Java – use org. Org apache. HTTP sends an HTTP post request with a soap operation

I'm using org apache. The HTTP API writes a hard - coded HTTP post request using soap operations

import java.net.URI;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.client.HttpClient;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost;
import org.apache.http.entity.StringEntity;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.RequestWrapper;
import org.apache.http.protocol.HTTP;

public class HTTPRequest
{
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    public HTTPRequest()
    {
        try {
            HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            String body="DataDataData";
            String bodyLength=new Integer(body.length()).toString();
            System.out.println(bodyLength);
//          StringEntity stringEntity=new StringEntity(body);

            URI uri=new URI("SOMEURL?Param1=1234&Param2=abcd");
            HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(uri);
            httpPost.addHeader("Test","Test_Value");

//          httpPost.setEntity(stringEntity);

            StringEntity entity = new StringEntity(body,"text/xml",HTTP.DEFAULT_CONTENT_CHARSET);
            httpPost.setEntity(entity);

            RequestWrapper requestWrapper=new RequestWrapper(httpPost);
            requestWrapper.setMethod("POST");
            requestWrapper.setHeader("LuckyNumber","77");
            requestWrapper.removeHeaders("Host");
            requestWrapper.setHeader("Host","GOD_IS_A_DJ");
//          requestWrapper.setHeader("Content-Length",bodyLength);          
            HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(requestWrapper);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Solution

Soapaction must be passed as an HTTP header parameter - when used, it is not part of HTTP body / payload

Here is an example of Apache httpclient: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpcomponents/oac.hc3x/trunk/src/examples/PostSOAP.java
