AFAIK setting the property on the messageContext is the only way.

[Axis2] SOAP header elements

[Todd Allen]

Is there a preferred way to access the SOAP header elements from 
within the service class of an Axis2 web service?  I realize that the 
MessageContext can be obtained and a property set on it for later 
use.  However, it is preferable not to expose the MessageContext 
object in the service layer.

Is there a better/different way to do this?

I'm using Axis2 version 1.1.

Thanks,
Todd

wsdl2java generated code does not databind headers at ther server side.
if you want to do that see MessageReceiver class fromOM method to see how
you can poplate the xmlbean
objects from an OM element (which you have)

Can you be a bit more specific?  Which stub are you referring to?
In this case the invoke method is being called from a handler class.  I
don't see a fromOM method in any of the classes generated for the elements
in the SOAP header.

Re: [Axis2] SOAP header elements

Keith,

Thanks very much for the reply.

Can you elaborate on your last statement of "drill down to the XMLBeans 
class?"  How would I do that?  I think that's the last piece of my puzzle.
Is this similar to the fromOM method I see in the message receiver class 
generated by WSDL2Java?


Thanks,

See you are not getting the point here. ServiceClient is for users who
just want to send and receive some XML chunks. In ServiceClient there
are quite a number of convenient methods to do things, which are not
available. So are you suggesting to have all the methods that are in
ServiceClient to be available in OperationClient. No.
ServiceClient is for simple users and OperationClient is for more
adventurous users who wanna get some more control.
 


Well the problem here is my non-Java mindset. :(
I am too much dependent on the ServiceClient API, and you guys are too 
much accustomed to this API to understand my mindset ;)

Anyway, thanks to the explanation, I get the point at last :)

 


Now I am confused as to what I should be using. How
should I go about making my decision? If you can point me to some docs
that would be great.
   



As you know we are still improving Axis2/java docs and I agree that it
is not complete. Perhaps we can learn a lot about documentation from
Axis2/C project ;)
 


Well I do not think Axis2/C is there yet either :)


If you are curious about engaging a module, this is how you do it.

AxisModule module = axisConfig.getModule(moduleName);
   if (module != null) {
   axisService.engageModule(module);
   } else {
   throw new AxisFault("Unable to engage module : " +
moduleName);
   }

Don't think I am smart to write this code. Just copied and pasted from
ServiceClient.engageModule method. So in Axis2/Java we follow the
concept of "on-demand" documentation :D
 


Again, my problem was, I was only looking at the API.
Well, code is the best form of documentation, next time I should also 
have a look into the code  :)


Thanks,
Samisa...

Samisa and all,

You have a very good point here, except that you started from the wrong
class. The complete API for the users to use is the OperationClient API.
But since most users, yes *most* user's concern is to send and receieve
XML fragment which is supported in ServiceClient API.

There are lots of things missing in ServiceClient. From the day one
ServiceClient API was meant to be the simple API for simple work. Most
of the users do not look at SOAP message. Especially because of J2EE
containers users even do not look at the XML fragment. That is why we
gave a convenient API on top of OperationClient.

If you want to look at the SOAP message or if you want to change the
engine or if you want to change MEP, then we consider that as an
advanced operation which require him to use OperationClient. One can
come-up with various use cases which seems simple to them and might
wonder why it is not included in ServiceClient. The simple answer is
Axis2 was there for a long time, more than 2 years and ServiceClient
must have been there at least for 2 years, but we found out that users
are satisfied with the existing way of only dealing with OMElement in
and OMElement out.

Again I totally agree with you that users need to face extra bit of
hassle when they want to add little bit more to what they are using with
ServiceClient, but that is intentional.

Thanks,
Chinthaka

Hi Jack ,
If this is in the server side , you can get the message context and
from
that you can get the SOAP envelope and from the soap envelope you can
get the soap headers.

If it is the in the client side  , the the process is ,
- First you get the last operation context from the service client
- and then follow the above steps.
 
   

 
That looks like too much work for me to get a simple thing done  :(

Why not have some method like:
getLastResponseSoapEnvelope()
to service client API and do all the context access stuff within that
method ?
   




Idea is cool  I am +1 on doing that , but ...
 


One of the design goal of service client was to provide a convenient
API  for  simple usage (cater for average users), and the assumption was
that user only trying to send  OM element and trying to get OM element .
If you need to do advanced work like accessing SOAP headers  , then you
can use OperationClient.
 


OK, cool, I forgot about operation client. However, there still remains
a minor concern about the usability/maintainability of the stuff. This
case is an ideal example - the use writes some code, and gets it working
- now wants to do more with the API, and he/she has to switch from one
API to the other to get the things done :(

Re: [Axis2] SOAP header elements

[keith chapman]

Hi jack,

U can use the following once you have the SOAPEnvelop to get the header
block.

SOAPHeader header = envelope.getHeader();

Once you get that you can get the specific header you want by using
header.getHeaderBlocksWithNSURI();

or get all the headers and iterate through them using
header.getChildren();

Once you have the header block you can drill down to the xmlBeans class.

Thanks,
Keith.

Re: [Axis2] SOAP header elements

[Eran Chinthaka]

Samisa and all,

You have a very good point here, except that you started from the wrong
class. The complete API for the users to use is the OperationClient API.
But since most users, yes *most* user's concern is to send and receieve
XML fragment which is supported in ServiceClient API.

There are lots of things missing in ServiceClient. From the day one
ServiceClient API was meant to be the simple API for simple work. Most
of the users do not look at SOAP message. Especially because of J2EE
containers users even do not look at the XML fragment. That is why we
gave a convenient API on top of OperationClient.

If you want to look at the SOAP message or if you want to change the
engine or if you want to change MEP, then we consider that as an
advanced operation which require him to use OperationClient. One can
come-up with various use cases which seems simple to them and might
wonder why it is not included in ServiceClient. The simple answer is
Axis2 was there for a long time, more than 2 years and ServiceClient
must have been there at least for 2 years, but we found out that users
are satisfied with the existing way of only dealing with OMElement in
and OMElement out.

Again I totally agree with you that users need to face extra bit of
hassle when they want to add little bit more to what they are using with
ServiceClient, but that is intentional.

Thanks,
Chinthaka

Re: [Axis2] SOAP header elements

[Jack Sprat]

OK.  I was able to get the header elements using the getChildElements() method 
and iterating.

But the XMLBenas question remains.  How do I get at the class created by 
XMLBeans for these 2 header elements?

Thanks,
T


Jack Sprat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Deepal,

Yes, this is server side.  I can get the SOAPEnvelope but then how do I get the 
contents of the elements themselves?  In this case it is a user and password 
element.  The Axis2 JavaDocs have a return value of 
org.apache.axiom.soap.SOAPEnvelope for the getEnvelope() method but I don't 
have any docs for that type.

Also, does the class created by XMLBeans for the user and password elements 
come into play at all?  I was expecting to be able to pull in those classes 
created by XMLBeans for these 2  elements.

Thanks,
T

That looks like too much work for me to get a simple thing done  :( 
Why not have some method like:

getLastResponseSoapEnvelope()

method ?

OK, cool, I forgot about operation client. However, there still remains a minor 
concern about the usability/maintainability of the stuff. This case is an ideal 
example - the use writes some code, and gets it working - now wants to do more

One of the design goal of service client was to provide a convenient

that user only trying to send  OM element and trying to get OM element .
If you need to do advanced work like accessing SOAP headers  , then you

Re: [Axis2] SOAP header elements

[robert lazarski]

That's correct, just don't link to .93 code ;-) .

The OP indicated that he wants to get the header in a handle I think. In
that case, the message context is already set. See MessageContext.IN_FLOWand
MessageContext.OUT_FLOW to know whether its a request or a response. See
org/apache/axis2/handlers/soapmonitor/SOAPMonitorHandler.java for an example
of all this. Of course at the handler level this is all independent of the
databinding method used.

HTH,
Robert

To get to the SOAPHeader[1], I believe you just need to call:
msgContext.getEnvelope().getHeader() within this method.

Let us know if this works for you. (For my code above, I used ADB
databinding so the code may be different for you.)
