Re: [xfire-user] Problems developing a SOAP-Client

[Tomek Sztelak]

Did you do any changes in server config ? Can you try to run client
without your custom handler ?

Hello,



I am trying to develop some webservices using xfire, and most works very
well, but my client will not work.



First, I used the bookservice example with its three methods: getBooks(),
findBook(isbn), getBooksMap().



Using Soap-UI I can call all three methods well and the correct values
return, but with the client, the array that is returned by getBooks() is
empty, and the method getBooksMap() ends in a
"org.codehaus.xfire.XFireRuntimeException: Could not invoke
service.. Nested exception is
org.codehaus.xfire.fault.XFireFault: Fault:
java.lang.NullPointerException".



There seems to be something wrong with the more complex data types I think.
Creating a simple method in the service returning a string works fine.



Can someone help me or give me a hint of what to do?



Thanks for reading,



Nick











PS: "My" client-code (its mostly from the example…):







package service.test;



import java.net.MalformedURLException;

import java.util.Map;



import org.codehaus.xfire.client.Client;

import org.codehaus.xfire.client.XFireProxyFactory;

import catega.test.OutHeaderHandler;

import org.codehaus.xfire.service.Service;

import
org.codehaus.xfire.service.binding.ObjectServiceFactory;

            Book[] books = service.getBooks();

            Map booksMap = service.getBooksMap();

            System.out.print("Received map with "+booksMap.size()+" book(s)
\n");

            System.out.println("BOOKS:");



            for (int i = 0; i < books.length; i++)

            {

                System.out.println(books[i].getTitle());

            }

        }

        catch (MalformedURLException e)

        {

            e.printStackTrace();

        }

    }

}
