Types Of Web Services

Hi All,
Could you tell me what type of Web Services can be called by XI or SOAP adapter?
Regards,
XIer

Hey,
With SOAP adapter you can connect to any external webservice / remote clients.
Check this scenario

Problem with datetime data type in Web Service

Hi,
I created local ABAP proxy based on a WSDL and some of the fields for the SOAP methods has data type datetime:
name="MsgEndTimeStamp" type="s:dateTime" />
name="MsgStatus" type="s:string"/>
Since ABAP stack doesnt support dataTime data type it has created the proxy method with data type STRING. Now when I call the proxy method (consuming the service) I get an error:
<CODE>SoapFaultCode:4</CODE>
<ERRORTEXT>Server was unable to read request. --> There is an error in XML document (1, 626). --> String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.</ERRORTEXT>
I am sure others have faced the same issue. Can someone help?
Thanks

Thanks but I dont think that link is much relevant to the problems I am facing, because I cannot change the web service definition as it is used by many others. Also the target application runs on oracle so thats why some of the fields are datetime and I dont want to change that, even if I could.
I am just stuck in creating the wrapper program to call the service since the SAP converts datetime data type to string and when the messages gets to the application it cannot convert string -> datetime.
thanks anyway

Complex Return types from web service

Hi,
Iam developing a web service using axis.In that i want to return array of objects to the client.
But when iam calling from the client side iam getting the class cast exception.
I wrote server-config.wsdd file manually. do i need to add any more if i want to return array of java beans.
server-config.wsdd
<service name="MyService" provider="java:RPC">
    <requestFlow>
      <handler type="soapmonitor"/>
    </requestFlow>

</service>
ServiceDelegate:
public ABCVo[] getCount(String accessType,long orgId,Date fromDate,Date toDate)
          return ABCVo[];
client:
I place all the stubs in the client app as a jar file. and the code is just like
ABCVo[] so     =     del.getCount("group",l,calendar,calendar);

How to know return type in Web service

{color:#0000ff}I am writing a web service client application. After invoking the service it gets the result as SOAP massage. But i need to know the return type also. How can i do that?
{color}
here is the response obtained from web service after invoking a subtract method, it is giving correct value but doesn't give tye of value.
<ns:SubtractResponse xmlns:ns="http://example.ws"><ns:return>81</ns:return></ns:SubtractResponse>

View WSDL(Web Service Description Language) file of the web service. Normally WSDL file of any web service can be referenced by appending "wsdl" at the end of web service URL. e.g. http://www.abs.com/mywebservice/invokewebservice?wsdl
Shazzad wrote:

How can i do that?WSDL file for a web service contains all information regarding the web service like types, message, portType, binding, service etc. Types section have schema definitions of all messages which are being used in web service. here you can find everything about all elements, fields for all the messages in the WebService including type of the values.
You can find more about WSDL on Sun and Google very easily.
Hope this will help.

How to bind complex input/output types in web service data control

Hi,
I have created data control using external web service for simple input & output data type and its working fine.
But I don't know how it can be done for complex data types.
My external Web services have complex input & output types. Such as java object which contains another java object again it contains another java object or arry or java collection etc.
Each my service has one complex input data type and for this no user input is require so how I can do it without using any component for it.
I want to bind my page components with this input & output type.
What is the best approach to do this and how to bind screen component.

Creating a Document type Asynchronous Web Services

Hi,
I am trying to create a Document typ Asynchronous webservice, following the request/reply pattern. Can anyone point me to some tutorial which explains this, or explain the way the service implementation has to be.
I want to know how to do the call back or polling faclity in the service implementation.

Hello,
The OracleAS Core Web Service stack currently (10.1.3 and earlier) does not have any API/DevModel, to create an Asynch service.
However you can still use JAX-RPC/SAAJ APIs to manipulate the WS-Addressing information to faciliate the call back. For the implementation itself you will have to choose what fits you the best, for example using JMS under the cover to process the event that will do the call back.
It is also true that today, we have lot of customers that use Oracle BPEL to create asynchronous services since it is 100% declarative.

Best way to handle Interface Return Type for Web Service Method

Hi All,
i have the followinig situation. I would like to create a method as a web service:
Customer getCustomer(someType){....}
ie: getCustomer method, with a parameter that indicates some backend data source. The method returns a Customer object. However, depending on the datasource this method uses (which is dependent on the type passed in, ie FooDB, BarDB etc) then i return either a:
FooCustomer extends AbstractCustomer implements Customer
BarCustomer extends AbstractCustomer implements Customer
Now this fails because JAXB cant handle interfaces because when sending XML over the wire it needs a concrete representation (as far as i understand).
So how should i deal with this?
Do I need to create a differnet method for each datasource (foo DB, bar DB), ie:
FooCustomer getFooCustomer()
BarCustomer getBarCustomer()
or do i continue calling getCustomer but somehow indicate in the WSDL that I have an AbstractCustomer object and some other bits from FooCusotmer or BarCustomer or ....
kinda stumpeed here? I wouldve thought itd be handy to be able to do this (ie: call one getCustomer() method and get back Customer objects representing nay type of customer ... in some way...but cant see how to achieve this.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated
cheers
Marty

Working with complex data types in web services ...

Hi All,
I have created a webservice and created an interface for that in ADF. Now as my web service returns a complex data type, i followed the steps given in this article "http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/wsadf/adfcomplexwstypes.html" and it works fine, my results also get displayed. But only issue is i get a warning "JBO-25009: Cannot create an object of type:java.util.calendar with value:2008-09-23T23:51:30.000+05:30" and if i replace all the java.util.Date with oracle.jbo.domain.Date then i get a warning "JBO-25009: Cannot create an object of type:oracle.jbo.domain.Date with value:2008-09-23T23:51:30.000+05:30". Now i am unable to understand this although i believe it is a data type mapping issue, but not sure how to rectify it.
Anybody knows the wayout?
Regards
Lokesh

Andre,
Thanks for youe response. I also tried makeing data type as string in place of date in data control.xml and it worked fine. So it confirms that i am facing with exactly similar issue as yours.
I tried solution 2 mentioned in Frank's mail but its not helping[in fact i am already using web proxy as i am delaing with complex data types]. I created a web proxy and in java bean i placed break points to check the control flow[in order to check the root cause] but control never reaches the java bean!! I am not sure about the cause for it...control should pass through java bean isn't it??
I am quite new to SOA...so can somebody just elaborate on how to rectify this using web proxy. I have been using this rl "http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/wsadf/adfcomplexwstypes.html" to work with web proxies" to work with proxies.

Custom/Complex data types in web services

Hi,
I've read in several articles here on otn that JDev 9.0.3 would have better support for
creating web services with complex datatypes (like java.util.LinkedList), but still (in the 9.0.3 Preview)
theese methods are greyed out on the web service wizard. Am I missing something?
Until now I've worked with Custom Serializers, but they are time consuming and hard to work with.
/Mattias

Here are the two articles that will help:
JavaBeans as Web services parameter types:
http://otn.oracle.com/tech/webservices/htdocs/samples/customtype/content.html
Registering Web services custom serializers:
http://otn.oracle.com/tech/webservices/htdocs/samples/serialize/content.html
The new support in JDev 9.0.3 is that JavaBean parameters are now recognized by the JDev publishing wizards whereas in JDev 9.0.2 there was the workaround pointed to by the first article. In 9.0.2 the publishing support was only for primitive data types.
The upside of the custom serializers, is you can re-use your existing serializers if they happen to have been written to Apache SOAP.

Support for xs:date types in web services generated from EJB components

I need to generate a Web Service from an EJB session bean based upon EJB entities generated from the Oracle 11g database that contain DATE type columns.
JDeveloper creates java.sql.Timestamp types in the EJB Session bean and this results in an exception error when I try to generate a web service from this bean via webservice annotations:
java.security.PrivilegedActionException: com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.IllegalAnnotationsException: 1 counts of IllegalAnnotationExceptions
java.sql.Timestamp does not have a no-arg default constructor
I expected the web service wizard to generate argument types xs:dateTime or xs:date so this was an unwelcomed surprise.
I tried manually adding a method to the session bean with java.util.date arguments and had no problems with the web service wizard that correctly created xs:dateTime arguments. Is there any particular reason why the EJB wizard does not generate java.util.date arguments or handle java.sql.Timestamp without failing with an exception?
Since I begin with database tables and generate EJB entity classes and then web services with the Jdeveloper wizards it seems to me that there is a problem here in JDeveloper. Would you agree?
There are several possible more or less appealing workarounds, such as doing manually adding methods to the EJB facade with java.util.date arguments and doing the conversion from/to java.sql.timestamp manually. Is this a reasonable approach or does JDeveloper support date/time for Date columns in some other way that I have missed?
Very Grateful for any comments or suggestions.

Custom data types for Web Service services

Instead of language primitives (int, double) or Strings, is it possible to define custom data types (i.e. classes) for use in a service method argument or as a service return type? For example, if I create a class called MyClass then could I use it as an argument n a service as follows: someServiceMethod( MyClass myClassInstance). A service returning the custom type might look like this: MyClass getTheClassServiceMethod(String someString). Are either of these ideas possible?

Hi there,
you can use your own classes as service method argument or return type. But you should not forget to do a type mapping on both the service and client side.
I can tell you, how I am sending and receiving my own datatype called "FileBean" which is a simple JavaBean with getter() and setter() methods for the properties.
I'm using axis for deployment and tomcat as the web server, where my service runs on (currently only local but in future this will be remote).
Service class: "InstallationService.java"
Bean class: "FileBean.java"
Client class: "FileSaving.java"
My deploy.wsdd file has the following entry:
<beanMapping qname="myNS:FileBean"
xmlns:myNS="http://packageDelarationBackwards"
languageSpecificType="java:packageDeclaration.FileBean"/>
...The method header in my service:
public FileBean storeAttachments(FileBean file)The important part of my Client:
QName qnFileBean = new QName("http://packageDelcarationBackwards", "FileBean");
call = (Call) service.createCall();
call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(endpointURL) );
call.setOperationName(new QName("InstallationService","storeAttachments"));
call.setReturnType(qnFileBean);
call.registerTypeMapping(
                        FileBean.class,
                        qnFileBean,
                        new BeanSerializerFactory(FileBean.class, qnFileBean),
                        new BeanDeserializerFactory(FileBean.class, qnFileBean));
....After deploying the service and starting the server I can send my "FileBean", work with it and give it back.
Hope this helped. If you need more information, just let me know.

Complex type in web service request

Hello everybody...
Maybe not the best place, but have to start from somewhere.
Recently, I've started playing with utl_dbws package. I succeeded to call webservice with simple parameter. Now, I'd like to send (and receive) a parameter which is array of string.
I don't know is it possible with anydate type of request or have to create XML request.
Thx in advance for any comment or suggestion

Hi
did you get a solution for this?
Can you please post the solution for our academic interest.

Web service call problem with complex types input

We are trying to call a web service and pass as parameter
some complex types. When invoking the web service everything works
well on flex side, but on the server side the input parameters we
get from flex are not correct - complex type is removed and the
elements of the complex type are sent. See the example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute">
<mx:WebService id="ws_id" wsdl="link" useProxy="false"
fault="wsFault(event)">
<mx:operation id="op_id" name="op"
result="wsResult(event)">
<mx:request>
<parameters>
<parameter1>{value1}</parameter1>
<parameter2>{value2}</parameter2>
<parameter3>{value3}</parameter3>
<parameter4>
<parameter4_1>{value4_1}</parameter4_1>
<parameter4_2>{value4_2}</parameter4_2>
<parameter4_3>{value4_3}</parameter4_3>
</parameter4>
</parameters>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
</mx:WebService>
</mx:Application>
on server side we get this:
<parameters>
<parameter1>{value1}</parameter1>
<parameter2>{value2}</parameter2>
<parameter3>{value3}</parameter3>
<parameter4_1>{value4_1}</parameter4_1>
<parameter4_2>{value4_2}</parameter4_2>
<parameter4_3>{value4_3}</parameter4_3>
</parameters>
Instead of :
<parameters>
<parameter1>{value1}</parameter1>
<parameter2>{value2}</parameter2>
<parameter3>{value3}</parameter3>
<parameter4>
<parameter4_1>{value4_1}</parameter4_1>
<parameter4_2>{value4_2}</parameter4_2>
<parameter4_3>{value4_3}</parameter4_3>
</parameter4>
</parameters>
Any idea how is it possible to send complex type as web
service input from flex ?

Hi,
I also have similar type of problem where I need to invoke a Web service with Complex input parameters.
I followed Susan's blog but I stuck at a point where methos getItem is created.
Can anyone tell me how to get that method for my requirement.
If possible can you guys share your solutions here.
Thanks in advance.
