Hi Andrei, team
I am writing a CXF client with MTOM by using dynamic dispatch style of service
invocation. I understand that dynamic dispatch requires request message to be
constructed manually.
But I would like to avoid manual insertion of <inc:include href> XOP element in
the SOAP message to enable MTOM.
I am currently doing the following steps to generate a CXF mtom client
1. Enable MTOM using
((SOAPBinding)binding).setMTOMEnabled(true);
2. Construct SOAP request message programmatically
SOAPMessage request = MessageFactory.newInstance().createMessage();
//create attachment and add it to request
AttachmentPart attach = request.createAttachmentPart(new DataHandler(new
FileDataSource("F:\\CXF3\\CXF3\\src\\me.bmp")));
attach.setContentId("image");
request.addAttachmentPart(attach);
SOAPElement operation = body.addChildElement("testDataHandler", "typ",
"http://cxf.apache.org/mime/types");
/*Here, I am creating the SOAP body with appropriate nodes needed for MTOM -
<inc:include href="image". . . */
SOAPElement value1 = operation.addChildElement("attachinfo",
"tns","http://cxf.apache.org/mime/types");
SOAPElement xop =
value1.addChildElement("Include","inc","http://www.w3.org/2004/08/xop/include");
xop.addAttribute(QName.valueOf("href"),"cid:image");
Generated request message :
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:typ="http://cxf.apache.org/mime/types">
<soapenv:Header xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"/>
<soap:Body>
<typ:testDataHandler>
<tns:attachinfo xmlns:tns="http://cxf.apache.org/mime/types"><inc:Include
xmlns:inc="http://www.w3.org/2004/08/xop/include"
href="cid:image"/></tns:attachinfo>
</typ:testDataHandler>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
The above request works well. However, manual inclusion of DOM elements like
this does not appear clean and maintainable. Could you tell me how else can we
achieve this to generate the request dynamically?
I have the same issue with SWA CXF dispatch client where I am including
<cid:image> node programmatically which I want to avoid.
Thanks,
