RE: wsdl2java question

2007-08-31 Thread Geoff Peart
I guess my problem is that the error message isn't really clear, I'm in
a situation of putting an API out there to third parties, and so I've
gone with a pretty strict API to make message validation easier, but I'm
finding ADB error messages to be rather terse and uninformative.  So I'm
kind of curious if there is a hooking point where I can extend the ADB
layer to return a more meaningful message, something akin to what you
would get out of validating the request against the schema.  In my
example the absence, or misplacement of that categoryId field returns an
error indicating that it is categoryId that is broken, but it is
possible for there to many instances of category id so with out a
reference to which one, or a line number, or even a more clear error
message a user is sort of left with an uneasy feeling on exactly what
went wrong.

 

Has anyone else tackled complex validation scenario's?

I think it has pick a wrong version some where.

Hi,

I'm running Axis 1.2.1's wsdl2java against a WSDL, and when I look at
the generated code it says:

This file was auto-generated from WSDL by the Apache Axis 1.4 Apr 22,
2006

Shouldn't this say Apache Axis 1.2.1?  I'm a bit confused...

Thank you.

they zero in on the one line of the exception that does matter:

 

 faultstring  org.apache.axis2.databinding.ADBException: Unexpected 
subelement CategoryId / faultstring 


this means ADB parser has encountered an in valid element. The reason for this 
most of the time is the request 
does not contain a requried element value.

eg lets take this element
xsd:element name=TestElement
xsd:complexType
xsd:sequence
xsd:element name=param1 type=xsd:string/ 
xsd:element name=param2 type=xsd:string/
/xsd:sequence
/xsd:complexType
/xsd:element

here both param1 and param2 are requried elements since they have the default 
minOccurs=1 value. 
a valid request for this elements is 
TestElement
param1test/param1
param2test/param2
/TestElement

but if it receives a reqeust without param1 i.e. 
TestElement
param2test/param2
/TestElement

Now after reading TestElement adb parser expects the param1 since it is a 
required element. but it gets param2 which is an unexpected element.

So it throws an excpetion saying unexcpeted subelement param2.

To debug this first locate the CategoryID and check it has received the correct 
element before that.

You can use the -Eosv option to let adb thinks every element is optional. 

Amila.

 

But it doesn't really say where in the message that value was out of 
place, or why its wrong, as in the case:

 

 faultstring  For input string: 2320asdf / faultstring 

 

Where now I have the element in the correct location, but with an 
invalid value (mixed text instead of a numerical value.)

 

So I'm at an impasse, do I rewrite my API to expect virtually any 
value, but at least in a rigid structure, and do my validation in code, or 
leave my 3rd parties with obscure error messages?

 

I'm hoping there is a 3rd choice I've missed?

 

Thanks

Original WSDLs and more information on service.xml

2007-06-20 Thread Geoff Peart
Is there more detailed information available on authoring the
service.xml file?  What I'm specifically attempting is to include my
copies of the WSDL and XSD in the AAR and have them referenced by the
?WSDL and ?XSD request parameters.

 

What further complicates my issue is that my XSD imports a number of
other XSD to support my messages, and I wish to expose them, in there
original form.

 

Thanks

Geoffrey
