Guys,
Dirck here again. I have read several mails regarding this issue. I have not
seen one that illustrates my exact problem. The key here is that I want to
recieve literal xml in my response but want to supply a user defined object
as the requesting parameter. This code actually executes the service fine
and reads the arguements out of my object. The
response gets lost though, even though I specified literal xml encoding as
the default encoding for my document. My Apache Soap Service running on
Weblogic 5.1 has the following characteristics:
Note: The following code is a snippet.
Server:
public Element getResearch(ResearchArguments args)
{
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder xdb = dbf.newDocumentBuilder ();
Document doc = xdb.newDocument ();
Element researchElement = doc.createElement("Whatever");
// Extracts fields from the ResearchArguments class and creates a
dynamic
// research elements based on the information.
return researchElement;
}
Client:
public Element sendRequest()
{
url = new URL(routerUrl);
ResearchArguments args = new
ResearchArguments("data1","data2","data3");
SOAPMappingRegistry smr = new SOAPMappingRegistry();
BeanSerializer beanSer = new BeanSerializer();
smr.mapTypes(Constants.NS_URI_SOAP_ENC, new
QName("urn:xml-soap-args-demo", "args") , ResearchArguments.class,
beanSer,
beanSer);
call.setTargetObjectURI("urn:" + service);
call.setMethodName(method);
call.setEncodingStyleURI(Constants.NS_URI_LITERAL_XML);
call.setSOAPMappingRegistry(smr);
params.addElement(new Parameter("args",
ResearchArguments.class,
args,
Constants.NS_URI_SOAP_ENC));
call.setParams(params);
resp = call.invoke(url, "");
// A fault gets generated from the server after this line
}
Exception:
Generated fault:
Fault Code = SOAP-ENV:Server
Fault String = java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No Serializer found
to
serialize a 'org.w3c.dom.Element' using encoding style
'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'.
