    SOAP Binding doesn't seem to handle RPC-style web services correctly

      Hello,

       

      This is a follow-up feedback from the previous discussion at https://community.jboss.org/thread/222932 . I'm exploring SOAPClient-equivalent capabilities in SwitchYard and now trying to invoke a RPC-style web service as a reference from a SCA component. The RPC-style web service I'm trying to invoke looks like this:

       

      @WebService(name = "HelloWorld", targetNamespace = "http://webservice_consumer1/helloworld")
@SOAPBinding(style = SOAPBinding.Style.RPC)
public class HelloWorldWS {
    ...

       

      However, the invocation fails with the following error in SY 0.8:

       

      23:17:58,289 ERROR [org.slf4j.Logger] Failed delivery for (MessageId: ID-reunion-44667-1365689873791-2-4 on ExchangeId: ID-reunion-44667-1365689873791-2-5). Exhausted after delivery attempt: 1 caught: org.switchyard.HandlerException: Unexpected exception handling SOAP Message

      I believe SY aims to support RPC-style web services with SOAP binding ( https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SWITCHYARD-627 ), but apparently there is a bug in SOAP binding:

      https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SWITCHYARD-1348

      https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SWITCHYARD-1392

       

      I'm attaching my entire project. Please let me know what do you think. Any advices would be much appreciated.

       

      Best regards,
