TcpMon in Eclipse

[Suzi Cooper]

Hi guys,

I am writing a client to call a web-service. I have installed TcpMon as a utility in eclipse to monitor the request/response but i am a little confused in configuring it.

Web service client code is :

Service service = new Service();
Call call = (Call)service.createCall();

String endpoint = "http://flexsimple.garfield/ws/FlexSimpleCache.asmx";
 
call.setTargetEndpointAddress(new java.net.URL (endpoint));
call.setOperationName(new QName("http://tempuri.org/", "ValidateUser")); 
call.setProperty( javax.xml.rpc.Call.SOAPACTION_USE_PROPERTY, new Boolean(true));
call.setProperty( javax.xml.rpc.Call.SOAPACTION_URI_PROPERTY, "http://tempuri.org/ValidateUser"); // set soap action

call.addParameter("GpassID", XMLType.XSD_INT, ParameterMode.IN);
call.setReturnType(XMLType.SOAP_STRING);
 
int param = 5383;

// invoke web service

try
{
  String returnString =  (String)call.invoke(new Object [] {param});
   System.out.println("Got result : " + returnString);
}
catch(Exception e){System.out.println("Error in Response: " +e);}

THe web-service is invoked through a jsp of my web-app http://localhost:8080/myapp/test.xhtml)

In Eclipse i do the following steps:
1) Windows --> view--> other --> TCP monitor
2) In my TCP monitor ,i add the following param :
Listen Port# = 9090
Target Hostname : flexsimple.garfield
Target Port# : 80

When i invoke the web service, i don't get any message in tcpmon.

What am i missing here?Do i need to change th client side code?

Thanks for the help.

Listen Port# = 9090
Target Hostname : flexsimple.garfield
Target Port# : 80

Add 9090 to the URL of your calling service. This is what TCPMON is configured to listen to, based on your configuration.

Thanks...got that sorted.

Another question though....for my request

   <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
      <soapenv:Body>
         <ValidateUser xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
            <GpassID xsi:type="xsd:int" xmlns="">5383</GpassID>
         </ValidateUser>
      </soapenv:Body>
   </soapenv:Envelope>

I get an error response : Sorry, the user ID you supplied was not recognised

However, if i remove parameter type arguments (xsi:type="xsd:int" xmlns=""), I get a valid response

  <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
      <soapenv:Body>
         <ValidateUser xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
            <GpassID>5383</GpassID>
         </ValidateUser>
      </soapenv:Body>
   </soapenv:Envelope>

If i do not set 'addParameter' and 'returnType', i get the same error message. The request looks like this:

  <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
      <soapenv:Body>
         <ValidateUser xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
            <arg0 xsi:type="xsd:int">5383</arg0>
         </ValidateUser>
      </soapenv:Body>
   </soapenv:Envelope>

The wsdl doc is as follows:
.......
<s:element name="ValidateUser">
<s:complexType>
<s:sequence><s:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" name="GpassID" type="s:int" />
</s:sequence>
</s:complexType>
</s:element>
<s:element name="ValidateUserResponse">
<s:complexType>
<s:sequence>
<s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="ValidateUserResult" type="s:string" />
</s:sequence>
</s:complexType>
</s:element>

..............
<wsdl peration name="ValidateUser">
<soap peration soapAction="http://tempuri.org/ValidateUser" style="document" />
<wsdl:input><soap:body use="literal" /> </wsdl:input>
<wsdl utput><soap:body use="literal" /> </wsdl utput>
</wsdl peration>

.......

How do i fix my request object?
