SOAP Adapter with JAVA Mapping.

Hi,
I am trying a scenario,
file->SOAP Receiver->SOAP Sender->IDOC
in this I have used two interface mapping(and two mapping also).
In first mapping i used Java mapping. so the WSDL of this is of no use for me.
and in second mapping graphical mapping is performed.
but my scenario is not woking completely. only one messge in SXMB_MONI is displayed. but it should be two. I think there is some problem in java mapping.
in java mapping i have generated XML output, which will be input of SOAP sender.
plaese suggest me the format which should be generated by java mapping.

Sandeep,
Let me try to put your requiremen,
You have 2 scenariom
FILE to SOAP
SOAP to Idoc
When the file becomes availbale, the Scenario 1 triggers of Scenario 2. Scenario 2 provides you a WSDL and so scneario 1 's output should be of the format of this WSDL.
Hope I am on the correct track.
If yes, just import this WSDL into your IR, and see the format in which it expects the data by using it as a message type in some mapping ( dummy mapping ) and then in your Java Mapping create a output of the same format, with the same namespace etc.

Bhavesh

Should we avoid Graphical mapping and stick with Java mapping?

After developing mappings in XI for a month, I just don't see any good reasons to use Graphical mappings over Java mappings. Maybe some experienced users here can give me some valid reasons why we should choose Graphical mappings. Here is what I think:
Disadvantages of Graphical mappings:
1. No way to perform automated unit testings. This is probably the biggest reason I hate it. You can do some tests manually when you work in Integration Builder. But there is no way you can write some unit testing utilities to automate the task.
2. Complexity. Even for some simple requirements, your Graphical mappings can become complicated and hard to understand. A lot of times, I find myself staring at several dozens of graphical nodes and try to understand what it does.
3. Impossible to reuse. This is totally against the DRY (Don't repeat yourself) principle. For example, to generate messages for JDBC adapter, it is common to have two identical fields for primary keys: one in the access node and another in the key node. If you change the mapping logic in one, you have to remember to change the other.
Advantage with Java mappings:
1. Fully automated unit testing. You can create JUnit tests along with your Java mapping classes and use Maven or other build tools to perform automated unit testing.
2. Your choice of XML parsing and binding. With Java mapping, you can choose any open source framework for XML parsing and binding. For example, with XMLBeans, I can convert XML input message to a Java object, transform to another Java object and write to output message. And each Java object is generated from its corresponding XML schema.
3. Highly reusable. We can use fundamental object-oriented designs to create highly reusable mapping components.
4. Better version control. Since the mappings are just Java classes, we can use CVS or SVN to track code changes.
5. Better build tools. We can fully utilize build tools like Ant and Maven to automate the build, unit tests, or even generate documents and mapping web sites.
So do you guys agree? Maybe I am still new to XI or I am missing some important things. But at this point, I just don't see why I should use Graphical mappings. Is there anyone developing XI interfaces completely with Java mappings?
Thanks in advance for any comments!

Could you explain more why the graphical mapping has better performance? I thought the graphical mapping is compiled into a Java class in the runtime anyway.
> Yes thats there, but same goes with Java mapping too
> right (if you haven't mentioned it as constants)
I mainly think about inheritance. If I have to build 10 interfaces and they all have some common behavior, I can create a base interface class to encapsulate the common logic. But with graphical mapping, you have to duplicate them in each interface.
> Disadvantages of Java mapping:
> 1. Performance
Same as above. I just don't see why Java has worse performance. I actually think Java should have better performance. You can optimize the code anyway you want. In some cases, you have to use queue functions in graphical mapping but it's not necessary in Java.
> 2. All might not be well versed with Java Code(though

I am not asking everyone to abandon graphical mapping. I am just wondering which one is better when you have skills for both.

You can create functions in Java too. All you have to do is to remember the function name.

Problem with Java Mapping

Hello experts,
I developed a Java Mapping Programm for reading filename of a pdf file and giving filename to a rfc structure for calling a rfc module. Thus, I test it via testing interface method and implementing a main method in my mapping class, which works, but if I run it in the integration server I get the following exception:
MP: Exception caused of com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -7: com.sap.aii.af.rfc.afcommunication.RfcAFWException: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -7
That is the execute method of my class:
     public void execute(InputStream inputStream, OutputStream outputStream)
          throws StreamTransformationException {
          // TODO Auto-generated method stub
          try { //The following is for the FileName in the File Adapter
               DynamicConfiguration dynamicconfiguration =
                    (DynamicConfiguration) map.get("DynamicConfiguration");
               DynamicConfigurationKey key =
                    DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
                         "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File",
                         "FileName");
               String myFileName = dynamicconfiguration.get(key);
               MappingTrace trace = null;
               trace.addInfo(myFileName);
               DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
               DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
               TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
               Transformer transform = tf.newTransformer();
               Document docout = db.newDocument();
               Element root = docout.createElement("Z_SD_WEB_HP_INVOICE_STATUS");
               root.setAttribute(
                    "xmlns:ns1",
                    "urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions");
               docout.appendChild(root);
               Element docName = docout.createElement("IM_DOCNAME");
               root.appendChild(docName);
               Text srcxml = docout.createTextNode(myFileName);
               docName.appendChild(srcxml);
               DOMSource domS = new DOMSource(docout);
               transform.transform((domS), new StreamResult(outputStream));
          } catch (Throwable throwable) {
               throwable.printStackTrace();
If I test via main method and testing interface mapping the generated xml is like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><Z_SD_WEB_HP_INVOICE_STATUS xmlns:ns1="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions"><IM_DOCNAME>232132.pdf</IM_DOCNAME></Z_SD_WEB_HP_INVOICE_STATUS>
I do not understand why I get this error in real environment.

Hello experts,
I found the solution. I will also publish this solution, this is also a point which I sometimes missing here in this forum:
In creating the rfc-xml with java mapping, so a prefix should be add to the name of the rfc-structure e.g.
ns1:Z_RFC_CALL. If this prefix is missing, then you get this error:
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -7: com.sap.aii.af.rfc.afcommunication.RfcAFWException: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -7
To find this I create a grafical test mapping and I check the test rfc-xml with the java created xml.
Anyway thanks all for the published recommendations.
Kind regards,
Erkan

Help with java mapping

PI File adapter has a processing option u2018Empty-Message Handlingu2019 to ignore or Write Empty Files. In case there is no data created after mapping on target side then this option determines whether to write an empty file or not. But there is a catch to this option when it comes to using it with File Content Conversion which is described in SAP Note u2018821267u2019. It states following:
I configure the receiver channel with File content conversion mode and I set the 'Empty Message Handling' option to ignore. Input payload to the receiver channel is generated out of mapping and it does not have any record sets. However, this payload has a root element. Why does file receiver create empty output file with zero byte size in the target directory? Example of such a payload generated from mapping is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns1:test xmlns:ns1="http://abcd.com/ab"></ns1:test>
solution :
If the message payload is empty (i.e., zero bytes in size), then File adapter's empty message handling feature does NOT write files into the target directory. On the other hand, if the payload is a valid XML document (as shown in example) that is generated from mapping with just a root element in it, the File Adapter does not treat it as an empty message and accordingly it writes to the target directory. To achieve your objective of not writing files (that have just a single root element) into the target directory, following could be done:
Using a Java or ABAP Mapping in order to restrict the creation of node itself during mapping. (This cannot be achieved via Message Mapping)
Using standard adapter modules to do content conversion first and then write file.
can someone help with java mapping that can be used in this case?

The code for PI 7.0 should also work for PI 7.1 provided you use the right jar files for compilation, but vice-versa is not true.
Could you please let us know if this code was useful to you or not?

SOAP Adapter with Webservice Provider URL

This is what I did. Configured a Receiver SOAP adapter with SOAP 1.1 Message Protocol. Target URL is the WSDL URL Binding (SOAMANAGER) with authentication.
When I test the scenario the Message is through PI and Communication Channel - No errors
However strangely I do not see anything happening in ECC. Sometimes a log shows up in SOAMANGER "SOA Runtime Log/Trace Viewer" which has SOAP Runtime Error Information. This is very inconsistent again.
I have tested SOAP with XI 3.0 Message Protocol and the messages are through in ECC. No problems there.
Also Tried with directly using "SOAP Location URL" from within the Binding WSDL URL. This also results in DUMP in ECC.
Does SOAP adapter with SOAP 1.1 Message Protocol support Webservice Provider in ECC EHP5(SOAMANAGER Binding)? Is it built to support this kind of scenario? Or only WS adapter can invoke the Binding URL?
Is there any other URL that can be invoked with SOAP -SOAP1.1?
Using PI 7.1 Service Pack 5.
Pavan.
Edited by: pavan sodani on Aug 12, 2011 4:57 AM

Did you properly expose the RFC/Class in SOAMANAGER of the backend system? there is no endpoint created by default. You have to create and endpoint for a logical system (I guess). Then try calling the webservice from any 3rd party tool like Altova XML Spy. If that works then the ABAP webservice is working good and could be called from PI.

Can we enhance the Sender SOAP Adapter with our own modules?

Hi All,
Can we enhance the Sender SOAP Adapter with our own modules on the Module Tab Page in the Module Processor?
I believe the answer is no. However, whatever may be the answer, I would like to know that is there any specific reason for that.
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Yogi.

Hi,
I think, we are mentioning the URL of the adapter channel directly in the configuration. SO there is no place we can customize this flow..just a thought
Because in the file adapter etc, After Adapter Engine picks up the data and before it goes into integration engine module is processed..

Multimapping with java mapping

Hi,
i am trying to do multimapping with java mapping, but I am getting error "unexpected end-of-file" in SXMB_MONI.
for multimapping I have appended necessary code...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns0:Message1>
please suggest me solution.

I am creating 1:N multimapping and for that i have written 2 java programs, one consist of "execute" method and another "main" method.
and java code is:
public class Mapping_test implements StreamTransformation {
     private Map map;
     public void setParameter(Map param) {
          map = param;
     public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out) {
               try {       out.write( "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>".getBytes());
               out.write("<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0=\"http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge\">".getBytes());
                out.write("<ns0:Message1>".getBytes());
                out.write("<ns1:FIN_GBO_AR_POSTING xmlns:ns1=\"urn:sap-com:AR_POSTING\">".getBytes());
                      out.write("<MS_GBO_Header>".getBytes());
                      out.write(("<SourceSystem>" + "FIS0045_FIS" + "</SourceSystem>").getBytes());
                      out.write(("<TargetSystem>" + "FIS0101_SAP_ECC" + "</TargetSystem>").getBytes());
                      out.write(("<InterfaceID>" + "sap"   + "</InterfaceID>").getBytes());
                      out.write("</MS_GBO_Header>".getBytes());
               out.write("</ns1:FIN_GBO_AR_POSTING>".getBytes());
               out.write("<ns1:FIN_GBO_AR_POSTING xmlns:ns1=\"urn:sap-com:AR_POSTING\">".getBytes());
                      out.write("<MS_GBO_Header>".getBytes());
                      out.write(("<SourceSystem>" + "FIS0045_FIS" + "</SourceSystem>").getBytes());

                       out.write("</ns0:Messages>".getBytes());
catch(Exception e)
now I am getting error "unexpected end-of-file" mentioned above.
please suggest ..

Issue with java mapping in a multi-mapping scenario

Hi
    We have a 1:n multiple mapping scenario in XI and the source is R3 proxy and target side is files. So, creating multiple file from a single message from R3 .
R3 --> XI --> Multiple files
Structure of the output of the multi-mapping is
- <ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
- <ns0:Message1>
<Transaction>
</Transaction>
<Transaction>
</Transaction></ns0:Message1>
</ns0:Messages>
wherein each Transaction node represents a file.
Now, we need to introduce a constant /string like
<!DOCTYPE Transaction PUBLIC \"-//XXXXXX//DTD BatchReceiptAuthorization//EN\" \"http://dtd.XXXXXXX.com/dtds/ReceiptAuthorization.dtd\">
on each of the files at the very beginning - i.e within each transaction node , in the above structure, we need the above DTD string to be written. To do this, we added a java mapping as the second mapping after the message mapping that creates this string. Is this the right approach and would it produce what we are expecting ?
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.OutputStream;

               String StartingTag = XmlMsg.toString();
               indexOfFirst = StartingTag.indexOf("<MerchantID>") ;
               PayloadBody=new String(XmlMsg.substring(indexOfFirst));
               Result=NameSpacePrefix.concat(PayloadBody);
               output.write(Result.getBytes());
          /*     Thread.sleep(200000); */
          }catch(Exception e){
               myTrace.addWarning("Exception raised in the JavaMapping:modifyNamespace.java""\n The Exception Message: " e.getMessage());
               throw new RuntimeException(e.getMessage()) ;
        }     public void setParameter(Map param) {
          myTrace = (AbstractTrace) param
                    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.MAPPING_TRACE);

Hi XI Gurus
                   In my scenario, I sent the inputstream that is being passed to the Java execute method - to trace and I see that the whole of the xml file - as shown below - which is the output of message mapping ( from the first mapping step ) in sent to the execute method of the java mapping a single call
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns0:Message1>
<Transaction> </Transaction>
<Transaction> </Transaction>
</ns0:Message1>
<ns0:Messages>
So, I modified Java mapping program to look for multiple occurences of <Transaction> tag and prefix them with my constant DTD Literal - which is the primary reason , why I had to use Java mappings after the message mapping.
Now, I get an error is XI- SXMB_MONI
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="">
<SAP:Category>XIServer</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="MAPPING" />
<SAP:P1>unexpected symbol; expected '<', '</', entity refe</SAP:P1>
<SAP:P2>rence, character data, CDATA section, processing i</SAP:P2>
<SAP:P3>0</SAP:P3>
<SAP:P4>113</SAP:P4>
<SAP:AdditionalText />
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
<SAP:Stack>The exception occurred (program: CL_XMS_MAIN===================CP, include CL_XMS_MAIN===================CM00A, line: 609)</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
Should I create multiple outputs - as many as the numberof target split files ( of type outputstream ) from the execute method in the java program ?

Reading attachment in SOAP message with ABAP mapping

I am searching an ABAP code to read attachment in sender SOAP message..
I am using PI 7.3, I can read by java mapping but I get another error after reading the attachment.. So I try to abap mapping..
That's it..
Thanx ..

Hello Mark,
1. My Soap Sender Adapter, I checked the Keep Attachment option
2. I am getting the WSDL file from the SOAP Sender Agreement.. it is like http(s)://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=p:s:c? as you said.
I used the user-defined function, it works when <inc:Include href="cid:test.jpg" xmlns:inc="http://www.w3.org/2004/08/xop/include" /> is deleted in the message.
If the coming message includes <inc:Include href="cid:test.jpg" xmlns:inc="http://www.w3.org/2004/08/xop/include" />,
the <null> error occurs.
Thanx for your reply..

Hi!
First please confirm whether you are working on XI or PI 7.1 ?
because in XI you need to generate WSDL manaually via Tools>Define Web service-Giving Input..and in XI you need to test the SOAP scenario from external tool like Altova xml spy tool kit or else SOAP client tool.
In PI 7.1::
You can publish directly the web service in the SERVICE REGISTRY from sender agreement onwards.
once it is published you can check the status on your interface in service registry as CONFIGURED..Okay
Here you can test directly in service registry...
According to your error check ocne agan even though you gone through all the steps..
1. Check whether the SOAP service is active or not in SICF>SAP>bc>XI>Service-->SOAP.
2. sicne after generating wSDL u can get one url right that URL itself acts as a gateway to enter the source data into XI..
lets give to the source team to try with XI super uID adn PWD as authentification.
3. Also please STOP ur communication Channel and start once again.
4. Please check whether the WEB Service is configured correctly or not.

ERROR while using SOAP adapter with SMTP protocol

Hi,
The error i get is,
SOAP: error occured: java.io.IOException: server not responding OK to MAIL FROM; 454 5.7.3 Client does not have permission to submit mail to this server.
Please given your suggestions on the same.......
Also do provide more information on sending SOAP over SMTP.
Regards,
Abhy

Hi,
Thanks for your replies...
The thing is that we tried a receiver mail adapter scenario with SMTP prptocol which is working perfectly fine... Its the same SMTP sever we are using even in this case.
What could be the network problems that you mentioned, could you throw more light on the same.

Digitally Signing specific SOAP elements using Java Mapping

Hello SDNers,
Iu2019m having trouble creating java mappings to sign and verify digital signatures. Iu2019m new to Java so this is proving difficult. I understand the basic concepts of OO programming and utilizing classes/objects to build the program, but Iu2019m having trouble with the conceptual understanding of how I would like to get this done.
I have outbound and inbound messages. The outbound messages are originating from an ECC backend. The messages are processed through PI with a basic Message Mapping, then it is wrapped in a SOAP envelope with specific information using a XSL mapping and then I would like to use a Java Mapping to Digitally Sign specific portions of the entire message; specifically around an element in the SOAP header and sign the SOAP body. I also need to verify these sections for all inbound messages.
The simple pseudo code I have for the outbound messages is as follows:
<ol>
<li>1. read in xml (file input stream)</li>
<li>2. find the (specific information)</li>
<ol>
<li>a. assign that string to a variable</li>
<li>b. sign this variable with the security profile (keystore, private key)</li>
<li>c. e-write the variable into the main xml file</li>
</ol>
<li>3. find the soap body</li>
<ol>
<li>a. assign that string to a variable</li>
<li>b. sign this variable with the security profile (keystore, private key)</li>
<li>c. re-write the variable into the main xml file</li>
</ol>
<li>4. write the output file with both variables written (file output stream)</li>
</ol>
Currently Iu2019m using PI 7.1 so there is no more Visual Administrator tool.
Iu2019ve seen the examples from the last link, but I canu2019t seem to put it together when mixed with basic java mapping example. I have been searching the SDN forums for a while now, but hereu2019s my specific question: how do you create a java mapping to sign and verify specific elements of a SOAP message?
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Hi Jason, did you ever architect a solution for this?

Sender SOAP Adapter with HTTPs call

Hello,
Our scenarion is .. we will have a sender SOAP adater .. but it needs to be called using HTTPs(SSL).
Now considering we have the certificate generated and installed ..and that integration server is HTTPs enabled....What URL should the sending system call..?
For normal HTTP call the inbound address for inbound Adapter is: http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=party:service:channel
For the case of HTTPs just changing the htttp to https and the port number in in the calling system will suffice? Or is there other configurations that needs to be done??
Thanks and Regards,
Himadri

Hi Himadri,
Firstly as suggested by others you can call using https and give the https port in the soap adapter servler URL. Secondly you need to do the following configurations:
1) If its PI 7.0/3.0, deploy the latest version of the SAP Java cryptography toolkit.
2) Configure SAP PI as the server for HTTPS calls. In short
      Using the SSL Provider service:
                            a.      Select whether the J2EE Engine should:
                               ■      Request (but not require) that the user presents a client certificate for authentication.
                               ■      Require that client certificates are to be used for authentication.
                            b.      Import the CAu2019s root certificate into the Trusted Certification Authorities list. (Choose Add.) using the following For all the steps, link is mentioned below for XI 3.0, you can find similar ones for PI 7.0
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f1/2de3be0382df45a398d3f9fb86a36a/content.htm
3) If you want to enable client authentication then you would need to add the client certificate in the TrustedCA keystore view of the SAP J2EE engine.
4) In the SOAP Adapter sender channel, configure Inbound Security level as HTTPS or HTTPs with client authentication based on your scenario.

SOAP Adapter with Security Levels - HTTP & HTTPS

We have a successfully working interface scenario where SAP XI is hosting a web service and the partner systems calling it using SOAP Adapter URL http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:service:channel with Security Level HTTP on the SOAP Sender Communication channel.
Going forward, for other similar interfaces (SAP XI hosting Web Service and partner systems calling it), we would like to use HTTPS and/or certificates.
If we enable HTTPS on XI J2EE server as per the guide How to configure the [SAP J2EE Engine for using SSL - Notes - PDF|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/964f67ec-0701-0010-bd88-f995abf4e1fc]....
can partner systems still use the URL http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:service:channel or should they switch to https://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:service:channel?
can we continue to have the existing interface working using HTTP Security Level i.e. partners not having to send the certificate with each message?
If we use HTTPS security level, is it mandatory for the partner system need to send the certificate? Is it possible to have an HTTPS scenario w/o certificates?
What is the difference between Security Levels 'HTTPS Without Client Authentication' & 'HTTPS with Client Authentication'?
I appreciate your inputs on this.
thx in adv
praveen
PS: We are currently on SAP PI 7.0 SP17

Hi Praveen,
There is no need to change the interface and It is manditory for the partners to send certificates in order to validate each other. Use the https in url.
HTTPS With Client authentication:
The HTTPS client identifies itself with a certificate that is to be verified by the server. To validate the HTTPS clientu2019s certificate, the HTTPS server must have a corresponding CA certificate that validates this certificate. After validation of the clientu2019s certificate, the server maps the certificate to an actual system user executing the HTTP request.
