web service document-literal

[cesar]

hello,

i have a web application with Spring that in the manager create a xml and sign with enveloped signature, and send it via https with java.net.URL.

i have to expose as a web service, document-literal style, put the xml that cretate the manager ant put in the soap body directly.

how can i do this??? i have find examples that use web service binding object to xml, but i think that i can't use it because i have the signed xml that i want to put in the soap body, not an object.

thanks in advance,
César.

Cesar,

What is the form of the digital signature of the XML?
If you use, for instance, XML-Signature then the signature is also XML, so you can define a XML Schema that containes both your original XML and the its signature and use it in your WSDL.

Maybe you can also follow a different approach. Use WS-Security to sign at SOAP envelop level.

hello routis,

yes, i use XML-Signature (apache xmldsig) and the signature is also XML, like this:

<message_signed xmlns="http://.../messages">
<message Id="12345">
...
</message>
<ds:Signature xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#">
...
<ds:Reference URI="#12345">
...
</ds:Signature>
</message_signed>

i could put the xsd that define this xml in the wsdl,
i have this xml as a String, how put the xml in the soap body???

i have seen spring-ws and axis2, but they use data binding with wsdl2java, and generate classes that mapping the xsd of wsdl... but i have the signed xml yet. how put in the soap body???

yes, ws-security... i could have to change too things.

thanks,
César.

Although I don't understand why you have the XML only as String, in this case you can define (in the WSDL) the <xsd:any> as payload or <xsd:string>
You might find this link or better this useful.

If you adopt the use of <xsd:string> for example, then spring-ws is straightforward
