Hi, Thanks. For time being, let us forget about attachment part. what is the differenece b/w constructing SOAP Request with BeanMapping and using SAAJ. When i check both th request's using TCPMON, i did not find any difference,except extra reference in AXIS, So except for attachement, remaining things are same. Please correct me if i am wrong.

My focus is to send a SOAP Request to the webservice,which is already exposed and get the response . That's it nothing more than that. No manipulation, nothing What is bothering me is that whether i have to pass the bean class to AXIS / create the SOAP Request using SAAJ. One more thing is i need to send one attachment along with this SOAPRequest. So if i go for bean , how can i pass this attachement.

I believe what you want is to take that XML and send it back out in another slightly different format. That amounts to changing from one schema to another, and I believe that's outside the scope of Axis2. You might be able to write a simple translator framework that converts one XML to another using mappings between one property to another, but it might not be straightforward as that. Keep in mind that Axis2 primaly handles sending/receiving SOAP. It does comes with various data binding options built-in. The actual data binding tool used (i.e. XmlBeans) mainly handles serialization between XML and the Java type for a given XSD schema. To change from one schema to another, you'd have do write additional code for that. -Vinh --------------------------------- From: Seetha Rama Krishna [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 11:46 AM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: difference b/w bean mapping using SOAPBody Hi, I am new bie to AXIS. I have to send a SOAP Request in the following format <general> <item>SOAP</item> <version>1.1</version> </general> <item> <foodItem> <type>liquid</type> <quantity>1</quantity> </fooditem> </item> I had gone through SAAJ API and found that it is very easy to construct the same SOAP Request. My question is the same can be build using bean mapping concept in AXIS.. Is there any difference in sending the SOAP Request using AXIS with bean serialization an by using SAAJ API. Can any body suggest me how to proceed further Thanks, ram --------------------------------- Chat on a cool, new interface. No download required. Click here.
