Hi Camel Experts, I need to invoke a SOAP based web service using Camel. Or in other words my requirements that my application would push data on JMS queue. This data would further be handed over to a third party that has exposed a web service this purpose. The web service would also send back a reply.
For sake of simplicity I am using the Web Service available at: http://www.webservicex.net/length.asmx REQUEST: <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:web="http://www.webserviceX.NET/";> <soapenv:Header/> <soapenv:Body> <web:ChangeLengthUnit> <web:LengthValue>100</web:LengthValue> <web:fromLengthUnit>Inches</web:fromLengthUnit> <web:toLengthUnit>Feet</web:toLengthUnit> </web:ChangeLengthUnit> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> RESPONSE: <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> <soap:Body> <ChangeLengthUnitResponse xmlns="http://www.webserviceX.NET/";> <ChangeLengthUnitResult>8.3333333333333339</ChangeLengthUnitResult> </ChangeLengthUnitResponse> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> From documentation, it seems that I can use CXF component for this purpose. However, I am not able to get clarity about the same. I am trying to build the route on the following lines: from("cxf:http://www.webservicex.net/length.asmx?wsdlURL=http://www.webservicex.net/length.asmx?WSDL&dataFormat=MESSAGE";) .to("log:SOAPWSConsume?showAll=true&multiline=true&level=ERROR"); I have tried other options like serviceName, portName but have not been successful in invoking the same. An example of a error: java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.apache.crimson.tree.XmlDocument.setDocumentURI(Ljava/lang/String;)V at org.apache.cxf.staxutils.StaxUtils.read(StaxUtils.java:1125) at org.apache.cxf.wsdl11.WSDLManagerImpl.loadDefinition(WSDLManagerImpl.java:248) So, my confusions (and hence queries) are: # Do i need to generate client side stubs using the utilities like wsdl2java # How can i provide the input parameters (like length, convert from, convert to) # If I need to provide authentication information, how can i provide the username password. A pointer to a working example would be of great help. ___________________ Thks & brgds P Manchanda Mobile: +91-9811210374
