SOAP with attachment over mule using CXF

[Richard Swart]

I am trying to develop a inbound SOAP service on Mule that can accept attachments as well in SOAP.

My configuration:

In mule coniguration file I have :
               <service name="serviceone">
                        <inbound>
                                <cxf:inbound-endpoint address="http://localhost:63081/hello">
                                        <cxf:inInterceptors>
                                                <spring:bean class="net.syscon.mule.test.MySoapInterceptor" />
                                        </cxf:inInterceptors>
                                </cxf:inbound-endpoint>
                        </inbound>
                        <component class="net.syscon.mule.test.TestHelloWorldImpl" />
                </service>
I have the jar file with proper classes in the $MULE_HOME/user/lib directory.

The code for net.syscon.mule.test.MySoapInterceptor is :

package mule.test;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;

import java.io.OutputStream;

import java.util.Collection;

import java.util.Iterator;

import javax.activation.DataHandler;

import org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.SoapMessage;
import org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.interceptor.AbstractSoapInterceptor;
import org.apache.cxf.message.Attachment;
import org.apache.cxf.phase.Phase;

public class MySoapInterceptor extends AbstractSoapInterceptor {
    public MySoapInterceptor() {
        super(Phase.RECEIVE);
    }

    public void handleMessage(SoapMessage soapMessage) {
        System.out.println("I am innnnnnn SOAPmesg interceptor.   ");
        try {
            System.out.println("DEBUG 1 In SOAP attachment thing.");
            Collection<Attachment> col = soapMessage.getAttachments();
            Iterator<Attachment> it = col.iterator();
            while (it.hasNext()) {
                Attachment at = it.next();
                DataHandler dh = at.getDataHandler();
                InputStream is = dh.getInputStream();
                File f = new File("ddd.jpeg");
                OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(f);
                byte[] b = new byte[1024];
                while(is.available() > 0){
                    is.read(b);
                    os.write(b);
                }
                System.out.println("DEBUG 2 Finished SOAP attachment thing..");
                is.close();
                os.close();
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

When I execute the this with a SOAP with attachment I get a NullPointerException in the net.syscon.mule.test.MySoapInterceptor.  The object returned by soapmessage.getAttachments(); is NULL.

I have check the SOAP message sent by the client and it confirms to the SOAP standards.

Can anyone help in figuring out why I am mule is returning on the call soapmessage.getAttachments() please?

Further debugging revealed that the error occurs when I try to get the attachment in the Interceptor.
It throws
