Based on your examples, it seems like it is probably having trouble lining up interfaces/names... Have you tried
@Reference(name="CreditCardValidation") ? ________________________________________ From: Stefan Kolb [stefan-k...@web.de] Sent: Monday, January 18, 2010 3:25 PM To: user@tuscany.apache.org Subject: Binding to external Webservices Im trying to build a simple Composite that includes a component which uses a reference to invoke an external webservice. PaymentComposite (Composite) --> CreditCardComponent (Component) --> CreditCardValidation (Reference) Composite Code: <composite xmlns="http://www.osoa.org/xmlns/sca/1.0" name="PaymentComposite"> <component name="CreditCardComponent"> <implementation.java class="implementation.CreditCardPaymentImpl"/> <reference name="CreditCardValidation"> <interface.wsdl interface="http://www.webservicex.net#wsdl.interface(CCCheckerSoap)"/> <binding.ws wsdlElement="http://www.webservicex.net#wsdl.port(CCChecker/CCCheckerSoap)" /> </reference> </component> </composite> As an example im using the Creditcard Webservice from webservicex.net. 1. I included the *.wdsl in the root of the project (CreditCard.wsdl). 2. I did a mapping of the *.wsdl to a Java Interface (Is that always necessary? If i want to use it in Java yes?!) -> CreditCard.java @Remotable public interface CreditCard { public String ValidateCardNumber(String cardType, String cardNumber); } 3. I injected the Reference in my Impl (CreditCardPaymentImpl) @Reference public void setCreditCard(CreditCard creditCard) { System.out.println("Injected Service"); this.creditCard = creditCard; } 4. Tried to use this scenario in a client class SCADomain scaDomain = SCADomain.newInstance("PaymentComposite.composite"); CreditCardPayment helloWorldService = scaDomain.getService(CreditCardPayment.class, "CreditCardComponent"); ... But i still get the error - Reference not found for component reference: Component = CreditCardComponent Reference = CreditCardValidation What am i doing wrong? I tried to use several things there and ended up totally confused because this trivial looking thing doesnt work :( Sincerely Stefan ___________________________________________________________ Preisknaller: WEB.DE DSL Flatrate für nur 16,99 Euro/mtl.! http://produkte.web.de/go/02/
