What's the difference between 'official' Axis 1.1 and Jboss

[zeroman]

I'm trying to use Jboss-4.0.1 Axis 1.1 for accessing sforce.com WS. They are support Axis 1.1 but I can't compile their example using Jboss Axis version.
I'm getting compile error for the code. Error is in:

binding.setHeader(new SforceServiceLocator().getServiceName().getNamespaceURI(), "SessionHeader", sh);

it says there is no such method signature like that.

'sh' is type of
package com.sforce.soap.enterprise;
public class _SessionHeader implements java.io.Serializable {...}

If I trying to work this code around I'm getting 'Session Id is invalid' error. I can invoke 'login command' but then I can't supply gotten SessionId for the next WS calls.

Sforce.com folks say they don't know the difference between official Axis 1.1 and Jboss Axis 1.1 fork.

Does somebody encounter this problem. Sorry I supplied not much information about the problem.

Any help are welcome.
Thanks.

Thanks.

Just want add a little. When I use Axis 1.2RC2 standalone version the code compiles and runs properly w/o any problems. Jbooss version 4.0.1, JDK 1.4.2. Axis libs are taken from the:
\jboss-4.0.1\server\default\deploy\jboss-ws4ee.sar\

What do you suggest in this case?

Can I attach or email this piece of code somewhere?

JBossWS is about portable J2EE compliant web services, which by definitition should not have a dependency on a particular SOAP stack.

If sforce.com offers an example that uses standard J2EE WS clients, then this is the one you want to use.

The Axis example is irrelevant.

The Axis example is irrelevant.

It is irrelevant for J2EE-1.4 compliant web services, it is good to have if you plan to use an Axis client, which JBossWS is not.

Thanks Thomas.

The main goal is to use JbossWS WITH sforce.com ws and other already running web-services from other 'vendors'. I'd like to do it in the simple manner but I see here is run-time error from the sforce.com service as it doesn't see 'session ID' I've set up to the SAOP header.
I don't see a reason for that now. Also I see a lot of questions in the JbossWS forum it's not a very good sign.

I'll try to ask for the 'J2EE-1.4 compliant web services' example.

Thank you.

Looking at the post:
"axis1.2 with tomcat 4 deployed in jboss4.01"
http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=61200
I'd like to ask one more thing.

Is it possible to 'mix' usage of Jboss.NET and JbossWS libs by an accident?
I mean following...
I'm using several libraries for stub generation (WSDL2Java) and for testing ws access from the client console application. I'm using libs in class path:

jboss-4.0.1\server\default\deploy\jboss-ws4ee.sar\
axis-ws4ee.jar
commons-discovery.jar
commons-logging.jar
jboss-ws4ee.jar
- jboss-ws4ee.war - can be ommitted
wsdl4j.jar

I saw you were talking about: \lib\jboss-jaxrpc.jar, \lib\jboss-saaj.jar
bu I don't need them for my test class.

But I found I need one more library jboss-net-client.jar as test console client code fails w/o class org.jboss.net.jmx.adaptor.attributeSerFactory.
Is it right or am I doing something wrong? Does it mean I've mixed Jboss.NET and JbossWS?

Hi Thomas.

I found something strange in the Jboss code. Can you explain me what happens there? What's the main difference between library versions? Is it possible to 'patch' it?

I'm using JbossWS libs from the
\jboss-4.0.1\server\default\deploy\jboss-ws4ee.sar\
I'm not sure if I use correct libraries... Correct me if I'm wrong.

As I told I was exploring sforce.com Axis examples. Their example works with Axis 1.2rc2 but doesn't work with JbossWS.
They have a code which sets SessionID into the SAOP header for the subsequent WS calls. Session Id is gotten from the first 'login' command.

It is described as

public class SoapBindingStub
extends org.apache.axis.client.Stub
implements com.sforce.soap.enterprise.Soap
........

com.sforce.soap.enterprise.SoapBindingStub binding;
....

They are using the 'simple java bean Handler class for setting Session ID

public class _SessionHeader implements java.io.Serializable {
 private java.lang.String sessionId;
 ....
}

com.sforce.soap.enterprise._SessionHeader sh = new _SessionHeader();
....
binding.setHeader(new SforceServiceLocator().getServiceName().getNamespaceURI(), "SessionHeader", sh);

Class org.apache.axis.client.Stub
from the
\jboss-src-4.0.1\jaxrpc\src\main\org\apache\axis\client\Stub.java
doesn't have method with such signature.

org.apache.axis.client.Stub.setHeader(String, String, Object);

althought that signature is present in the Axis 1.2RC2

So I use changed code assuming it will work

binding.setHeader(new SforceServiceLocator().getServiceName().getNamespaceURI(), "SessionHeader", sh.getSessionId());

but it doesn't work.

When I try to get this Header's value

Object sessionHeaderObject = s._getProperty("SessionHeader");

sessionHeaderObject is NULL.


----------------------

I was trying to get all headers using different libaries (JbossWS 4.0.1, Axis 1.2RC2. I used CODE like that:

org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeaderElement{} array = binding.getHeaders();
 for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
 SOAPHeaderElementImpl soapHeaderElement = array{i};
 javax.xml.soap.SOAPHeaderElement soapHeaderElement = array{i};
 System.out.println("SAOP header element = " + soapHeaderElement.toString());
 System.out.println("SAOP header getNamespaceURI = " + soapHeaderElement.getNamespaceURI());
 System.out.println("SAOP header getPrefix = " + soapHeaderElement.getPrefix());
 System.out.println("SAOP header element = " + soapHeaderElement.toString());
 }

I was getting different RESULTS using :
class type of javax.xml.soap.SOAPHeaderElement from Axis 1.2RC2

/b]CODE for class type of org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeaderElement from Axis 1.2RC2

org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeaderElement soapHeaderElement = array{i};
System.out.println("SAOP header element = " + soapHeaderElement.toString());

CODE using JbossWS is

org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeaderElementImpl{} array = binding.getHeaders();
 for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
 org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeaderElementImpl soapHeaderElement = array{i}
 System.out.println("SAOP header element = " + soapHeaderElement.toString());
 System.out.println("SAOP header getAsString = " + soapHeaderElement.getAsString());

 System.out.println("SAOP header getPrefix = " + soapHeaderElement.getPrefix());
 System.out.println("SAOP header element = " + soapHeaderElement.toString());
 }

The RESULT using JBossWS class type of
org.apache.axis.message.SOAPHeaderElementImpl
