demos/xml-bigbank fails because remote services aren't available
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TUSCANY-3690
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-3690
Project: Tuscany
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: Java-SCA-1.6
Reporter: Simon Nash
Assignee: Simon Nash
Fix For: Java-SCA-1.6.1
The xml-bigbank demo is failing frequently (possibly permanently) because of
unavailability of the exchange rate RSS feed and the stock quote web service
that it uses.
Based on a large number of attempts over the last few days:
1. The currency exchange rate RSS feed at
http://ansuz.sooke.bc.ca/rippy/exchange/ seems to be down permanently. This
causes a runtime exception when attempting to access the data from this feed.
2. The WSDL import from http://www.webservicex.com/stockquote.asmx?WSDL works
only rarely. This causes a contribution load failure because the <binding.ws>
element that uses this WSDL definition can't be processed.
3. The service endpoint at http://www.webservicex.com/stockquote.asmx works
only rarely. This causes a runtime exception when attempting to invoke the web
service.
This demo isn't useful if it never works. I suspect this has been the case for
some considerable time, given that no-one has noticed the separate databinding
problem described by TUSCANY-3689 even though this has been broken for over a
year.
