Java – code generated by soap UI

I have a web service and I'm trying to build a client

I have the following WSDL:

http://www.cmicdataservices.com/datacenter/service.asmx?wsdl

It requires authentication Looking at the WSDL description, I can't see the method of using authentication object, nor does it use user name and password as parameters Using NetBeans, I have generated Jax WS source code for WSDL However, I can't figure out what to do after that

Using soap UI, I can connect to the web service and run all the methods But again, I want to build it into a client that can run without my interaction

My problem is figuring out how to use this generated code, which looks like NetBeans TV has a video (NetBeans soapUI plug-in Video 2), which was later lost Does anyone know any tutorials or any examples of how to use this generated code to access Web services?

So I have a method checkifauthorized ()

Running in soap UI, I get the following XML

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope" xmlns:cmic="http://www.cmicdataservices.com/">
   <soap:Header>
      <cmic:Authentication>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <cmic:UserName>username</cmic:UserName>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <cmic:Password>password</cmic:Password>
      </cmic:Authentication>
   </soap:Header>
   <soap:Body>
      <cmic:CheckIfAuthorized/>
   </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Then, I can run the request in the soap UI and get a successful authentication response

Using the Jax WS code generated by NetBeans and soapUI, I have the following:

package javaapplication7;

/**
 *
 * @author grant
 */
public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Boolean result = checkIfAuthorized();
        System.out.println("The result is: " + result);
    }

    private static boolean checkIfAuthorized() {
        javaapplication7.CMICDatacenterService service = new javaapplication7.CMICDatacenterService();
        javaapplication7.CMICDatacenterServiceSoap port = service.getCMICDatacenterServiceSoap();
        return port.checkIfAuthorized();
    }
}

This will fail with the following error

run:
Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.ws.soap.soAPFaultException: Server was unable to process request. ---> Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.fault.soAP11Fault.getProtocolException(SOAP11Fault.java:178)

Java Result: 1

This is the same problem I encountered when trying to use Python for services I have chosen to use Java because I think I can parse XML and create objects faster because I have created this entity

thank you.

I didn't want to answer this question because I still wanted to know what I could do here, but I finally wrote the request by hand Now I can convert it into an XML object and do it my way, but I think soapUI makes it easier What I really don't understand is how to use soapUI to build this request and incorporate it into my project:

public class Main {

    public final static String DEFAULT_SERVER =
            "http://www.cmicdataservices.com/datacenter/service.asmx";
    public final static String SOAP_ACTION =
            "http://www.cmicdataservices.com/CheckIfAuthorized";

     public static void main(String[] args) {
         String server = DEFAULT_SERVER;
         String UserName = "Username";
         String Password="Password";


     try{
             URL url = new URL(server);
             HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

            connection.setDoOutput(true);
            connection.setDoInput(true);
            connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
            connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8");
            connection.setRequestProperty("Host","www.cmicdataservices.com");
            OutputStream out = connection.getOutputStream();
            Writer wout = new OutputStreamWriter(out);
            // Uncomment the following and comment out the prevIoUs two lines to see your xml
            //BufferedWriter wout = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("/tmp/testXML.xml"));

            //Start writing soap request - Envelope
            wout.write("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\r\n");
            wout.write("<soap12:Envelope ");
            wout.write("xmlns:xsi=");
            wout.write("'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' ");
            wout.write("xmlns:xsd=");
            wout.write("'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema' ");
            wout.write("xmlns:soap12=");
            wout.write("'http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope'>\r\n");

            //Soap request header start
            wout.write("<soap12:Header>\r\n");

            //Start writing soap request - Authentication
            wout.write("<Authentication xmlns=");
            wout.write("'http://www.cmicdataservices.com/'>\r\n");
            wout.write("<UserName>" + UserName + "</UserName>\r\n");
            wout.write("<Password>" + Password + "</Password>\r\n");
            // End Authentication
            wout.write("</Authentication>\r\n");

            //End the header
            wout.write("</soap12:Header>\r\n");

            //Start writing the body
            wout.write("<soap12:Body>");
            wout.write("<GetCurrentDataVer1 xmlns=");
            wout.write("'http://www.cmicdataservices.com/' />\r\n");
            // End the Body
            wout.write("</soap12:Body>\r\n");

            // End the Envelope
            wout.write("</soap12:Envelope>\r\n");

            wout.flush();
            wout.close();


            //BufferedWriter fout = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("/tmp/testXMLResponse.xml"));
            InputStream in = connection.getInputStream();
            createFile(in,"/tmp/testXMLResponse.xml");
     }
     catch (IOException e) {
         System.err.println(e);
     }
     }

     public static void createFile(InputStream io,String fileName) throws IOException {
         FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(fileName);
         byte[] buf = new byte[256];
         int read = 0;
         while ((read = io.read(buf)) != -1){
             fout.write(buf,read);
         }
     }

Solution

The problem with your code is that the authentication element is missing from the soap header Looking at WSDL, it should always exist:

<wsdl:operation name="CheckIfAuthorized">
    <soap:operation soapAction="http://www.cmicdataservices.com/CheckIfAuthorized" style="document"/>
    <wsdl:input>
        <soap:body use="literal"/>
        <soap:header message="tns:CheckIfAuthorizedAuthentication" part="Authentication" use="literal"/>
    </wsdl:input>
    <wsdl:output>
        <soap:body use="literal"/>
    </wsdl:output>
</wsdl:operation>

When there is no authentication element in the checkifauthorized request, the server will fail due to an exception due to incorrect XML The following is a sample client in Python to demonstrate the idea of solving the problem. I don't think it's a problem to convert it to Java

from suds.client import Client

client = Client("http://www.cmicdataservices.com/datacenter/service.asmx?wsdl")
auth = client.factory.create('Authentication')
auth.UserName = "username"
auth.Password = "password"
client.set_options(soapheaders=auth)
client.service.CheckIfAuthorized()
