In this example we see a basic JAX-WS @WebService component use a handler chain to alter incoming and outgoing SOAP messages. SOAP Handlers are similar to Servlet Filters or EJB/CDI Interceptors.
At high level, the steps involved are:
javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPHandler<handler-chain>@WebService component via @HandlerChainFirst we'll start with our plain @WebService bean, called Calculator, which is annotated with @HandlerChain
@Singleton
@WebService(
portName = "CalculatorPort",
serviceName = "CalculatorService",
targetNamespace = "http://superbiz.org/wsdl",
endpointInterface = "org.superbiz.calculator.wsh.CalculatorWs")
@HandlerChain(file = "handlers.xml")
public class Calculator implements CalculatorWs {
public int sum(int add1, int add2) {
return add1 + add2;
}
public int multiply(int mul1, int mul2) {
return mul1 * mul2;
}
}
Here we see @HandlerChain pointing to a file called handlers.xml. This file could be called anything, but it must be in the same jar and java package as our Calculator component.
Our Calculator service is in the package org.superbiz.calculator.wsh, which means our handler chain xml file must be at org/superbiz/calculator/wsh/handlers.xml in our application's classpath or the file will not be found and no handlers will be used.
In maven we achieve this by putting our handlers.xml in src/main/resources like so:
src/main/resources/org/superbiz/calculator/wsh/handlers.xmlWith this file we declare and order our handler chain.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<handler-chains xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee">
<handler-chain>
<handler>
<handler-name>org.superbiz.calculator.wsh.Inflate</handler-name>
<handler-class>org.superbiz.calculator.wsh.Inflate</handler-class>
</handler>
<handler>
<handler-name>org.superbiz.calculator.wsh.Increment</handler-name>
<handler-class>org.superbiz.calculator.wsh.Increment</handler-class>
</handler>
</handler-chain>
</handler-chains>
The order as you might suspect is:
InflateIncrementOur Inflate handler has the job of monitoring responses to the sum and multiply operations and making them 1000 times better. Manipulation of the message is done by walking the SOAPBody and editing the nodes. The handleMessage method is invoked for both requests and responses, so it is important to check the SOAPBody before attempting to naviage the nodes.
import org.w3c.dom.Node;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPBody;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPException;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPMessage;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPHandler;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPMessageContext;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Set;
public class Inflate implements SOAPHandler<SOAPMessageContext> {
public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext mc) {
try {
final SOAPMessage message = mc.getMessage();
final SOAPBody body = message.getSOAPBody();
final String localName = body.getFirstChild().getLocalName();
if ("sumResponse".equals(localName) || "multiplyResponse".equals(localName)) {
final Node responseNode = body.getFirstChild();
final Node returnNode = responseNode.getFirstChild();
final Node intNode = returnNode.getFirstChild();
final int value = new Integer(intNode.getNodeValue());
intNode.setNodeValue(Integer.toString(value * 1000));
}
return true;
} catch (SOAPException e) {
return false;
}
}
public Set<QName> getHeaders() {
return Collections.emptySet();
}
public void close(MessageContext mc) {
}
public boolean handleFault(SOAPMessageContext mc) {
return true;
}
}
The Increment handler is identical in code and therefore not shown. Instead of multiplying by 1000, it simply adds 1.
We use the JAX-WS API to create a Java client for our Calculator web service and use it to invoke both the sum and multiply operations. Note the clever use of math to assert both the existence and order of our handlers. If Inflate and Increment were reversed, the responses would be 11000 and 13000 respectively.
public class CalculatorTest {
@BeforeClass
public static void setUp() throws Exception {
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.setProperty("openejb.embedded.remotable", "true");
EJBContainer.createEJBContainer(properties);
}
@Test
public void testCalculatorViaWsInterface() throws Exception {
final Service calculatorService = Service.create(
new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4204/Calculator?wsdl"),
new QName("http://superbiz.org/wsdl", "CalculatorService"));
assertNotNull(calculatorService);
final CalculatorWs calculator = calculatorService.getPort(CalculatorWs.class);
// we expect our answers to come back 1000 times better, plus one!
assertEquals(10001, calculator.sum(4, 6));
assertEquals(12001, calculator.multiply(3, 4));
}
}
Simply run mvn clean install and you should see output similar to the following:
