soap over jms to webservice

[abdullah_shaikh]

Hi All,


I am using message-driven-channel-adapter with channel to consume the messages on ActiveMQ queue, but what I want is that when a messages arrives on the queue it should invoke a webservice passing that message to the webservice.

I guess this can be achieved by using SimpleWebServiceOutboundGateway ?

I am a newbie to Spring Integration, any help or link will be appreciated.

Thanks

This should do the trick:

<jms:message-driven-channel-adapter ... channel="x"/>

<ws:outbound-gateway request-channel="x"
                     uri="http://someWebService"
                     reply-channel="y"/>

Thanks for the reply, Mark.


But I have some queries regarding this :

input-channel - this is the channel where the messages comes from the queue.
uri - points to webservice

output-channel - ?

what does the output-channel does ?. I believe the input-channel provides the messages that needs to be sent to the webservice or do I need to configure the output-channel for webservice ?.

Bit confused

Thanks

The 'output-channel' is where the Web Service response will be sent. (note: edited the example to correctly show that the gateway uses 'request-channel' and 'reply-channel').

[Mark Fisher]

Sorry, for the gateway (since input/output becomes confusing when referring to a service to be invoked), it is actually 'request-channel' for the Web Service request and 'reply-channel' for the Web Service response:

<ws:outbound-gateway uri="http://someWebService"
                     request-channel="x"
                     reply-channel="y"/>

(editing the example above).

For more examples... without my typos and a more thorough explanation, please refer to the "Web Services" chapter of the Spring Integration reference manual:

Thanks for all the help, just 1 more question.

Instead of using message-driven-channel-adapter and then forwarding the message to the web service using outbound-gateway, can I create a web service which directly listens to the queue ?

I guess I need to use WebServiceMessageListener for this ?

I know this question is related to Spring Web Services , I have posted this on web services forum but haven't got any reply yet.

Thanks

Yes, if you are simply trying to use JMS as a transport for invoking a Web Service, then you should consider using Spring Web Services' support for that. This section of the SWS reference manual should help:
