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

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?
 
 
regards 
Gabi

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.

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.
How to create modules -

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();

XML BLOB to SOAP with attachment

Is it possible to receive in XI an asyc. message with BLOB information in an XML tag
and transform it to SOAP message with attachment?

>how to convert the BLOB to the pdf\jpg\tiff file attachment in the SOAP?
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.
http://www.techlabs4u.com/2011/10/reading-blob-data-in-db2-using-java-how.html
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]

UTF-8 support in Web AS Java 6.40

Hi, All,
Our web application running on Web AS 6.40 with SQL Server 2000 needs to support multiple languages. We create the tables with column type NVARCHAR, set encoding scheme to UTF-8 for JDBC driver, add '<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %>' header in every JSP file and execute request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") before every request is posted to the server. Everything is fine when running the same application on Tomcat with the same database & JDBC driver, enter Chinese charater in web page, store them in table, display result back... But the application deployed in Web AS Java cannot save and show Chinese character correctly.
I think I must miss some points here because UME actually supports to create user and role in Chinese...
Any help is deeply appreciated.
John

Implementation of DataHandler and SOAP with attachment

HI, i have found an example that illustrates the reception and return of SOAP attachments
in web service method. However, the weblogic workshop I am using does not recognise
'DataHandler'. I typed 'public String echoAttachment(DataHandler dh) and it said
'web service does not support such data type'. Is there any resolution to it?
And if convenient, can i have the source code of attaching images to SOAP?
Thanks alot.
Good Day!

Hi Jeet,
If you want your file adapter to read contents from a PDF file, check out the folloing blog,
<a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/07/31/xi-read-data-from-pdf-file-in-sender-adapter">Sender File Adapter with PDF</a>
If you want your file adapter to generate its output into a PDF file, then check the following blog,
<a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/07/27/xi-generate-pdf-file-out-of-file-adapter">Receiver File Adapter With PDF</a>
Sriram's blog on FILE to HTTP scenario might of be help to you too. It also deals with Syn / Async Bridge which can be ignored.

ALV table in Web dynpro java

Hello Experts,
I have a task to migrate the usage of UI element IWDtable to ALV Table in my application for some features like Sorting and filtering supported in ALV table.
I searched in Google and SDN about the ALV table, could not find any document about ALV table in Java (Found docs only with ABAP).
Is ALV table supported in Web dynpro java ? If yes, please pass me the URL for the basics of ALV table.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Harish

Hello,
I understand from previous posts in this thread, that the ALV is not yet available for use within WebDynpro. Although it is already documented in the NWDS documentation under:
SAP NetWeaver CE Developer Studio Documentation > Developer's Guide > Developing and Composing Applications > Developing User Interfaces with Web Dynpro for Java > Reference > UI Element Guide > Tables and Lists > Displaying Lists with SAP List Viewer > Integrating SAP List Viewer into Applications
Since it is listed under "Developing User Interfaces with Web Dynpro for Java" I would assume that is should be possible. We are on NW CE 7.1 SP5.
I tried to get a test application running based on the documentation, but the documentation is too thin and I run into an Null-Pointer exception in a SAP class called:
at com.sap.ip.bi.alv.rendering.ALVGraphicsRenderer.init(ALVGraphicsRenderer.java:117)
If it is not yet released for use then I wonder why it is already part of the documentation ?
Take care
Ingo

Soap with attachments

I am a newbie to Soap do anyone have examples on soap with attachment.My requirement I need to send a zip file as an attachment from server to client using soap protocol and download that on client.I think we can do with SAAJ but do anyone have example..I need it immediately.Thanks in advance.
Ragavendra.

The jwsdp 1.1 tutorial has an example of using saaj to add an attachment to a soap message. See JWSDP_HOME\docs\tutorial\doc\JAXM5.html and search for "Adding Attachments". For attaching a zip file, a DataHandler is probably easiest:
DataHandler dh = new DataHandler(new FileDataSource("skwish.zip"));
AttachmentPart attachment = message.createAttachmentPart(dh);
attachment.setContentId("zip_data"); // optional
message.addAttachmentPart(attachment); Mike

How to set up environment for web dynpro Java?

We want to develop applications in Java Web Dnpro.
What do I need to configure in SAP R3 to use Web Dynpro Java?
I can develop applications on the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio and only perform a configuration in SAP ECC ?
Or do I need to install SAP EC Composition Environment ?
Can I develop and set up RFC connections to integrate with my application in Web Dynpro Java?
Please help me,
Regards,
Viviane

Dear Viviane,
In the webdynpr java application, you can use the data from SAP system. like you can use RFC's, Bapi's in your webdynpro application.
Refer to [Linking RFC to Web Dynpro|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/761eba66-0401-0010-b982-d5f5bd9e8f90?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true] and http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDJava/WelcometoWebDynproJava%21
