RE: ( Please Help ) Urgent Request: How to send a response in a Custom Provider

[Damien Vincent]

Hi,

 

I think that you can't bypass the <methodResponse> and </methodResponse> tags wich are part of SOAP RPC specifications...

 

Well, I'm nearly in the same situation, and my Provider returns a response wich looks like that :

 

<SoapEnvelope>

<SoapBody>

<methodResponse>

 

<A>

<B>String</B>

</A>

 

</methodResponse>

</SoapBody>

</SoapEnvelope>

 

To encode my response into (literal) XML, here is the code I use (when creating the Parameter instance for result):

 

_resp= new Parameter( RPCConstants.ELEM_RETURN ,

                                    Element.class,

                                    _myElementInstance,

                                    null);

 

_myElementInstance is an instance of org.w3c.dom.Element ...

You can obtain Element instance using a Dom parser or any kind of DOM implementation.

 

Nothing more is to be declared, the XLM encoder (XMLParameterSerializer) is already registered into the mapping registery.

 

Regards.

Objet : ( Please Help ) Urgent Request: How to send a response in a Custom Provider

Hi,

I am using a custom provider to provide a response to a request. I want the
request to be of the following nature

Soap Header
<A>
<B>String</B>
</A>
and I have the completed xml soap body as a String.

I am not able to do it.

I get the following response

Soap Header
<methodResponse>
<A>
<bytes encoding="base-64" >jgsgdjsgfjsagfkjagfkjgfj
</bytes>
<A>
</methodResponse>

I dont want the methodResponse and the return value as bytes. I dont know why
it encodes everyhting.
Please help me fix this problem. Here is the code snippet that sends a
response within the invoke
method of the custom provider....

Parameter param = new Parameter("A",  
org.apache.xerces.dom.ElementImpl.class,
(org.apache.xerces.dom.ElementImpl)base.getFirstChild() ,null);
Response resp = new Response
(
 call.getTargetObjectURI(),   // URI
 call.getMethodName(),  // Method
  param,      // ReturnValue
  null,                  // Params
 null,    // Header
  call.getEncodingStyleURI(),                  // encoding
  res );          // response soapcontext - not supported yet

                   Envelope env = resp.buildEnvelope();
         StringWriter  sw = new StringWriter();
                   env.marshall( sw, call.getSOAPMappingRegistry(), res );
                   res.setRootPart( sw.toString(),
Constants.HEADERVAL_CONTENT_TYPE_UTF8);
