It is my fault I did not communicate well enough what i wanted. Here is
my final attempt.
This is what i want : add new product utilizing remote access via SOAP
This is what i have: ofbiz has service "createProduct" that requires
auth="true"
This is what i know: ofbiz services are not Web_services
You suggested in previous exchange to created a wrapper in ofbiz (ofbiz
wrapper will call createProduct service ) that can be called using soap.
I created ofbiz wrapper and when i test thru the webtools (used login
admin/ofbiz) it let me add new product, but when i call from the remote
client i am getting a message that i have to login to complete transaction.
The question is how to login within ofbiz wrapper before calling
createProduct implementation.
Below the code that logins successfully, but does not pass credentials
to the service
public static Map createLHSProduct(DispatchContext dctx, Map context) {
GenericDelegator delegator = dctx.getDelegator();
try {
String loginuser;
String loginpassword;
String productType;
String productName;
// get the input parameter
loginuser = (String) context.get("loginuser");
Debug.logInfo("loginuser = " + loginuser, module);
loginpassword = (String) context.get("loginpassword");
Debug.logInfo("loginpassword = " + loginpassword,module);
productType = (String) context.get("productTypeId");
Debug.logInfo("productTypeId = " + productType,module);
productName = (String) context.get("internalName");
Debug.logInfo("internalName = " + productName,module);
// login
context.put("login.username", loginuser);
context.put("login.password", loginpassword);
Map loginresult = LoginServices.userLogin(dctx, context);
Debug.logInfo("loginresult = " + loginresult,module);
//create new product
context.put("productTypeId", productType);
context.put("internalName", productName);
Map productresult = SimpleMethod.runSimpleService(
"org/ofbiz/product/product/ProductServices.xml",
"createProduct", dctx, context);
return result;
} catch (GenericEntityException ex) {
return ServiceUtil.returnError(ex.getMessage());
} catch (Exception ex) {
return ServiceUtil.returnError(ex.getMessage());
}
}

there is code already that you can follow the flow.
it save me having to explain what is already used.
you can follow the flow of that code to write you wrapper.
for instance you are trying to deal with a product.
so if you follow the code flow that creates a product in ofbiz
you will have a template on how to do this in your wrapper.

I am not sure I follow. All what I want from this ofbiz wrapper to
obtain credential in order to complete adding new product.
This ofbiz wrapper is being called thru soap and has to be able to login
and process new product.

did you check each return Map to check for a "success" message
Jacek Wagner sent the following on 9/4/2008 3:01 PM:
Thank you for the tip. The return map includes error "You must be
logged in to complete the Create an Product process." I hoped that by
calling LoginServices.userLogin.....with admin/ofbiz (second task)
I am
receiving all credentials I need to complete the task.

Simple services don't provide exceptions.
They do return a Map that has error messages in it.
https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/webtools/control/availableServices?sel_service_name=createProduct
take a look at the Out parameters
Note this is for
org/ofbiz/product/product/ProductServices.xml
and uses a map and runsync

The following is an ofbiz wrapper that performs three tasks:
login, get
description for a given product, create new product
When run from webtools (performs successfully all three tasks. when
called as a soap performs successfully login & get descriptions for a
given product. It also run thru create new product, but does not
create
new product neither throw any exception(s).
Wondering Jacek
public static Map createLHSProduct(DispatchContext dctx, Map
context) {
GenericDelegator delegator = dctx.getDelegator();
try {
String productId;
String loginuser;
String loginpassword;
String productType;
String productName;
// get the input parameter
productId = (String) context.get("productId");
Debug.logInfo("productId = " + productId, module);
loginuser = (String) context.get("loginuser");
Debug.logInfo("loginuser = " + loginuser,
module); //prints to the console or console.log
loginpassword = (String) context.get("loginpassword");
Debug.logInfo("loginpassword = " + loginpassword,
module); //prints to the console or console.log
productType = (String) context.get("productTypeId");
Debug.logInfo("productTypeId = " + productType,
module); //prints to the console or console.log
productName = (String) context.get("internalName");
Debug.logInfo("internalName = " + productName,
module); //prints to the console or console.log
// login
context.put("login.username", loginuser);
context.put("login.password", loginpassword);
Map loginresult = LoginServices.userLogin(dctx, context);
Debug.logInfo("loginresult = " + loginresult,
module); //prints to the console or console.log
//get description for a given product
Map queryResult = delegator.findByPrimaryKey("Product",
UtilMisc.toMap("productId", productId));
Map result = UtilMisc.toMap("description", productId);
if (queryResult != null) {
result.put("description",
queryResult.get("description"));
}
//create new product
context.remove("productId");
context.put("productTypeId", productType);
context.put("internalName",
productName); Map
productresult = SimpleMethod.runSimpleService(
"org/ofbiz/product/product/ProductServices.xml",
"createProduct", dctx, context);
return result;
} catch (GenericEntityException ex) {//required if you use
delegator in Java
return ServiceUtil.returnError(ex.getMessage());
} catch (Exception ex) {//required if you use delegator in
Java
return ServiceUtil.returnError(ex.getMessage());

}
