About soap interface

why we have to specify interface name while doing soap to rfc scinario

HI,
In SOAP to RFc interface your Web application is on Sender side and you will be defining the Webservice in XI in ID as per the SOAP sender communication channel.
then you need to identify the Outbiund Message Interface related to this defined Web service. That could be possible if you mentioned the Message interface in Sender SOAP Communication channle.
In Recevier you will not require it.

How can I get an Infoprovider list via the BI XML/A SOAP interface?

I have a followup question for this as well. Currently with xMII we are using the XML/A SOAP interface to query against remote enabled queries in BI. Is it possible through this interface to request a list of InfoProviders? I know that through MDXTEST in SAP GUI there is a list of providers there but is that available through the XMLA interface? The BAPI that I found that will do this is BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_CUBES with the CAT_NAME value set to $INFOCUBE. This name/description value set is what I am looking for.

Sorry about that. I had the link ready to paste but neglected to do so: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/getting-external-data-into-acrobat-x-javascript
The idea is that you can read in data from an external or attached file, but it will need to be a different format such as XML, tab-delimited text, or CSV, which can all be exported from a spreadsheet.

Oracle 9i Webservices app with SOAP interface?

I'm building an app that has the basic requirement of providing a SOAP interface. Originally this was planned to be a full blown J2EE solution, but I've begun to question the need for all that complexity.
Is there a way to provide the SOAP interface using some variation of OAS components? What is the minimum I need? Does java have to be part of the equation or can I simply connect the SOAP interface to some stored procs?
Although I have used Oracle database server to develope many applications over the years, I've never made use of OAS and am fairly confused by all the different components and exactly what they do. TIA

With Oracle JDeveloper you can publish PL/SQL Stored Procedures as Web Services.
You don't have to write your business logic in Java.

Error while testing File-PI-SOAP interface

Dear All,
We are working on File-PI-SOAP interface in which we have exposed a functional module from ECC server as receiver webservice. When we are testing the the interface we are getting following error :
Delivering the message to the application using connection SOAP_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: java.io.IOException: invalid content type for SOAP: TEXT/PLAIN; HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required.
In the receiver SOAP communication channel we have provided the required ECC login & proxy authentication credentials and also we are able to open the URL from PI server. Kindly let us know what more settings are required o make this interface running.
Regards,
NJ

Hi,
This is a synchronous interface and I want to send the output from webservice as a file to third party system.
We are just working on a demo interface, so we have created a webservice of a function module of ECC and also our interface is File-PI-SOAP.
We have also given the login credentials for proxy authentication but still we are getting the error the
SOAP: error occured: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: java.io.IOException: invalid content type for SOAP: TEXT/PLAIN; HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required
Kindly let us know, how can we resolve this error.

File-PI-SOAP Interface error

Dear All,
We are trying a interface in which we wanted to do Post Goods Issue in SAP from a file. We have exposed our Z-RFC which will do PGI as webservice and has imported its WSDL in PI.
Then, we have created a File-PI-SOAP interface. Now, when we are testing the interface we are getting success message in SXMB_MONI but in RWB, message for picking the file is success and when I am opening the message details its showing
" 500 Internal Server Error" ""Application error occurred during the request procession."
Details: "The WebApplicationException log ID is [001A64D0A1FC005F0000004600002E4800CEA8DA2043BF9A]."
Same error is showing for the receiver message but at payload I am able to see the correct values.
Kindly let us know, if any configurations are to be required to remove thsi error.
Regards,
NJ

Hi,
>500 Internal Server Error
does mean the server does not understand the request. I your case: You want to make use of a service which assumedly no exist. May be you have to release or activate it or to do something in SOAMANAGER. Please check your service first with SOAP UI.

Question about IDashedAttributeValues interface

Hi to everyone, I have a question about IDashedAttributeValues interface. If I would like to apply custom dashes kDashedAttributeValuesBoss to a page item. I would expect that my code will look like this: InterfacePtr<IDashedAttributeValues> pAttribute(::CreateObject(kDashedAttributeValuesBoss)); pAttribute->SetPhase( nPhase ); pAttribute->SetCornerAdjustment((IDashedAttributeValues::CornerAdjustment)nCornerAdjust ment); pAttribute->SetValue( 0, nDash0 ); But InDesign crashes at SetValue code. I could understand InDesign. It is out of range. But, how to specify the length of value array or to add value into array? Thanks in advance, Alexander Staroverov Developer Engineer Comosoft GmbH

Thank you to all, I have found the answer in SDK samples: void SnpGraphicHelper::AddDashedValues(const K2Vector<PMReal>& dashAndGapValues) { IDataBase* db = fItemList.GetDataBase(); InterfacePtr<IDocument> theDocument(db, db->GetRootUID(), UseDefaultIID()); InterfacePtr<IUIDData> uidData(::CreateObject2<IUIDData>(kDashedAttributeValuesBoss)); ASSERT(uidData != nil); uidData->Set(::GetUIDRef(theDocument)); InterfacePtr<IDashedAttributeValues> dashedAttributeValues(uidData, UseDefaultIID()); if (dashedAttributeValues != nil && dashAndGapValues.size() > 0) { for (int32 i = 0; i < dashAndGapValues.size(); i++) { dashedAttributeValues->SetValue(i, dashAndGapValues[i]); } this->AddAnAttribute(dashedAttributeValues); } }

How to create one soap interface with two soap action?

Hi,
I need to create one SOAP Interface with two or more webmethods (soap action), for example:
Interface: MI_Outb_User
Webmethods: createUser, searchUser, deleteUser.
Can anybody helpe me?

Hi Santos,
I assume you will use one action at a time and depending upon certain condition you want to invoke the webservice and the corresponding action. If this is yes, then please check michaels reply in this thread:
How can I handle serveral soap actions
or see stefans reply:
Re: Is SOAP Adapter Action field can contain 2 or more "SOAP Actions"
If this is not, then please ignore it.

SOAP interface determination

Hi
A more philosophical question this time.
I am somehow familiar with SOAP and AFAIK the invoked method name, is given by the first XML element inside Body tag? Right?
So. Assuming, I am right, how XI SOAP adapter determines the correct interface? In communication channel there is a box to fill with "default interface" information... it is strange to have such a configuration box as if client send a request to unknown SOAP method an exception should be thrown and not a "default interface" used.
Also it is interesting that for SOAP channel it is possible to use the "nosoap" option... it does not make no sense as the called interface name is defined inside the soap body.
So any comments to describe how SAP XI treats SOAP request for determining the right method...
Thanks for you opinions and links to related materials.
PS. Answers rewarded

Hi
Thanks for the response... I have some issues with terms so maybe You could help me to clear things up.
> > ...
> The method name is relevant for a web service. The XI
> only routes the SOAP message to a receiver, so it
> does not care about the method.
> > ...
> The interface is not the same as the method.
In SOAP/WSDL terms there are operations in collected into one port (or service if we consider the option that only one port is defined inside WSDL service element). Right?
and each operation has (again lets make a simplification that there are synchronous SOAP operations discussed) a request message and a response message.
In XI/IR there are interfaces that have message types. Each message type can be built using one data type. And in scenario configuration I am able to define connections (using communication channel templates) between interfaces.
So. If an XI Interface is not the same thing as SOAP operations then how is it possible to use mappings? Any hints?
Or XI restricts the WSDL definition so that inside a wsdl:service there can be only one wsdl:port definition and used binding (and portType) can contain declarations for only one operation?
Pleas help me out with this
I appreciate it a lot

More About Using Interfaces

Some of you may know that I've been experimenting more and more with interfaces.
In a thread from some weeks ago (authored by me), CrazyPenny went into elaborate detail about how they work under the hood. That plays into this and I thought that some of you would find it at least interesting and possibly useful to you.
The guy that leads the administration stuff where I work asked me a "if you have time, would you..." questions. I should learn by now to gracefully excuse myself "oh gosh, look at the time - gotta run!", but anyway, I didn't.
This has to do with expense reports from various employees - they want a consistent way of handling them. I certainly do agree with that, but he has an Excel spreadsheet that he's so very proud of. Uhh, it's ... well, I just think I can do better on my own
with VB and that's where I am with this.
He has it set up with seventeen different expense "types". Some are very similar, and some are quite different. Imagine for example how you'd set up an expense type for mileage reimbursement as opposed to how you'd set it up for out-of-pocket cost
for something like airfare and you get the idea here.
Per "entry" (in his, a row in his super duper Excel spreadsheet), there can only be one entry which can be any of those 17, but as stated, they're each done differently. This is where I am right now and I thought I'd share how I approached this:
I have a namespace that has all of those 17 "types" set up as classes. I have a simple interface named "IExpenseType" set up as follows:
Public Interface IExpenseType
ReadOnly Property Type As ExpenseType
End Interface
In the above, "ExpenseType" is a class that establishes the name, the category, and a five digit code they use internally for each.
Each of the 17 classes implement that interface and now I'm in a namespace that I've set up to enter the data and later will be set up for a report based on those individual entries.
For each entry, how do I handle that? Initially I thought about having seventeen instances of each of those classes and 16 would be null. What a dumb idea! I didn't like it but I couldn't figure out how else to do it, and that's where this interface has
resolved it. Each entry (that is, each instance of a class for the entries that I'm calling "ExpenseEntry") has the following fields:
Private _entryDate As DateTime
Private _entryType As ExpenseEntryType
Private _isBillable As Boolean = False
Private _jobOrWorkOrderNumber As String = "N/A"
Private _expenseEntry As ExpenseDetail.IExpenseType
The "entry" is the type IExpenseType. The method I'm using to add a new one has a parameter set up the same way and with that, I can now have just one single member which may be an instance of any of those seventeen classes.
You also see a backing field named "_entryType" which is an enumerator. When a new one is added, I'm testing what actual type (for lack of a better word here - what class it is of the 17 possibilities) so that later I'll be able to filter them
for reporting based on that enum value. Here's where my thoughts went back to what CrazyPenny added in that other thread:
How can I find out a type -- from a type.
If you recall, he explained that there are two distinctly different "types of type". The type that the parameter (and backing field) are based on the interface but to use my enum, I need to know the type (the "type" from the class instance
itself) so that I correctly set the enum.
Did you know that there are two types of "TypeOf"? I didn't - why didn't you tell me then! ;-)
I'll show by example:
If entry.GetType Is GetType(ExpenseDetail.Lodging) Then
_entryType = ExpenseEntryType.Lodging
ElseIf entry.GetType Is GetType(ExpenseDetail.Travel.Gas) Then
_entryType = ExpenseEntryType.Gas
ElseIf entry.GetType Is GetType(ExpenseDetail.Travel.Airfare) Then
_entryType = ExpenseEntryType.Airfare
End If
entry.GetType is from .Net and GetType (on its own) is a VB method that, as I understand, was around before .Net was so it's been retained.
As you can see above I'm using both of them. Maybe there's a better/easier way? I'm receptive to it if you have ideas, but this is working quite well and allows me to have just one member which may be any of the 17 actual classes behind it.
I hope that this might find use in some of your work. :)
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

I think that's pretty much the general approach as far as "item.GetType Is GetType(itemInterfaceType)" is concerned. I typically set up the comparisons using Select Case but that is a trivial difference.
As far as the enum goes, keep in mind that IEnumerable.TypeOf will let you get just the items of a particular type from a collection. If you're doing mostly LINQ collection manipulation anyway then you may not need the enumeration. Methods which
could use the enumeration information could be implemented as generic methods with an IExpenseType generic parameter constraint. This may actually be preferable to the enum in cases where you want to return a strongly typed result value from the method.

Question about soap url

hi all,
In SOAP sender communication channel, the default interface and namespace are defined there. But now I need to use one CC for two interfaces. I followed this how to guide
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d23cbe11-0d01-0010-5287-873a22024f79
I add some parameter "Interface=xxxx" to the url. But it dosen't work. When I send a message with another interface, the XI still uses the default interface.
What could be wrong? Any idea?
Thanks!
Regards,
Hui

Hi,
First of all refer this thread:
Re: Setting interface name dynamically from client for SOAP Adapter...
You need to:
1) in SOAP sender CC set the following flags:
- Use Encoded Headers
- Use Query String
2) prepare URL according to the following:
http://<host>:<j2ee-port>/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=<party>:<service>:<channel>&version=3.0&Interface=http%3A
%2F%2Fsap.com%2Ftest%5ETest
Then you will be able to use one SAOP sender communication channel to call two or more interfaces specified in the URL

Version mismatch error in SOAP interface

Hi
Scenario is SOAP to SOAP.
Sending request by SOAP UI to receiver webservice.
Interface was perfectly done & tested successfully.
Then we have done some changes in Receiver soap channel ...due to some error the changes were reverted
but now i am getting an error while testing as " version mismatch"
The provider webservice is working fine as we have tested it without PI.
The complete discription of error is as follows

Confused about SOAP

Hi all,
As far as I know, SOAP is initially designed to be an XML based
RPC protocol.
But Java API for XML Messaging (JAXM), which is actually a
messaging API (and not RPC), is also based on SOAP.
How do they fit to each other?
In a few words, what does actually SOAP define?
I am confused about that, can you help me?
Any idea will be appreciated.
Thank you

In a few words -- no. Try here:
