Soap w/Attachment

Hello All,
Is there any size limit for attachment in BPEL PM? I use 10.1.3 ver. I have a requirement of sending a word doc of size 1MB
Thanks,
Arun

Hi John,
I have attached a zip containing a little example that might help you. It shows
how to use a server-side handler to invoke a different operation (in the same
web service) than the one the caller invoked. The "backend" webservice implementation
(a SLSB) exposes two operations; sayHello(int,String) and sayHelloWithExtraData(int,String,String).
The caller calls sayHello, but the server-side handler intercepts the call and
invokes sayHelloWithExtraData instead! The results of the sayHelloWithExtraData
operation are what's actually returned to the caller of the sayHello operation.

Hi Don.
Thanks for getting back to me, but I'm not sure I understand your answer.
How I would I go about creating a local variable on the thread in question?
As far as I know, the thread which invokes both the back-end component
and the
handler is transparent to the developer, so how would I code it in?
Or are you saying access the handler from the back-end via Thread.currentThread()?
In which case, assuming it's public, how would I know the instance name?
Would you clarify with a bit of code?
Thanks.

Soap with Attachment

Hello,
I need to develop a WebDynpro application with NetWeaver 2.0 for SAP EP6 that call a remote web service in order to send an attached file with SWA (Soap With Attachment) methodology. The kind of file to attach is XML.
Can someone give me refers or indications to implement it?
Thanks and best regards,
Matteo.

Send SOAP DIME Attachment (please comment on my sample code)

Hi All,
I had hard time trying to find a send SOAP DIME attachment
code for the web service. And here it is, I wrote one,
but I use to easy way to deploy the service.
I just simply change the extension .java to .jws,
so, can you all tell me whether it will be a problem or not ?
And please review my code below, I debugged and no error,
but I am not sure if it is working right.
Basiclly 2 operations:
public String generateID(int artID)
public File detachFile(String filename)
Please comment on this code, I am trying to make it
more robust, so, that I can redo it and post it to share with
everybody.
thanks,
Derek

RFC to soap with attachment

Hi all,
I need to implement a synchronous scenario where an R/3 system sends data via RFC to an external system that expects it in the format of soap with attachment. Then the external system responds with soap message without attachment.
My main concern is how to create a soap attachment from payload that I get from the RFC sender adapter.
I would appreciate any your suggestion how to implement this scenario. If possible, I would prefer to avoid using java modules and BPM, since I am not very skilled with them.
Thanks Janos.

well i think your darkest fears just came true ... the only option here is to write a module to create the attachments for you. The trick is once the module create the attachment, you need to check the option keep attachments in the SOAP receiver CC.

InvalidSecurity Exception in WS and SOAP with Attachment

Hi all, 
 
I created a EJB based webservice with the following signature: 
public String businessMethod2(byte[] arg1) {..} 
 
 
This Method is exposed as webservice, which is configured as SOAP with Attachment. 
All security or authentication settings are disabled by intention. 
The input param arg1 should be a binary file.
 
When I call this webservice I always get the following response: 
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" 
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> 
 <SOAP-ENV:Body> 
 <SOAP-ENV:Fault> 
 <faultcode xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd">wsse:InvalidSecurity</faultcode> 
 <faultstring>000F1F90EDDB006C00000012000014D8000437A5EE6DAE4E : WS Security can only be applied on a SOAP document.</faultstring> 
 <detail> 
 <ns1:com.sap.security.core.server.ws.service.WSSecurityException xmlns:ns1="http://sap-j2ee-engine/error">000F1F90EDDB006C00000012000014D8000437A5EE6DAE4E : WS Security can only be applied on a SOAP document.</ns1:com.sap.security.core.server.ws.service.WSSecurityException> 
 </detail> 
 </SOAP-ENV:Fault> 
 </SOAP-ENV:Body> 
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope> 
 
 
My guess is, that the WAS 7.00 SP11 is magically configured for applying WS-Security to every webservice. 
 
The Security Profile settings for Inbound / Outbound - Paramters is "None" in Visual Admin Webservice Security. 
 
How can I get rid of this Exception and make the webservice work?

Gabi

HI, i have found an example that illustrates the reception and return of SOAP attachments

'DataHandler'. I typed 'public String echoAttachment(DataHandler dh) and it said

And if convenient, can i have the source code of attaching images to SOAP?
Thanks alot.

How can I get JAXM SOAP with Attachement parts?

I received a SOAP with attachment message.
Attached data is XML document("text/xml" type).
But when I try to get a attachment part by using below source code, I got a NullPointerException.
Iterator it = message.getAttachments();
AttachmentPart attachment = (AttachmentPart)it.next();
StreamSource content = (StreamSource)attachment.getContent(); <=content is not Null.
InputStream inputstream = content.getInputStream(); <= inputstream is Null.
StreamSource object is OK, but it doesn't return InputStream object.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks in advance.
Junhong.

Hi!
Use the following to get the stream:
InputStream is = attachment.getDataHandler().getInputStream();

SOAP w/Attachment: SwA question

I am working on a SOAP w/Attachment web service to return an octet stream for a PDF file.
If I understand how this works, the SOAP envelope indicates that the real data (the octet stream) is coming after the SOAP envelope. I have setup the web service in the HTML DB web services area and tested it. It returns a SOAP envelop and after it comes a bunch of data which I assume is the octet stream.
I do not know what I need in the way of an XSL rendering style sheet to make this work. Is it even the right place to be looking to redirect the octet stream to the web browser as a know file format, in this case a PDF file.

Tool to test Webservices using SwA (Soap with Attachements)

Hi All,
I generally use the took xmlspy to test any webservice.
But now i am working with a webservice that is using SOAP with Attachemtns.
it seems we cannot use xmlspy to test/invoke webservices that use soap with attachements.
is there any tool by which we can send/receive soap message along with attachements to and from webservices.

Hi,
Have you tried SoapUI?
The standard (free) version & SoapUI Pro both support soap with attachments. Try it out & see if it works for you. SoapUI is proving to be one of the best tools for testing web services.

Issue in File to SOAP as Attachment

Hi,
I have scenario from File to SOAP.
I ma to send two files one file as content of SOAP request and other one as file attachment. The problem is i cannot send message both file content and file attachment.
Because when i select the "keep attachment" in the SOAP adapter both content and attachment become attachment, but if i didn't tick, only content is display by the recipient without the attachment.
How can i configure SOAP adapter so the recipient can receive both content file and attachment file.
Solution will be rewarded
Thanks
Jaideep Baid

hi gaurav,
   actually my SOAP payload will be a file only but I wnat to send till a perticular node as a SOAP payload and rest part as an attachment.
like
message----Root node
      field 1
      field 2
      field 3
         subfield 1
         subfield 2
         subfield 3
         subfield 4
SO i want till field2 it should go as payload and from field 3 i should go as attachment.
OR i can make two files of different name.
file1's content
   field 1
   field 2
file2's content
    field 3
         subfield 1
         subfield 2
         subfield 3
         subfield 4
Now in this case file 1 should go as SOAP payload and File2 as attachment.
So that In XI i can see two different file one named as mainDocument and other one name as Attachment.
Plzz suggest any solution
Thanks

SOAP Message Attachment MIME Problem

Hi there,
I'm having problem trying to send a binary file with SOAP.
I can send an XML Doc (MIME type text/xml) but when I try to put the ByteArrayInputStream that holds the binary file and the content to application/octec-stream
I got this exception:

Anyone had this problem ?
Any work around ?
Or this is a problem because the JAXM is not fineshed yet ?

Hey guys... I pray you are all still listening.
I have been on the most mind numbing cookie trail ever (I'm blatantly lying - I'm a Java programmer!) following these blasted exception trails to an 'Unknown Source'
After initially reading this thread I quickly knocked up ObjectDataSource as follows:
import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.activation.DataSource;
public class ObjectDataSource
implements DataSource
     public static final long serialVersionUID;
     public static final String CONTENT_TYPE;
     static {
          serialVersionUID = 42L;
          CONTENT_TYPE = "application/x-java-serialized-object";
     } // end static initializer
     private byte[] objectBytes;
     private String contentId;
     public ObjectDataSource(Serializable object, String contentId)
     throws IOException
          if (contentId == null || contentId.equals(""))
               this.contentId = object.getClass().getName();
          else
               this.contentId = contentId;
          ByteArrayOutputStream baoStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
          ObjectOutputStream ooStream = new ObjectOutputStream(baoStream);
          ooStream.writeObject(object);
          ooStream.flush();
          ooStream.close();
          objectBytes = baoStream.toByteArray();
     } // end primary constructor
     public InputStream getInputStream()
     throws java.io.IOException
          ByteArrayInputStream baiStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(objectBytes);
          return new ObjectInputStream(baiStream);
     } // end getInputStream

     throws java.io.IOException
          throw new IOException("Cannot write to this stream");
     } // end getOutputStream

          return CONTENT_TYPE;
     } // end getContentType
     public String getName()
          return contentId;
     } // end getName
} // end ObjectDataSource classand use it as follows:
AttachmentPart attachment = soapResponse.createAttachmentPart();
ObjectDataSource ods = new ObjectDataSource(requestedObject, null);
attachment.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(ods));
attachment.setContentId(ods.getName());
soapResponse.addAttachmentPart(attachment);
soapResponse.saveChanges();... this is within my 'SOAPServlet extends JAXMServlet' servlet, which happens to work fine when testing the servlet outside a web-container. But testing with Tomcat 5.5.x It doesn't work... infact, it damn well dissappears. I try readObject after retrieving and casting the InputStream to an ObjectInputStream from the AttachmentPart, but I get a:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.io.ByteArrayInputStream which is totally bizzare!
So I do a bit of investigation to discover ....
application/x-java-serialized-object
java.lang.String
javax.mail.internet.MimePartDataSource
java.io.ByteArrayInputStream
0 // this would be the available bytes in the ByteArrayInputStreamNow the first two lines confirm my ObjectDataSource is there somewhere or that that data was sent over the wire (ha, i'm on the same damn machine), but where the hell did MimePartDataSource come from?
I have previously encountered the various exceptions including java.io.EOFException when trying to read from the byte stream and java.io.StreamCorruptedException when wrapping that byte stream with an object stream.
These setbacks have royally ****ed my project; cahnces are slim that it will get finished. I'm ready to give up.
Any help will be appreciated?
Warm regards,

refer this link for sample.. If you are not java programmer take help from java experts. Basically you have to use jdbc java classes to retrieve and convert the display into image.

For soap attachment refer payloadswapbean module. Refer sdn forum related to this.... also see this help [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/2e/bf37423cf7ab04e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm]

Help converting or reading SOAP XML-attachment instead of payload

Hi,
I have to setup a webservice that excepts an xml-file as an attachment and read that xml-file as if it where the main payload of the message.
The messages we receive holds all the data I need in the attachment instead of the data being in the SOAP-body itself. This isnt something I can change since this is a solution provided by amadeus e-travel and I have no chance of changing how they send data to us.
I have searched and searched the forums but havent been able to find a solution(that I understand) to how I can access the xml-file either in a mapping-routine or by simply swapping the payload with the attachment all together.
As of now I have a webservice that is functional and receives the call from the source(amadeus e-travel) without a problem. I can also see the attachment in SXMB_MONI where it looks like a perfect xml-structure. But I have no idea on how to access the attachment so that I can use the data inside it in an abap-proxy in our ECC-system.
As far as I have read on the forums I cannot use the payloadswapbean in the SOAP senderadapter so that option is out. I have seen mention of a java-class for reading attachements in mapping-routines but sadly I'm not much of a Java-programmer and dont have access to one either at the moment. I would need a detailed explanation in order for a java-program to be a viable solution for me.
Is there some trick I have missed here or blog that shows how to read xml-attachments in a soap-message?
Is there any standard Java-code I can use to read the whole xml-structure from the attachment in a mapping-routine?
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance ,
Halvor

Option-1:
This might be a crude way, but you can acheive by a 2 step process...
Step1 (Scenario-1) - Receive XML-Msg + Attachment using SOAP Sender adapter. As we have payloadwaapbean module limitation in sender adapter. Let it be a passthru to receiver SOAP adapter. (Don't do any processing in integration engine, like msg mapping or thything). In Rx SOAP adapter,use payloadswapbean to swap XML msg with Payload and resent it to 2nd integration scenario...
Step2(Scenario-2) - As you have the Attachment as main-payload, you can continue ur normal msg processing on it.
Option2:
SOAP messages can also be processed using AXIS-SOAP Adapter.. you can add XI module in it Check it if it might help you...

SOAP with Attachment Support in Web AS Java

Hello,
I want to write an extension to an existing Java application running on Web AS to take a PDF (which is a binary object in the context) and submit it using a Web Service call to a Web Service running on a WebSphere App Server. My idea is to use SOAP with attachments to do this. I know how to create a simple Web Service call with the NWDS, but I am not so sure about a Web Service call with an attachment.
1) Is SOAP with attachments supported in Web Java/NWDS?
2) Does it require a specific Web AS 6.40 SP Stack?
3) Has anyone used this before? Is there anything I need to consider (e.g. encoding of the attachment)?
4) Is there a maximum file size for the attachment?
You help is appreciated. And if I get it running I can show it at TechEd
Cheers!
Matthias

I found what causes the problem.
I use resource bundle to handle i18n and one of bundle is myapp_zh.properties for Chinese locale. In browser I add Chinese [zh] in Language Preference then the web page should display Chinese character.
What puzzles me is that encoding of the page with Chinese characters is Chinese Simplified (GB2312) rather than UTF-8. Tomcat correctly sets page Encoding to UTF-8 since I specify <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %> in each JSP file. Why Web AS ignores this and returns Chinese character in GB2312?
Thanks a lot
John
