[activesoap-user] generate SOAP body

[skoobi]

Hi,

I'm trying to work with JBI (java Business Integration) services, that are
basically WSDL-described services.

In order to invoque a service, I need to generate a single part WSDL1.1 message,
which would somewhat look like, for example  :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<AllOrders xmlns="uri:com.bptest.types">
  <Order>
    <OrderId>$sequence$</OrderId>
    <OrderType>BookOrder</OrderType>
    <OrderDetails>
      <BookOrder>
        <id>$sequence$</id>
....

I would likely work with POJOs, but any other easy method is welcome.

Is it possible, with ActiveSOAP, to generate such XML format by tellign it to
marshall my AllOrders class, for example... ?
I don't need to invoque the service, just get a string with this content, my JBI
container will take care of the rest.

If you have any tip, even without using ActiveSOAP, I'm open.

Thanks a lot,
Sami Dalouche

Sure. The decision to make is what POJO <-> XML marshalling tool to  
use. Currently ActiveSOAP supports JAXB 2.0, XStream and XMLBeans as  
examples of XML <-> POJO marshalling tools.

If you can use Java 5 then JAXB 2.0 comes highly recommended - its  
the best Java <-> XML/XSD marshalling tool around by some margin. BTW  
for simplicity when working with web services from a POJO nature the  
JAX-WS stack is pretty darn good (an implementation of JAX-WS & JSR  
181 using JAXB 2.0).

Ah OK, then you might just wanna use JAXB 2.0 directly in a JBI  
component then? Sounds like you don't even need a SOAP stack for that  
part?

Hi,

OK Thanks. I'll look at which JAXB 2.0 options I have.
and no, it only looks like I need JAXB, because my only need is to marshall :)
