Hello guys,
I am trying to develop a portlet that consumes a web-service.
By consuming I mean that the methods exposed by the web service needs to be called using SOAP.
The requirement is to read an uploaded file and then call the web service using the values (read from the file).
I have been able to read the uploaded file but it is the calling of the web service from within the portlet where I am facing issues.
When I call the web service from stand alone client I get the proper SOAP response but when I use the same code within my portlet I get no response NOT EVEN exception.
I have generated the Java client classes for web service using Eclipse which I am attaching:
The problem is evident when the code is unable to call the constructor for the service locator i.e. ServiceHandlerServiceLocator (name of generated service locator in my case).
I tried to trace this out using the logger statements. No exceptions could be seen when the code is being called from portlet class.
Below is the stand alone client code which is WORKING :
package com.retailsoftware.webservices;
public class WebServiceTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String userName = "MYWEBSERVICE";
String password = "HELLO123";
String inputXml = "<![CDATA[<document xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=\"file:///C:/RETAIL/quoteschema.xsd\"><request><quote owner=\"SAMEER\" request_no=\"123\"/></request></document>]]>";
try {
System.out.println(new ServiceHandlerProxy().postQuote(userName, password, inputXml));
} catch (RemoteException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
This gives proper SOAP response, but when a similar web service call is made from portlet , it lands no where
Below is the portlet class code which is NOT WORKING :
package uk.co.myCompany.portal.myProject.bean;
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.ViewScoped;
import org.portletfaces.bridge.GenericFacesPortlet;
import org.portletfaces.logging.Logger;
import org.portletfaces.logging.LoggerFactory;
@ManagedBean(name="myProject")
@ViewScoped
public class FileEntryCallbackBean extends GenericFacesPortlet implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory
.getLogger(FileEntryCallbackBean.class);
public void executeListener(FileEntryEvent event)
{
String userName = "MYWEBSERVICE";
String password = "HELLO123";
String inputXml = "<![CDATA[<document xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=\"file:///C:/RETAIL/quoteschema.xsd\"><request><quote owner=\"SAMEER\" request_no=\"123\"/></request></document>]]>";
try {
logger.info("HERE : 1");
logger.info(new ServiceHandlerProxy());
logger.info("HERE : 2");
logger.info(new ServiceHandlerProxy().postQuote(userName, password, inputXml));
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
