How to use generated code from "Import Web Services" with Cairngorm Framework

I recently downloaded Flex Builder 3 beta 2 and tried out the
wizard that lets you import web services. The code that is
auto-generated makes if fairly straight forward to consume web
services using the object types defined in the WSDL. No longer does
the developer need to decode the XML payload! The only problem I am
having is how does you integrate the auto- generated code with the
Cairngorm framework? This seems like a huge question for anyone who
might want to leverage Cairngorm and the auto-generated proxy code
in the same project (like me).
Here are the problems that I see so far.
1) How do you configure the generated service class to work
with the Cairngorm service locator? The service constructor only
accepts a “LCDS destination string” which implies that
you must use Lifecycle data services. Unfortunately, the project I
am trying to retrofit currently uses a WebService and does not use
data services. All I really need to do is change the endpoint URL
(ie from local to a development server). This issue is noted in the
bug https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-8456. What I think is
needed is a way to set the endpointURI in the Services.mxml file.
2) Even if I come up with a hack around #1, I do not receive
a callback to my IResponder even though I register it immediately
after the method call. I can register and listener function within
my business delegate and receive the callback, but my Command
object, which implements IResponder, does not receive the call back
even though it is registered. From what I read in the ASDocs it
should but it doesn’t for me!
These are the issues I have observed in 3 hours of messing
with this. I hope this makes sense. I would love to integrate
auto-generated web service proxies into Cairngorm but I don’t
see a straight forward way without re-architecting Cairngorm. Has
any one else run across this issue? If so, do you have any insights
on how to proceed? Any help is appreciated.

Since I posted this question, I have abandoned the notion of
auto-generated web services and embraced the good old FDS concept
where the RemoteObject meta-tag does all the conversion work for
me. We are now using the Granite DS package and it is working well
for us. I would love to consume web services, but it just isn't
worth the hassle when all you have to do with Granite (and FDS) is
cast your return objects to the proper object type.
BTW, since this posting, I have investigated competing Flex
app frameworks. After my research, I checked out the PureMVC
framework. Wow!! Cairngorm always left me with an uneasy feeling
and I guess I am not alone. Apparently, Cliff Hall felt the same
way. That is why he started the project. I like his approach alot
more than Cairngorm especially since it includes notifications
which allow me to broadcast my own app level events independent
from the AS Event framework. Check out PureMVC. For what it is
worth, it has my humble endorsement. Cliff was even gracious enough
to acknowledge the other Adobe Consulting guys for their work. Good
for you Cliff, I respect that. Check out a better way at

How to access HTTP Header from within Web service?

Hello,
Is there a way to access HTTP header variables like CONTENT_TYPE, CONTENT_LENGTH from within Web Logic web service.
I was able to get the HTTP header variable from within Apache AXIS services by calling context.getProperty(HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLETREQUEST
How can i do this from weblogic web service.
I need this to verify the client SSL_CLIENT_DN
In access I can get the header as follows.
HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest) context
.getProperty(HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLETREQUEST);
clientID = req.getHeader("SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_Email");

Code generated from imported web service model does not compile

I have created a model in Web Dynpro by importing a web service model using a valid WSDL, but the generated code won't compile because of type mismatches.
The problem is that methods sometimes try to pass plain objects to methods whose parameter is an array of that object, and a List to methods whose parameter is a plain object.
[Examples from SAP Netweaver tasks below]
Thanks,
Alastair
snip
The method setSessionData(EntInstType) in the type AssessRequestData is not applicable for the arguments (EntInstType[])
ComplexType_AssessRequestData.java
Type mismatch: cannot convert from EntInstType to EntInstType[]
ComplexType_AssessRequestData.java
The method setResult(List) in the type Response_JrbrsRefGeneric_listGoals is not applicable for the arguments (EntType)

I'm getting the same error.
Type mismatch: cannot convert from short[][] to short[]
ComplexType_Carton.java

The method setNumeroscarton(short[][]) in the type Carton is
not applicable for the arguments (short[])

Steps to recreate the problem:
1. Create and Expose webservice method with a parameter whose type has a short[][] (or bidimensional array of anything) field (property).
2. Try to import the web service in web dynpro... <b>kaputt</b> it won't compile.

How to get the cookie from a web service using Axis

I used the AXIS wizard to consume a WSDL and create a bunch of boiler plate code. It works great in that I can talk to the web service and submit requests.
The problem is that I need to retrieve the cookie from the login request and use it when making subsequent requests. I have been unable to find the cookie and would appreciate a point in the right direction.
Currently I'm trying something like this
String cookie = (String)((Stub)service)._getCall().getMessageContext().getProperty(HTTPConstants.HEADER_COOKIE);
Thanks in advance.

Answered on my own:
Just have to use
x_result = http_client->response->get_data( ).
instead of
x_result = http_client->response->to_xstring( ).
Just don't knwo why the filesize is wrong also - but I can work with this image!

How to add "Prepare Data" from a web service to the form

Hello,
Can any one please advise on how to add the "Prepare Data" process from the existing web service and have the form to pre-populate the data from this "Prepare Data" process instead of using schema xsd. I heard that this is an alternative or may be a better way to pre-populate data in ES2/ES3 to avoiding creating a data source in Form Designer. I try to find a sample on Adobe site but could not find one, most of them are using schema.
Any guidance or URL to the sample would be helpful.

How to access application state from stateless web service?

I have a beginner J2EE question. After reading through J2EE tutorial, I still don't know how to create an application that would run on J2EE server, and which would have a web service interface to other world, and which would have several threads running, which would connect to other enterprise applications via TCP? Because if I understand it correctly, web service requires a stateless session bean, which means that it can't access any stateleful session bean (except always create one and remove it instantly). So there seems to be no way to store application state and have running threads.
I'm asking this because .NET seems to have a very simple Application dictionary, which can save all application objects, including threads, and it is very easy to access this Application state from a stateless web service. Isn't there any similar functionality in J2EE? And if not, how it should be done in Java world then?
I guess that the Connector architecture could be the solution, but it is not documented in the tutorial.

There's nothing in the J2EE spec that says that you have to use Web Services. Web Services by definition are stateless.
If your requirements are that you have to use a session bean along with a Web Service, then the architecture needs to be rethought, because it doesn't seem to me that Web Services are what you want.
That said, you can use a hybrid. You can expose some of the functionality of your application as Web Services while the remaining is implemented in a classic J2EE type framework that is stateful.
I would also think that you could store your application state via entity beans. You could save and load them when the web service is accessed. An entity bean doesn't require a database... just some form of persistence (could be an XML file for instance).
You need to decide which components of J2EE make sense when and where.

How to forward security credentials from one web service to another

Here is what I am trying to do... I have a standalone client that invokes a message-level secured web service (WEBSERVICE A) on a Weblogic 9.1 server (SERVER A) with a username and a password, and this web service (WEBSERVICE A) uses the same username and password from the client, and invokes another message-level secured web service (WEBSERVICE B) deployed on a different WebLogic 9.1 server (SERVER B).
Does WebLogic 9.X automatically asserts the same client credentials when the WEBSERVICE A invokes WEBSERVICE B on a different server? If it doesn't, what is the best way to do that? Thanks.

You can save the site (spweb) as a template, and then use the template to create a new site in another web application.
When you save the site, it's saved to the solutions gallery. You can download the saved site from the solutions gallery, and then use it to create the new site collection.
If the site is a publishing site, you'll need to de-activate the publishing features first.
You can save the site as a template via the sites settings page, or via SharePoint designer.

How to call BPEL process from Java Web Service?

Any example/sample/tutorial on this?
TIA.

I've done something similar a few times, specifically using a standalone Java application to invoke a BPEL process (so that it can be called from a cron job, for instance).
The thing to remember is that a BPEL process presents itself to the outside world as a Web service. If your Java Web service can communicate with other Web services (by sending a message of the appropriate format to the URL of the other Web service), then exactly the same technique can be used to call the BPEL process. You know what the input message has to look like, and you know where the process is located on your network, so set up the Java Web service to send the message to that address.

Best Practice for WSDL Generate Proxy Class for Web Service with Two Versions

Dear All
Thank you in advance for you help.
I would like to generate proxy classes for same function but with two versions.
Old version web service (v23.2) is used for stable modules in a project which is not going to modify.
However, enhancement is added in new version web service (v24) and is going to use in any future modules.
For example,
wsdl.exe -o="TestProxy.cs" -l:CS -n:Test -sharetypes https://community.workday.com/custom/developer/API/Notification/v23.2/Notification.wsdl https://community.workday.com/custom/developer/API/Notification/v24.0/Notification.wsdl
It generates similar classes with an '1' added at the end of the class name.
ublic partial class Event_TargetObjectType {
private Event_TargetObjectIDType[] idField;
public partial class Event_TargetObjectType1 {
private Event_TargetObjectIDType1[] idField; ...}
Since the function inside some class is the same, is it possible for WSDL.exe to generate proxy classes automatically that if the class is the same, then generate one class only (sameFunction()) but if it detects the class is different, then add '1'
to the end of class name (differentFunction() and differentFunction1())
i.e.
public class sameFunction()
public class differentFunction()
private int a;}
public class differentFunction1()
{ private int b;
Best Regards
mintssoul

Hi mintssoul,
As per this case, I have shared corresponding details below :
1.As far as I know, WCF doesn’t support method overloading directly
2.Because WSDL doesn’t support method overloading (not OOPs).
3.WCF generates WSDL which specifies the location of the service and the operation or methods the service exposes.
4.WCF use Document/Literal WSDL Style : Microsoft proposed this standard where the soap body element will contain the web method name.
5.By default all the WCF services conform to the document literal standard where the soap body should include the method name.
6.but you can differ the method in the same manually by using Name attribute like below
For example:
    [OperationContract(Name="Integers")]
    int Display(int a,int b)
    [OperationContract(Name="Doubles")]
double Display(double a,double b)
7. Or I suggest you that can use svcutil to map multiple namespaces for generating wcf service proxies .
    for more information about this, refer here :
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1103686/use-svcutil-to-map-multiple-namespaces-for-generating-wcf-service-proxies

Problems invoking a method from a web service

I can't figure out data binding from a web service.

Hi,
I've been trying to figure out how to connect a TreeTable control with data from a non-SAP web server. Here's what I have so far;
    I have a sample program that uses json in a variable called oData.
    I have a TreeTable control named oTable.
    I create a model;
        var oModel = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel();
    I feed the oData variable into it;
        oModel.setData(oData);
    Finally, I feed the oModel to the oTable;
        oTable.setModel(oModel);
That all makes sense. What I want to do is get the data from a web service. The only examples I've been able to find show how to configure an SAP data service and then connect to that. They don't give any details of the format that the SAP data service is sending. I don't have access to an SAP system so I can't set one up to reverse-engineer the data. I'm going to be writting my own oData service for this so I need a couple of things;
    1. An example of json or xml data as it's sent from a web server.
    2. An example of how you pull that data from the web service to an SAP ui model.
I could really use some help. I haven't been able to find any examples that make sense to me.

Hi Joe
Here is an small example. Maybe it is useful to you.
In this example, I bind the tree to /root and you can see that we have 0: 1: elements under each element recursively.
Thanks
