I almost got it !!! (Axis is great to use !... I love it when API's
are so intuitive)
I just miss a small part to send the answer message I've built back to
the client. Here is the new cocoonWS function I came up with (with
plenty of debugging code in the middle :-P)
function webservice(){
var module = cocoon.parameters["module"];
clog("module is:" + module + "\n");
//getting the envelope out of the request (can be done only once)
var soapEnvelope = new java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream();
cocoon.processPipelineTo("soapEnvelope", null, soapEnvelope);
clog("Request was:\n" + soapEnvelope + "\n");
var message = new org.apache.axis.Message(soapEnvelope.toString());
clog("Message length was: " + message.getContentLength() + "\n");
var soapPart = message.getSOAPPart();
clog("soapPart was :\n" + soapPart + "\n");
var envelope = soapPart.getEnvelope();
clog("envelope was :\n" + envelope + "\n");
var body = envelope.getBody();
clog("body was :\n" + body + "\n");
var it = body.getChildElements();
var messageContent = it.next();
clog("messageContent was :\n" + messageContent + "\n");
var soapMethod = messageContent.getElementName().getLocalName();
clog("soapMethod was : " + soapMethod + "\n");
/*
* Now that we have the method, we generate the according parameters and
* execute the code for the called method
*/
if(soapMethod == "echo"){
clog("echo called");
//generate the parameter
var soapParameter = messageContent.getValue();
clog("soapParameter: " + soapParameter);
//process the method (echo in this case)
/*
* Here we compute something e.g. some businessprocess
* can be executed (sendMail, ftpUpload,...)
* for the echo Method it would be:
* //var answer = parameter;
* but we put this right in the answer.
*/
var answerEnvelope = new SOAPEnvelope();
var answerContent = new SOAPBodyElement(new
PrefixedQName("cocoonWS","result","cws"));
answerContent.addTextNode(soapParameter);
answerEnvelope.addBodyElement(answerContent);
clog("answerEnvelope was :\n" + answerEnvelope + "\n");
//send the answer
//AND THE PROBLEM IS HERE CAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SEND
//THE CONTENT OF answerContent BACK TO THE USER
clog("done.");
return;
}
else { /* here you can add more methods */
//setting the answer if no method matched
//TODO in this case we should generate a SOAP-FAULT
var answer = "The method you have called is not understood by
this server. " +
"Sorry!";
cocoon.sendPage("soapAnswer", {"answer":answer});
clog("no method matched, sending error-statment");
return;
}
}
Any ideas out there to replace my "uppercase desperate call" with
something that actually works ?
BTW this works perfectly and it's much cleaner than the previous
approach (no more JXTemplate and XSLT to extract SOAP data) but I
still lose HTTP headers from the initial request because I build a
message from the received SOAP envelope instead of getting a
MessageContent built from the servlet request. So does anyone have an
idea for that... ?
