Hello!

Some inputs on question 1)

a) You can use the TCPMonitor to alter the incoming XML
b) In my Axis + Castor project I do use JUnit TestCases with non-castor
generated client code

Cheers,
Are T. Tysnes

Subject: Axis and Castor - newbie question


I've been experimenting using Axis and Castor along the lines described
in the IBM article:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-castor/
Everything's working fine, but I have a few questions:

1. I want to test that the WS messages are being validated against my
schema (after all, this is one of the main reasons I'm using Castor
rather than plain old WSDL2Java). My test set-up involves using the
Castor generated code on the client and server side, so it's impossible
to generate invalid XML! What's the simplest way to test this?

2. On the server side, I already have a set of DTOs that I must use
internal to the app. So I'm currently having to translate between the
Castor generated objects and my own DTOs, which is a pain. Ideally, I'd
like Castor to unmarshall/marshall directly to/from my DTOs. I've read
the provided Castor XML Mapping documentation but I can't see how to
integrate my Castor XML mapping file into my Axis+Castor solution. Can
this be done?

3. If the answer to 2. is yes, can the incoming WS request messages and
the outgoing WS response messages still be validated against my schema?

If the answer to 2 & 3 is yes, yippeeee!

Thanks for any help,
David
