SOAP: what is appropriate for the header and the body
Hi, I was trying to use the latest java ee web service code generators that take a WSDL and generate the java code necessary to send/recieve a SOAP message. I am running them against WSDLs that were generated from Microsoft code (I really don't know what they used (NET, ASP ??) and I don't have access to the code). In the past (maybe 3 years ago), I couldn't get the java code generators to generate something that could process the necessary parts of the message. I still can't. So, I used saaj and still need to use saaj. I don't get the disconnect. The MS code generates a WSDL that puts most of the required information in the header with a few necessary things in the body. Java seems to assume things go in the body. What is appropriate to put in a SOAP header and what is appropriate for the body? I am not saying one or the other is correct... Just curious Don't know if this makes sense to anybody... I probably haven't explained things well. Just getting back into SOAP after not touching it for more than a few years... (ufff... just to add insult to injury: It's all communicating on an internal network... using SSL...) best, -Rob
