Chapter 6. Using SOAP 1.1 Messages
Abstract
Apache CXF provides a tool to generate a SOAP 1.1 binding which does not use any SOAP headers. However, you can add SOAP headers to your binding using any text or XML editor.
6.1. Adding a SOAP 1.1 Binding
Using wsdl2soap
To generate a SOAP 1.1 binding using wsdl2soap use the following command: wsdl2soap-iport-type-name-bbinding-name-doutput-directory-ooutput-file-nsoap-body-namespace-style (document/rpc)-use (literal/encoded)-v-verbose-quietwsdlurl
To use wsdl2soap you will need to download the Apache CXF distribution.
The command has the following options:
| Option | Interpretation |
|---|---|
|
|
Specifies the |
| wsdlurl |
The path and name of the WSDL file containing the |
The tool has the following optional arguments:
| Option | Interpretation |
|---|---|
|
| Specifies the name of the generated SOAP binding. |
|
| Specifies the directory to place the generated WSDL file. |
|
| Specifies the name of the generated WSDL file. |
|
| Specifies the SOAP body namespace when the style is RPC. |
|
| Specifies the encoding style (document or RPC) to use in the SOAP binding. The default is document. |
|
| Specifies the binding use (encoded or literal) to use in the SOAP binding. The default is literal. |
|
| Displays the version number for the tool. |
|
| Displays comments during the code generation process. |
|
| Suppresses comments during the code generation process. |
The -iport-type-name and wsdlurl arguments are required. If the -style rpc argument is specified, the -nsoap-body-namspace argument is also required. All other arguments are optional and may be listed in any order.
wsdl2soap does not support the generation of document/encoded SOAP bindings.
Example
If your system has an interface that takes orders and offers a single operation to process the orders it is defined in a WSDL fragment similar to the one shown in Example 6.1, “Ordering System Interface”.
Example 6.1. Ordering System Interface
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<definitions name="widgetOrderForm.wsdl"
targetNamespace="http://widgetVendor.com/widgetOrderForm"
xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
xmlns:tns="http://widgetVendor.com/widgetOrderForm"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsd1="http://widgetVendor.com/types/widgetTypes"
xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<message name="widgetOrder">
<part name="numOrdered" type="xsd:int"/>
</message>
<message name="widgetOrderBill">
<part name="price" type="xsd:float"/>
</message>
<message name="badSize">
<part name="numInventory" type="xsd:int"/>
</message>
<portType name="orderWidgets">
<operation name="placeWidgetOrder">
<input message="tns:widgetOrder" name="order"/>
<output message="tns:widgetOrderBill" name="bill"/>
<fault message="tns:badSize" name="sizeFault"/>
</operation>
</portType>
...
</definitions>
The SOAP binding generated for orderWidgets is shown in Example 6.2, “SOAP 1.1 Binding for orderWidgets”.
Example 6.2. SOAP 1.1 Binding for orderWidgets
<binding name="orderWidgetsBinding" type="tns:orderWidgets">
<soap:binding style="document" transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http"/>
<operation name="placeWidgetOrder">
<soap:operation soapAction="" style="document"/>
<input name="order">
<soap:body use="literal"/>
</input>
<output name="bill">
<soap:body use="literal"/>
</output>
<fault name="sizeFault">
<soap:body use="literal"/>
</fault>
</operation>
</binding>
This binding specifies that messages are sent using the document/literal message style.
6.2. Adding SOAP Headers to a SOAP 1.1 Binding
Overview
SOAP headers are defined by adding soap:header elements to your default SOAP 1.1 binding. The soap:header element is an optional child of the input, output, and fault elements of the binding. The SOAP header becomes part of the parent message. A SOAP header is defined by specifying a message and a message part. Each SOAP header can only contain one message part, but you can insert as many SOAP headers as needed.
Syntax
The syntax for defining a SOAP header is shown in Example 6.3, “SOAP Header Syntax”. The message attribute of soap:header is the qualified name of the message from which the part being inserted into the header is taken. The part attribute is the name of the message part inserted into the SOAP header. Because SOAP headers are always document style, the WSDL message part inserted into the SOAP header must be defined using an element. Together the message and the part attributes fully describe the data to insert into the SOAP header.
Example 6.3. SOAP Header Syntax
<binding name="headwig">
<soap:binding style="document"
transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http"/>
<operation name="weave">
<soap:operation soapAction="" style="document"/>
<input name="grain">
<soap:body ... />
<soap:header message="QName" part="partName"/>
</input>
...
</binding>
As well as the mandatory message and part attributes, soap:header also supports the namespace, the use, and the encodingStyle attributes. These attributes function the same for soap:header as they do for soap:body.
Splitting messages between body and header
The message part inserted into the SOAP header can be any valid message part from the contract. It can even be a part from the parent message which is being used as the SOAP body. Because it is unlikely that you would want to send information twice in the same message, the SOAP binding provides a means for specifying the message parts that are inserted into the SOAP body.
The soap:body element has an optional attribute, parts, that takes a space delimited list of part names. When parts is defined, only the message parts listed are inserted into the SOAP body. You can then insert the remaining parts into the SOAP header.
When you define a SOAP header using parts of the parent message, Apache CXF automatically fills in the SOAP headers for you.
Example
Example 6.4, “SOAP 1.1 Binding with a SOAP Header” shows a modified version of the orderWidgets service shown in Example 6.1, “Ordering System Interface”. This version has been modified so that each order has an xsd:base64binary value placed in the SOAP header of the request and response. The SOAP header is defined as being the keyVal part from the widgetKey message. In this case you are responsible for adding the SOAP header to your application logic because it is not part of the input or output message.

</definitions>You can also modify Example 6.4, “SOAP 1.1 Binding with a SOAP Header” so that the header value is a part of the input and output messages.
