XDK Beta and J2EE app with web services

Does anyone have experienced problems by using the XML parser from XDK v10/v9204? I have created a custom library to point to the XDK's parser and deleted the Oracle XML parser v2 included in JDev. My application also includes Oracle SOAP... and I was wondering if this configuration will run? Having Oracle SOAP and a Parser different from the original one? Will this work?

I think you will have problems regardless of the approach you take. I have followed up on this and here are the choices you have to use the new 9.2.0.4 parser, as I understand it, in your application:
1. Delete/backup the old xmlparserv2.jar and replace it with the new one. As there seems to be some new dependencies associated with it (for example xmlmesg.jar), you have to make sure this too is included.
2. When you start OC4J you can pass in the -Xbootclasspath parameter the location of your jar files (e.g. the new parser and associated files). Those files will override the ones that are hardwired into OC4J - e.g.
java -Xbootclasspath/a:D:\temp\xdk\lib\xmlparserv2.jar -jar oc4j.jar
I did option one and then tried working with a number of different Web services that previously worked out of the box and they no longer worked - I got a number of parser errors during the build and run phases.
What this suggests to me, and I believe this is how Oracle Support would treat this, is that the XDK 9.2.0.4 can be used stand alone and the components should work together. If you try to engineer the 9.2.0.4 XDK into the 9.0.3 OC4J/JDev environment, it may or may not work but you unfortunately won't be supported as the only supported configuration is that which is shipped as a product. As far as I know that has been the way the one off XDK's have generally been treated unless it was subsequently indicated by Oracle Support that a particular one-off XDK fixed issues - as far as I know that has not been said for XDK 9.2.0.4 and the 9.0.3 OC4J/JDev stack.
In your case because you would like to use SOAP, the soap.jar that ships with the XDK and should work with the XDK stack is unfortunately out of date. Your natural reaction to try to use the updated one is however where you will run into trouble as no one has regression tested 9.2.0.4 against the 9.0.3 soap.jar files.
Sorry for the long answer but hopefully it clarifies.

Java app with web service and servlets

Hi. I intend to make a java application which exposes some methods as a web service and as jsp/servlets. It's core functionality is not really web centric, but its more a java app with a web tier. I am not sure about how the architecture of such a system would look like using the java platform. I currently see three options:
1. Run everything in a servlet container like tomcat. I hesitate to do this because i would be putting a lot of functionality which isn't about the web into a servlet container. Also, I have a lot of application scope data that is maintained and shared by all servlets/web services. However, it would be really easy just to put everything into tomcat and use ServletContext to maintain some global objects.
2. Use a Java EE to seperate application/business logic and data access into session beans and entity beans. I hesitate to this because it seem a bit overkill because the system isn't very big or complex right now. It also means that I would have to learn to use EJB's instead of just using some POJOs.
3. Run the web tier in a servlet container and the main app in a separate JVM, and then connect the tier by sending serialized objects over TCP sockets. I don't like writing network code but at least there is some separation of the tiers.
What would you do? Maybe I have overlooked a much better solution to the problem?
Let me just say that the system is the product of a student project spanning one semester, so it's important to choose the RIGHT solution (architectural-wise) instead of the something quick and dirty that is hard to defend.

Let me just say that the system is the product of a student project spanning one semester, so it's important to choose the RIGHT solution (architectural-wise) That pretty much makes it impossible then.
1. A "Right" solution is generally only proven by time.
2. It requires a great deal of knowledge about the business domain.Yeah, you are right. Let be try to rephrase it. What solution (pattern) would be considered the most common or appropriate when you have a Java App and want to expose a few methods as a website and web service?
I hesitate to do this because i would be putting a lot of functionality which isn't about the web into a servlet container. Also, I have a lot of application scope data that is maintained and shared by all servlets/web servicesHuh? Do you already have an exposed web service? If you already have a server which other clients communicate then where does this functionality that you don't want to be tomcat running now? Or where do you think that you want to run it? And if you are or do run it somewhere else then tomcat could access it the same way any other client accesses that server.Sorry, that sentence was written badly. I don't have anything right now. What I meant to write was that I will have a lot of application scope data, objects that are kept in memory as long as the server is running, shared by multiple servlet instances.

Parameters and database login with Web Services SDK

I need to know how to do the two most common report tasks through the Web Services interface to Crystal Reports Server 2008:
How do I get a list of a report's parameters and set the parameter's values?
How do I set the database login information?
I have considerable experience with writing custom web interfaces for Business Objects Enterprise with .NET, but now we're supposed to use web services instead of Enterprise services, especially when writing Windows forms apps. The official line is that writing thick client apps using Enterprise services is "possible but not supported." I can't seem to find the equivalent to the .Parameters property in Web Services.
The tutorials for Web Services aren't much help. The BIPlatform examples show how to schedule a report without parameters and without setting the database login, but this isn't much help in the real world. The ReportEngine tutorial was apparently written by someone else, and is little or no help.
This seems like such a simple question, but I have wasted an entire day and am no closer to the answer.

I think the following resources will help:

How can I authenticate and authorize with Web Service on ESB ?

Hello,
I want to authenticate and authorize client with Web Service published
by HTTP/SOAP BC.
Simply if it is an Web Service as J2EE application, I will use
Basic Authentication with JAX-RPC and Realm.
But I think that Web Service published by HTTP/SOAP BC is not belong
to J2EE Application. Threre is no place to describe security role mapping
(like web.xml).
JBI 1.0 the section "5.5.1.1.3 Normalized Message Properties" comments
JAAS Subject is given in the NM Properties. Really in this package
com.sun.jbi.internal.security.*
implements JAAS autentication and authorization (at JaasAuthenticator).
But I can't see how to configure my Service to use this.

How to use call back and user session id based conversation with web service in weblogic 6.1 sp2 ?????????

Hi, every one:
Here's my question of my day - >>>
I am using weblogic 6.1 SP2 right now - running on Unix and Win 2K, and
I got a web service up and running called Price Update web service through
which user can pick up a price and push a deal to another web service
called: deal service, the deal service will take the user deal and book the
deal ( sending a JMS message to a Queue, a MD will pick up and do the work,
then send the confirmation to another JMS Queue ), then the confirmation
will be picked up and sent to another web service , called: User Deal
Confirmation Service, here's the question:
1. Since the client application is only allowed to see its own confirmed
deals, how I can make the confirmed deal encrypted based on a server
generated key or the session id that client application provides
2. Now, I have 3 webservices: update, deal and confirm, each of them has a
client.jar file available - from the client application point of view, do I
need all these 3 client.jar, or I just need one of them ?????
3. How can I use web service call back in wls 6.1 sp2 ?????? - in the 7.0
beta, you can do this easily in the workshop, in the second question above,
I think I need some how relate the confirmation to the client conversation
id ??
thanks a lot for the input, have a nice day.

mark.

Any comments ?

Infopath 2007 and SharePoint 2007 error with Web Service Submit and Recieve

I have an InfoPath form with code. The code submits the form to SharePoint and to SQL DB through Web Service. The form has some workflow. When form is in a "New" state if submits to SharePoint and Database through custom web service. Works fine
from both Client and SharePoint browser form. The database ID is returned to the form and then stored in a field. In second stage of workflow additional fields are shown for Supervisor to fill out. I then have an "update" web service to update the
database. I set all the field values in the Web service then execute both the update Web Service and the SharePoint submit. I get an error (both if running from desktop or SharePoint) Error is
"The string '' is not a valid AllXsd value"
I know sometimes this happens with dates. But I've got all the dates set. The funny thing is in the first submit there are 2 dates in the second submit there is one date. All are set the same and on the first submit no problem submits correct dates to SQL
database through web Service. Second submit has 2 Boolean fields that I also default to a value of false. I've debugged and looked at all the values and everything has a value. I use delete NIL to make sure value in Web Service is set. I can save the data
in the form but not submit it because I get the web service error. If I save the data in form and download it and copy all the values in the XML to my Web Service and invoke the web service works fine. So there is no error in the web service. The first
submit submits both dates and some integer values. The only difference in second is the Boolean value but it is set to default of false for all checkboxes. I'm going out of mind trying to see what could be wrong. Also difference with second
is it sends in the ID of the record that was set in form by result of first submit query sending back the DB value. That value is an integer but I also set correctly.

Hi Somatco,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you ran report with xml type datasource.
Please set the xml datasource credential to Use Windows Authentication (integrated security). More information, please refer to the link:

Axis and Mime to send Images with Web Services

Hi, I have been reading a lot of information about MIME and how I have to send images or attachaments with Web Services, and I am a little lost. I would to find a simple example to use MIME with AXIS 1.4 . Do anybody know where I can find some example to use attachements with AXIS???
Thank you very much in advance

Hi,
When you are using JAX-WS, there is a tool wsimport, with which you are going to generate the artifacts required to implement the web service.
When you pass the WSDL as a parameter to the wsimport tool, it will be create the required beans also(JAXB Objects).
So need of any other external implementation of JAXB when you are working with JAXWS
Thanks,

Session with web service

Hi,
I would like to know if there is a kind of session management with SOAP messages. I have found the interface IF_SOAP_SESSION_PROTOCOL, in which you can put in 'stateful' mode, however I wasn't able to use it.
In fact, I try to understand what stateful means for SOAP in SAP, and if you can log/manage the session of a user, in order to see what he do (without requested authentification/identification).

Gautier
Edit: I don't know if it is the good forum or if I would have choose 'NetWeaver Platform's one

What do I do to close eform on screen and display response of web service in another screen.?

Hi,
I am trying to build following functionality.
I want to submit form to a web service through SOAP request on click of a button.
I want to display response of web service like “form has been submitted successfully” on screen.
What has been achieved.
I am able to submit form to an adobe web service passing base64 string to adobe process.(see the script in image#1).
When I receive base64 string in adobe process, I am able to re-generate document (using getDocFromBase64(/process_data/@inputStr) ).
After that I am returning a message string to as response “Form submitted successfully”.
When I get the response I populate response to a text field variable (Out Str). See image#2
Problem/Desirable functionality.
I want to close this eform and display the message “form has been submitted successfully” on another page in browser so that it depicts to end user that form has been submitted successfully with confirmation.
What do I do to close eform on screen and display response of web service in another screen.?
Image#1
Image#2

Method1: This method only works in same PDF window.
On the click of the submit button, based on the webservice result we can close the PDF. As you already having in the "Out Str", this variable having detailed message kind of thing, so it would be easier if you have one more output variable to know if this submission is success or failure or can use the "Out Str", it self to compare and close the PDF.
Here i am using "strResult" to hold webservice success or failure using true/ false values.
Get the "strResult" value from binded field of webservice response and compare and close or display messages based on requirement.
var strResult = YourFieldname.rawValue;
                    if(strResult != "" && strResult != null){
                              if(strResult.toUpperCase() == "TRUE"){
                                        xfa.host.messageBox("Successfully Saved the Data.", "Submit Confirmation", 3,0);
                                        //Close the PDF
                                        app.execMenuItem("Close");
                    else{
                              xfa.host.messageBox("Failed to Save the Data.", "Submit Confirmation", 3,0);
If the result need to show in separate window and having LiveCycle process connected to PDF via. webservice or REST:
Method2. If the PDF inside the browser
Type1 - You can set the process output is document variable, this PDF may contain your static/dynamic message and this PDF. But with this method result PDF opens in same window, host pdf will be disappeared.
Type2 - You can set the process output is string variable, this STRING may contain your static/dynamic message. In this method the string will be appered in the same PDF window, host pdf will be disappeared.
Method3. If the PDF is stand alone (not opend in any browser)
Type1 - You can set the process output is document variable, this PDF may contain your static/dynamic message and this PDF. But with this method result PDF opens in new window, host pdf will be also stayed and may make readonly after submission success.
Type2 - If the process output is string, it cannot handle this situation, may get the content type exception while receiving the result string, because.
Used all of the above methods in various situations and it worked without any issues.

No result while creating a service consumer with Web Service Wizzard

Hi,
I've tried to create a service consumer with Web Service Wizzard in SE80 by using URL/HTTP Destination but nothing happens. After the popup with logondata for the WSDL I get the CRM start screen and nothing has been created in the given package.
technical details:
I use a CRM 5.0 system with SP15 (SAPKB70015).
I created the provider service at a 7.10 system with SP5 (SAPKB71005) via SPROXY, SOAMANAGER and WSPUBLISH and get the WSDL-URL from Service Registry.
The Service Registry of the 7.10 system serves as central Service Registry.
Has anybody an idea ?
Christoph

Guy,
Thanks for your reply.
This problem has been solved. Since I haven't turned on everything that to use transaction SOAMANAGER needs. After complete the switch-on works, the problem never happens again.
Thanks again.

How can I create a query with web service data control?

I need to create a query with web service data control, in WSDL, it's query operation, there is a parameter message with the possible query criteria and a return message contains the results. I googled, but cannot find anything on the query with web service. I cannot find a "Named Criteria" in web service data control like normal data control. In Shay's blog, I saw the topics on update with web service data control. How can I create a query with web service data control? Thanks.

Any existing BAPI that can be wrapped and exposed as a web service ???

Hi ,
I am designing PI Collaboration Platform and that all about Monitoring across SAP ECC, SAP PI and Non-SAP applications.
BUSINESS CASE: Some clients are looking for a solution that allows there management some visibility into the end-to-end aspect of processes, we will limit our discussion to SAP ECC and PI.
SOLUTION: BAM ultimately helps solve this problem at an enterprise level - however that is a heavy investment for most organizations - is there an alternative that we can provide ? Example a generic web service that can be invoked from a 3rd party tool to provide reports.
We do have solution :
We can configure Proxy adapter and can write Java web service to invoke a method to extract the data from ECC and one or more report generating methods based on the standard ( like PDF,EXCEL etc)
but we are still looking for an existing BAPI that can be wrapped and exposed as a web service ????
Need solution for the above ?

Hi Sanjay,
Yes BAM has a bigger take, if you are looking for PI monitoring reports then please have a look at the following blogs which might
give you some insight.this basically deal with reading data from SXMB_MONI tables.

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/PIMonitoringFunctionality-FetchingDatafromSXMB_MONIStandardTables-PartI
i dont think there is any BAPI as such atleast wrt to PI.

How to do a InsertOrUpdate with web services 2.0

I understand that InsertOrUpdate method is just valid for Web Services 1.0.
a) Is there a way to do it with web services 2.0 ? I imagine using a query and then Update or Insert.
b) if we decide to use web services 1.0 would there be any cons ? (besides a possible performance issue as in the documentation)
c) InsertOrUpdate uses the record "user key" for identification. If need to identify using another field, I suppose that the only way is thru query, etc. Any other ideas ?
Txs. for any help.
Antonio

Hello Antonio,
I understand that InsertOrUpdate method is just valid for Web Services 1.0.Correct, the InsertOrUpdate method is not available in WS v2.0.
a) Is there a way to do it with web services 2.0 ? I imagine using a query and then Update or Insert.That is one possibility, however it means that every insert or update would consist of two operations. I would suggest reviewing your requirements and expected use cases for a way to determine whether a record is being inserted or updated within CRMOD. The specific approach would depend on whether how the records to be entered into CRMOD are compiled (i.e. user interaction vs. batch sync component)
b) if we decide to use web services 1.0 would there be any cons ? (besides a possible performance issue as in the documentation)There are some objects that are not supported for WS v1.0 as well as the fact that field coverage is not as complete as the WS v2.0 interface.
c) InsertOrUpdate uses the record "user key" for identification. If need to identify using another field, I suppose that the only way is thru query, etc. Any other ideas ?Only certain fields or sets of fields can be used as a user key. These are described in the WS user guide. You can query on other fields to find a record in CRMOD but a unique value must be provided to identify a record for an update operation.
Thanks,
Sean
