    Document Literal style

    zeeshan.javeed

      I am wondering how i can use my own mapping for document literal type.
      I am comparatively new to JbossWs and I would love to know how we can enforce to use Document Literal style in order to generate WSDL file. WSDL file is automatically generated by the system and deployed. Where we can direct wstool to use a particular mapping file ?

      Any guidance ?

          Somewhere i've heard that you can use your own wsdl file (insted of generated) - maybe it helps?

            Hi,
            Thx for your reply. Acutally, my problem is bit more wierd. I have to modify the current webservices developed using old version of Jbossws. Now I have complied the server side with new jbossws 2.0.2 and new wsdl file is generated and deployed. The new client created against this wsdl file using wsconsume works very fine but the old client, created with pervious version are not working.

            After my investigation, I am of the view that problme is due to mapping and document literal style. Earlier code generated a mapping.xml file and now this time no mapping.xml file is generated. So that is the main reason I asked how we can use the Document Literal in a right way.

            Secondly, my wsdl file is always generated and deployed in Jboss , default/data folder. I wanted to deploy it some other location and with different port , for example 8080 instead of 80, so that i can debug the out put using TCP MON. Can Any body, help me how to
            1) use Document Literal ( so that it generates mapping.xml file )
            2) change locatoin and port of wsdl file.

            Thanks & Regards,
            Zeeshan

              1) AFAIK mapping.xml file is not generated for JAX-WS based clients
              2) You can use javax.jws.Webservice.wsdlLocation to specify your custom WSDL location

                THx for the prompt reply.

                How we can forec the wsdl fiel to be generated using Doc /Literal.
                Do we only need to put @WebMethod before a method ?

                @WebMethod
                publicSession startSession(Session session)
                {
                log.debug("Start session with version: " + session.getVersion());
                handleInfo("startSession", session);
                return getVersion(session).startSession(session);
                }


                and can you eloborate more where we can write the code for the location of wsdl file and how to specify the port ?

                Thanks,
                Zeeshan

                      This is a quite common issue for users that have been using old JBossWS versions. If you need to expose a wsdl contract that is exactly the same of your previous one, you should try with the top-down approach. See this for further information: http://jbws.dyndns.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=JBossWS_JAX-WS_Tools#Top-Down_.28Using_wsconsume.29
                      This way your service clients should work without changes.

                      After my investigation, I am of the view that problme is due to mapping and document literal style. Earlier code generated a mapping.xml file and now this time no mapping.xml file is generated. So that is the main reason I asked how we can use the Document Literal in a right way.

                      As previously said, the jaxrpc-mapping.xml is not related to the wsdl style you use (Document/literal, rpc/literal, etc.). That mapping file is simply not generated by our jax-ws stack.

                      Secondly, my wsdl file is always generated and deployed in Jboss , default/data folder. I wanted to deploy it some other location and with different port , for example 8080 instead of 80, so that i can debug the out put using TCP MON. Can Any body, help me how to

                      2) change locatoin and port of wsdl file.


                      Is your concern about the wsdl address or the endpoint address?
                      Please take a look at the FAQ to understand how the endpoint address relates to the context configuration (i.e. how you can change that address): http://jbws.dyndns.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=FAQ#How_do_I_know_what_endpoint_address_is_being_used.3F
                      The port used for every endpoints depends on the jboss-web configuration of your application server.
                      You might also be interested in reading how you can configure JBossWS to rewrite the endpoint addresses in the wsdl files (once you download the wsdl, you get the endpoint address from it's contents... and that automatically generated address can be rewritten changing the host and port):
                      http://jbws.dyndns.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=FAQ#How_does_rewriting_of_the_soap_address_in_WSDL_work.3F

                      Finally, it seems to me there has been a little misunderstanding with Richard on what you need to do. The wsdlLocation attribute of @WebService should be used to point the stack to the wsdl location during the deployment phase. As a matter of fact jbossws needs to read the wsdl (if you decide to expose your own one instead of letting it generate it for you) and wsdlLocation specifies the relative URL to the wsdl.
                      Please give us some further information to better understand your usecase.

                        Hi,

                        Thanks a lot for valuable information. I was away and will contine to test the client under the guidance provided.

                        Thanks indeed.

                          Hi,

                          I have generated the code using WSCONSUME and after modifying existing code, when I try to run the old client I got Null Pointer Exception. I generated the new client using the newly generated wsdl file and the new client works fine.
                          I debuged more and here is the request send by old client.

                            in the implementation class , it colored the whole page with Red lines.
                            The pop error sys:
                            'Unable to create superinterface QWipe; of'
