in terms of un-neccessary traffic over the wire as the XML is much 'fatter' than neccessary) I *think* this is an issue with the relationship between ODE and AXIS2, rather than woodstox as I use that in a different portion of my app? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
