component call another web service

[Marco Mascia-2]

I have a Java class (MyServiceImpl) that I expose as a web service in Mule as shown below.

       <service name="MyService">
            <inbound>
                <cxf:inbound-endpoint address=http://localhost:8888/services/Myservice" />
             </inbound>
            <component class="com.example.MyServiceImpl" />
        </service>

I have an operation called process shown below where I need to
save the request,
directly call or route to another mule proxy web service
save the response

        @WebService(endpointInterface = "com.example.MyService", serviceName = "MyService")
        public class MyServiceImpl implements MyService {
                public MyResponse process(MyRequest request) {

                        // write out request
                        // route or call web service directly
                        // write out response
                        return response;
                }

How do I call a proxy mule webservice within my component? I figure this is the only way to have access to the response.
Can I route it to an outbound endpoint and have access to the response in my component?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Component Bindings.

HTH,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
In MyService I have the following component binding.
<binding interface="com.example.services.AnotherService">
        <cxf:outbound-endpoint address="http://localhost:8888/services/anotherservice" proxy="true" />
</binding>

Declared another proxy service which calls the real service.
       <service name="AnotherService">
                <inbound>
        <cxf:inbound-endpoint address="http://localhost:8888/services/anotherservice"
  proxy="true" synchronous="true" />
    </inbound>
                    <outbound>
                        <pass-through-router>
                        <cxf:outbound-endpoint address="http://example.com/test.asmx"
                proxy="true" synchronous="true">
                  </cxf:outbound-endpoint>
                        </pass-through-router>
                    </outbound>
        </service>

Declared
public interface AnotherService {
        public void invoke(String request);
}

In MyServiceImpl.java
I call anotherService.invoke("<soapenv:Envelope...<soapenv:Body>..");

I get the following exception
org.apache.cxf.phase.PhaseInterceptorChain doIntercept
INFO: Application has thrown exception, unwinding now
org.apache.cxf.interceptor.Fault: Failed to route event via endpoint: DefaultOutboundEndpoint{endpointUri=http://example.com/test.asmx,

Message payload is of type: PostMethod
        at org.mule.transport.cxf.MuleInvoker.invoke(MuleInvoker.java:131)


Which I noticed is the same error, if I call "http://localhost:8888/services/anotherservice" from SOAPUI with the following ie. no soap body:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" ><soapenv:Header/></soapenv:Envelope>

As well I am not sure what the signature for invoke should be: If I declare returning a String I get a ClassCastException.
Using return of DepthXMLStreamReader gives me the same result as above.
Thanks

Using tcpmon I was able to determine which parts of the Soap body and SoapAction I was missing.
Thanks.
