This helps, thank you. Your example goes further than the one in the how to.
Could you shed some light on this scenario? We want to use all the shopping cart functionality and are struggling with how to put
all the pieces together.
If I use OFBiz ecommerce as a guide and trace thru the code I see that from the ecommerce site if I click "add to cart" it calls a
request map called "additem" in the controller.
That request map calls the following event:
<event type="java" path="org.ofbiz.order.shoppingcart.ShoppingCartEvents"
invoke="addToCart"/>
which is not defined as a service. So we are a bit confused as to how we can mimick the shopping cart functionality thru web
services.
Should we call ShoppingCartEvents.addToCart() directly from our java class in Axis, and then use other methods defined as
services, such as ShoppingCartServices.getShoppingCartData() to return up the stack?

OK, I will be glad to help you, but please could you suggest me which Ofbiz
service you want to export?
I'm working with OpenTaps, so I don't know If OpenTaps will also have your
web service included in their distro (OpenTaps is built upon Ofbiz??)
Some example:
GenericDelegator delegator =
GenericDelegator.getGenericDelegator("default");
LocalDispatcher dispatcher =
GenericDispatcher.getLocalDispatcher("default",delegator);
GenericValue admin = null;
try {
admin = delegator.findByPrimaryKey("UserLogin",
UtilMisc.toMap("userLoginId", "admin"));
} catch (GenericEntityException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
Map result = null;
Object[] params = {
"login.username", un_username,
"login.password", un_password,
"domini", un_domini,
.... (more params)
"estat", un_estat,
"ip", una_ip,
"userLogin", admin
};
try {
result = dispatcher.runSync("put here the name of your ofbiz service",
UtilMisc.toMap(params));
} catch (GenericServiceException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Now get the result using result variable
Hope that helps!

OK that makes sense. Yes I agree it would not make sense to publish custom
services you have written for a customer. But examples of OFBiz standard
services being exported would be very helpful, along with the directory
structure, supporting files, etc. for deploying as an OFBiz component. For
example, did you deploy the entire binary distribution, or just axis2.war?
A jira issue that explains your solution along with a patch would be
fantastic! Before doing that, would you mind just replying to this thread
with a code sample showing the call to a standard OFBiz service and how
you are dealing with the results? It would be very timely as we are
struggling with this very thing right now.

Hello Vince,
Yes, I have deployed Axis2 as its own OFBiz component.
"The example code
will be a java file that exports two Ofbiz Services that come with Ofbiz
Distribution (now I'm exporting customer specific Ofbiz Services, that is
why it's nonsense to publish this java file.)"
I meant that it's nonsense to publish an example in which I export
customer
specific ofbiz services, because I have to provide also a lot of code that
the customer specific ofbiz service relies on, for instance, ofbiz service
minilang implementation, lot of subservices, views entities, etc, etc,
etc.
The purpose is just to show how to export ofbiz services that use complex
type parameters, so why not use as an example standard ofbiz services that
comes with Ofbiz Distribution? This was the only thing I tried to explain
before :-)
Regards,
Alfredo

So to be clear, you have deployed Axis2 as its own OFBiz component? Or
are
you still using the approach of deploying the war file under an existing
webapp directory in another component?
A patch would be very helpful. Not sure why you think it is "nonsense."
Working examples are extremely helpful to the community. Especially in
new
areas like this.
To submit a patch you must create an account on Jira, then create an
issue
and attach the patch file.
Looking forward to seeing what you have done!

Hello Jacques!
The Axis2 Ofbiz Component is simply an Ofbiz Component that has:
1. Axis2 1.4 Distribution stored in a subdirectory.
2. The Ofbiz build system is connected to Axis2 build system via an Ant
build.xml file
3. A java file that is a Web Services Facade to Ofbiz Services that want
to
be exported.
So, the only code that need to be published is:
1. The java file that is a Web Services Facade to Ofbiz Services that
want
to be exported.
This file contains simply a Java Class that has 1 wrapper method for
each Ofbiz Service that want to be exported. Axis2 does the job of
exporting
java methods as WebServices. It's amazing!
2. The build.xml of the component that builds the java file and puts the
class file in an specific Axis2 directory
The Ofbiz community may consider to include this ready to use Axis2 Ofbiz
component that includes Axis2 Distribution and some Ofbiz Services
exported
via SOAP as an example of use.
So, in this case the JIRA issue could be an idea more than code changes
of
existing Ofbiz code?
How can I publish this idea as a JIRA issue?
If the community thinks that is a good idea, then I will be glad to
provide
an example code (for instance 2 Ofbiz services that use complex types
exported via SOAP), the build.xml and the documentation. The example code
will be a java file that exports two Ofbiz Services that come with Ofbiz
Distribution (now I'm exporting customer specific Ofbiz Services, that is
why It's nonsense to publish this java file.)

Alfredo

Hello Alfredo,
Did you create a such Axis2 component ? If yes couls you think about
creating a Jira issue and submit a patch ?

Hello Dhruv!
A collection of Ofbiz services have been exposed as Web Services using
this
solution:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Export+Ofbiz+Services+that+use+complex+type+parameters+via+SOAP
These Web Services have been deployed in a production environment and
are
working perfectly fine.
I suggest you to follow the steps, and I will be glad to help you if
you
run
into trouble at some point in the process.
Once you finish you can create your own Axis2 Ofbiz Component to
provide
a
cleaner solution. This Axis2 Ofbiz Component will serve as a Web
Service
Facade to comunicate Ofbiz with other systems.

Alfredo Rueda

Hi Frns,
I am using "wsimport" tool to read an existing WSDL file of OFBiz
framework and want to generate artifacts. I need these because I am
doing load testing on Web Service and retrieve data like the average
time requierd to obtain the reponse from a webservice.
So I've following questions:
1) How to expose the existing WebServices of the OFBiz ?
2) What meaningful data will these services provide?
I am trying to expose a Web Service by using following syntax:
E:\WSDL>wsimport -d .
http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/SOAPService/cancelScheduledJob?WSDL
And I am getting following error :
warning: R2716 WSI-BasicProfile ver. 1.0, namespace attribute not

warning: R2716 WSI-BasicProfile ver. 1.0, namespace attribute not

error: Invalid wsdl:operation "cancelScheduledJob": its a
document-literal operation, message part must refer to a schema
element declaration
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
Dhruv.
