Java Stack for Web Service in R/3

Hello Friends,
I am developing a Web Service in R/3 server. Developed a RFC and converted it to Web Sevice.
My question is, is it necessarily required to have Java Stack in my server or will it be enough to have ABAP Stack. My server doesn't have java stack installed. shall i be able to run my Web service with ABAP stack?
Please help me and give me some suggesions.
Kumar.

Hi Kumar,
the above answer is simply incorrect.
You can certainly provide a web service from the ABAP stack without any need for a Java stack.
There are several blogs, and lots of forum posts, that discuss how to do this.
If you have indeed "Developed a RFC and converted it to Web Service" then you are away.
Use transaction SOAMANAGER ( or WSADMIN, WSCONFIG on earlier releases) to publish your webservice and away you go.
Cheers
Graham Robbo

What the mechanism of the Java Proxy for Web Services in WLS 8.1

Hi, all;
I try to find out how the java proxy of web service in weblogic server 8.1
works. Suppose I use the java Proxy of a WebSerice in a client application whatever
whithin or outside the application of the web service, does the proxy actually:
1. translate my java arguments objects in XML to create SOAP msg,
2. then send the msg across the network, and web service also response SOAP msg,
3. then proxy translate it into return value of the method call ?
If that is true , the Java Proxy seems very inefficient, right?
Can any body tell me how the proxy works ?
regards,
shannon

Hi Shannon,
The type of proxy I'm familiar with is at the http connection level and
associated with the networking properties in the JDK, See:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/net/properties.html
Your question may be related to JWS proxies, See:
http://edocs.bea.com/workshop/docs81/doc/en/workshop/guide/howdoi/howUseTheJavaProxyForAWebService.html
You may want to ask this question in the workshop newsgroup.
Hope this helps,

Sample java code for web service calling

Hello,
I need to call the web services for adding/updating records on Oracle On Demand Entities.
In particular i need a sample code in java language that explain how to append the sessionid
to the SOAP request when calling the web service.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Each time you perform any SOD Operation after Login, ensure have your JSessionId attached to your actual Web Service URL like in example below
wsLocation ="https://secure-XXXXX.crmondemand.com/Services/Integration";
jsessionId="8d928e8330d53c6f954b16194731bad78f5f111c2043.e34PaxyNchuLe34Rax4SchaKchz0n6jAmljGr5XDqQLvpAe";
String url=wsLocation + ";jsessionid=" + jSessionId;
Use this url for all your future SOD Operation till you logout.

Java API for Web Services

I have a .NET web service and want to make a JAVA API to communicate with the .NET webservice. Is there an easy API that will deal with the SOAP packaging and accomplish the communication for me?

I'm not sure If I understand you question, but you should be able to take the WSDL description of the .NET web service, point your favorite java development environment at it (either locally or via a URL) and say generate me a WS client for that.
Most environments include this as one of their tutorials.
There are also command line tools.

Error converting CFML arguments to Java classes for web service invocation.

Hello all.
I am working on writting a small application that will use a web service that is provided by our IVR (Angel.com). I am able to login, however when I attempt to do anything with complex objects, I get the error stated in the title.
It seems to be having a problem with the array, because when I remove it, or turn it into a simple string, i get errors about the function not being found. I am fairly new to web services, and especially dealing with complex data types, so any help would be much appreciated.
You can see my testing page at
http://webservices.fpitesters.com/AngelCalls.cfm
The WSDL I am using can be found at
http://www.angel.com/outbound/wsdl/OutboundCallService.wsdl
Here is sample code that does what I want it to do in Java / Apache Axis
http://www.socialtext.net/ivrwiki/index.cgi?java_sample_code
Here is a description of the function I am having problems with
http://www.socialtext.net/ivrwiki/index.cgi?placecall
And attached is my code.
     <cfset email = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
     <cfset pin = "xxxxxxxxxxxx">
     <cfinvoke webservice="http://www.angel.com/outbound/wsdl/OutboundCallService.wsdl" method="login" returnvariable="login">
          <cfinvokeargument name="email" value="#email#"/>
          <cfinvokeargument name="pin" value="#pin#"/>
     </cfinvoke>
     <cfdump var="#login#">
     <cfset Token = login.getToken()>
     <cfdump var="#token#">
     <cfset CallItem.maxWaitTime = 100>
     <cfset CallItem.phoneNumbers[1] = "7632344306">
     <cfset CallItem.siteNumber = 100041>
     <cfinvoke webservice="http://www.angel.com/outbound/wsdl/OutboundCallService.wsdl" method="placeCall" returnvariable="call">
          <cfinvokeargument name="Token" value="#Token#"/>
          <cfinvokeargument name="CallItem" value="#CallItem#"/>
     </cfinvoke>
     <cfdump var="#call#">

If you are not initializing phoneNumbers as an array before setting
<cfset CallItem.phoneNumbers[1] = "7632344306">
it will be passed as a struct with a key of 1. This could cause your argument conversion error.
So:
<cfset CallItem.maxWaitTime = 100>
<cfset CallItem.phoneNumbers[1] = "7632344306">
<cfset CallItem.siteNumber = 100041>
Will result in
struct
MAXWAITTIME
100
PHONENUMBERS
struct
1
7632344306
SITENUMBER
100041
<cfset CallItem = StructNew() > 
<cfset CallItem.maxWaitTime = 100 >
<cfset CallItem.phoneNumbers = arrayNew(1) /> 
<cfset CallItem.phoneNumbers[1] = "7632344306">
<cfset CallItem.siteNumber = 100041>
Will result in
struct
MAXWAITTIME
100
PHONENUMBERS
array
1
7632344306
SITENUMBER
100041

Starting out with Java client for Web Services

Hi,
I'm new to Web Services (but not Java in general). Just looking for some pointers to get me started in the right direction.
My pressing need is to develop a Java client for a set of Web Services described through a WSDL.
I've found the "Chapter 12: Building Web Services With JAX-RPC" section of the Web Services Tutorial. Could someone just confirm that this is the right tutorial for me to read for my puropse.
Also I was wondering about available tools for this purpose.
I was expecting that there would be a tool that could read a WSDL and generate client side stubs for it automatically. (Like how you can take a Remote interface and rmic it in RMI). Is there such a thing? Is it possible?
Preferably an open source (free) tool. I use the Netbeans IDE so if anyone knows of anything that integrates with that, all the better. I had a look at their site but couldn't see anything.
Thanks in advance for any tips anyone can provide.

Java API or Web Service for PDF generator for PostScript?

Hello Guys,
We acquired the evaluation version of the LiveCycle PDF generator for PostScript software and are in the process of acquiring information regarding the web-service / java api option but we can't seem to find extensive documentation or sample code.
The provided documentation gives some information on the different methods that can be used for web service but nothing extensive on how to use them properly in context. The documentation mentions java code samples on the developer ressource but I can't seem to get my hands on anything useful.
I looked around for quite some time on the developer ressource site but I must say it is not very easy to use. We are buried under a ton of useless information and the search functionality doesn't seem to yield interresting results.
Are we missing something obvious?
Regards
Jeff Michaud

Hi Jeff, I am in the exact same situation... I've been trying to find a document, just an overall user guide for the tool... nothing.
Even on the phone no one was able to answer me where that doc was. Does it exist?
Has anyone found a doc containing the information describing the APIs and on how to use the Web Services? Jeff, did you find something usefull yet?
Thanks!

Invalid Content Type Error for Web Service

Hi Experts,
We have a XI / PI Web Service, and have created an Adaptive Web Service Model for the same. For using this web service model, we have created a HTTP destination of type WSDL.
This configuration works great in our development and consolidation server.
While working with our production server, with all the settings same as consolidation server, the following error is generated for Web Service call. using the AWS model
java.io.IOException: Invalid content type while requesting http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/resources/<application_package>/guicall.wsdl. Expected Content-type: text/xml, received Content-type: content/unknown, used user to connect: null
The HTTP destination address is the one specified in bold above.
Also, in later part of the stack trace we are bale to see this error:
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.model.webservice.exception.WSModelRuntimeException: Exception on creation of service metadata for WS metadata destination
Please guide us on this issue.
Best Regards,
Alka.

Hi Alka,
How did you configure the Webservice Destinations in Visual Admin for a webservice explosed by XI system.
I mean what was the URL specified, did you specify XI SYSTEM userid password ???
How was the webservice published to inspection.wsil in XI system ??
Thanks,

Web Services Description Language (WSDL) 1.1 Specification
WSDL is an XML-based language that describes Web services. WSDL definesWeb services
as a set of endpoints operating on messages; these message containeither
message-style
or RPC-style information. The operations and messages are describedabstractly
in WSDL, and then bound to a concrete network protocol and messageformat
to define
an endpoint. Related concrete endpoints are combined into abstractendpoints (services).
WSDL is extensible to allow the description of endpoints and theirassociated
messages regardless of what message formats or network protocols areused
to communicate,
however, the only bindings described in the specification describehow to
use
WSDL in conjunction with SOAP 1.1, HTTP GET/POST, and MIME.
Note: WebLogic Server supports only SOAP 1.1 bindings.
The WSDL 1.1 Specification is available at http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl.

This isn't a straight FORM Post as in the http binding support in WSDL. It posts
a soap message.
It's apparent that Workshop supports form-post and form-get.
But I dont see how it is done with straight WebLogic webservices. Does WebLogic
server read the web-services.xml or the WSDL file? I dont see a way to put in
http-post binding in the former and in the latter it seems to be ignored.
Can someone clarify.
Thanks.

This might be a naive question, but according to the documentation,WL 7.0
does
not support http post/get bindings for web services. Thus, for meto
access a
web service, I need to write a "middle tier" of some sort (I used theautomatically
generated Java proxy code and JSP). All works fine, but it seems likeit
would
sure be nice to have HTML forms access web services without havingto
write a
middle tier.
NET does this and it is extremely useful - is there a reason that BEAchose not
to provide this feature? (e.g. is it architecturally unsound in anyway?
or is
there an easy way to simulate it?). Given some of the Web Workshoppositioning
re: ease of use and .NET comparison, this seems like an omission.
Any insights are greatly appreciated.
Enjoy,

PS - Here's the info from the documentation
Web Services Description Language (WSDL) 1.1 Specification
WSDL is an XML-based language that describes Web services. WSDL definesWeb services
as a set of endpoints operating on messages; these message containeither
message-style
or RPC-style information. The operations and messages are describedabstractly
in WSDL, and then bound to a concrete network protocol and messageformat
to define
an endpoint. Related concrete endpoints are combined into abstractendpoints (services).
WSDL is extensible to allow the description of endpoints and theirassociated
messages regardless of what message formats or network protocols areused
to communicate,
however, the only bindings described in the specification describehow to
use
WSDL in conjunction with SOAP 1.1, HTTP GET/POST, and MIME.
Note: WebLogic Server supports only SOAP 1.1 bindings.
The WSDL 1.1 Specification is available at http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl.

Image not displayed in pdf generated using Java API for Forms service

Hi,
I am creating a pdf document using Java API for Forms Service.
I am able to generate the pdf but the images are not visible in the generated pdf.
The image relative path is coming in the xml as defined below. The images are stored dynamically in the Livecycle repository each time a request is fired with unique name before the xml is generated.
<imageURI xfa:contentType="image/png" href="../Images/logo.png"></imageURI>
Not sure if I need to specify specify specific URI values that are required to render a form with image.
The same thing is working when I generate pdf document using Java API for Output Service.
As, I need to generate interactive form, I have to use Forms service to generate pdfs.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Below is the code snippet:
            //Create a FormsServiceClient object
            FormsServiceClient formsClient = new FormsServiceClient(myFactory);
            //Specify URI values that are required to render a form
            URLSpec uriValues = new URLSpec();
                              // Template location contains the whole rpository path for the form
            uriValues.setContentRootURI(templateLocation);
           // The base URL where form resources such as images and scripts are located. Whole Image path is passed in BaseUrl in the http format.
                  String baseLocation = repositoryPath.concat(serviceName).concat(imagesPath);
                              uriValues.setBaseURL(baseLocation);
            // Set run-time options using a PDFFormRenderSpec instance
            PDFFormRenderSpec pdfFormRenderSpec = new PDFFormRenderSpec();
            pdfFormRenderSpec.setCacheEnabled(new Boolean(true));
            pdfFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(com.adobe.livecycle.formsservice.client.AcrobatVersio n.Acrobat_8);
                              //Invoke the renderPDFForm method and write the
            //results to a client web browser
            String tempTemplateName =templateName;
            FormsResult formOut = formsClient.renderPDFForm(tempTemplateName,
                                          inXMDataTransformed,pdfFormRenderSpec,uriValues,null);
            //Create a Document object that stores form data
            Document outputDocument = formOut.getOutputContent();
            InputStream inputStream = outputDocument.getInputStream();

Building client proxies for web services with SOAP attachemtns

Hi all.
I'm currently building a series of web services that take SOAP attachments as
input, but I am unable to generate the java proxies for testing the services via
WebLogic Workshop 8.1. When I attempt to build the proxy, I get the following
error:
Warning: Failed to generate client proxy from WSDL definition for this service.
Suggestion: Please verify the <types> section of the WSDL.
Is there something I need to alter to get this to work, or does workshop not support
client proxies for web services with DataHandler parameters?
Thanks.
-Brian

Thanks for the help. This is my first web service with SOAP attachments, so it
may have been a long time till I realized that.

Thanks Brian,
The problem is that you are trying to use the "document" soap-style :-)
If you change this to "rpc", you'll should be able to successfully generate
the
client proxy jar. The soap-style property, is at the bottom of the "protocol"
property sheet section, for the JWS.

Sure, sorry about that. Attached is the wsdl for a sample web service
I created
just to test the proxy generation.

Hi Brian,
Would it be possible for you to post the WSDL, so we can see what might
be causing
the problem?

Implementing authentication for web services

Hi all,
I'm struggling trying to guess how to implement basic HTTP authentication as well as using certificates in order to apply HTTPS, for some web services we've created, running on the Oracle Application Server 10.1.12. The web services were implemented using JDeveloper 9.0.4. Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks in advanced and regards,
Luis

Hi,
But, I need to develop the web services logon method using WSDL which generated the LogonBindingImpl.java, instead of web services using EJB bean.
Besides, the Web Service logon method (LogonBindingImpl.java) need to accept the input user name and password to check with the user name and password that stored in database table through the EJB bean. If checking successful, client program is allowed to invoke other WebServices method, else login failed exception need to be thrown when client calling other web services methods.
Appreciate the advice here on how to achieve that. Thanks.
