Fuse ESB Enterprise - Using the JMS Binding Component

Provider Marshalers

Overview

Providers use an implementation of the org.apache.servicemix.jms.endpoints.JmsProviderMarshaler interface to convert normalized messages into JMS messages. The marshaler also converts the incoming reply from a JMS message into a normalized message. The JMS binding component comes with two provider marshaler implementations:

DefaultProviderMarshaler

The DefaultProviderMarshaler class provides the marshaler used by generic provider endpoints.

JmsSoapProviderMarshaler

The JmsSoapProviderMarshaler class provides the marshaler used by SOAP provider endpoints.

	Note
	The default SOAP marshaler does not support the full range of SOAP messages nor does it support marshaling map based messages into JMS messages.

When the default provider marshalers do not suffice for your application, you can provide a custom implementation of the JmsProviderMarshaler interface.

Implementing the marshaler

To create a custom provider marshaler, you implement the org.apache.servicemix.jms.endpoints.JmsProviderMarshaler interface. The JmsProviderMarshaler interface, shown in Example 34, has two methods you need to implement:

Example 34. The Provider Marshaler Interface

public interface JmsProviderMarshaler
{
  Message createMessage(MessageExchange exchange, NormalizedMessage in, Session session) throws Exception;

  void populateMessage(Message message, MessageExchange exchange, NormalizedMessage normalizedMessage) throws Exception;
}

createMessage(): The createMessage() method uses information from the Fuse ESB Enterprise core to generate a JMS message. Its parameters include the message exchange, the normalized message that is received by the provider, and the active JMS session.
populateMessage(): The populateMessage() method takes a JMS message and adds it to a message exchange for use by the Fuse ESB Enterprise core.

Example 35 shows a simple provider marshaler implementation.

Example 35. Provider Marshaler Implementation

package com.widgetVendor.example;

import javax.jbi.messaging.MessageExchange;
import javax.jbi.messaging.NormalizedMessage;
import javax.jms.Message;
import javax.jms.Session;
import javax.jms.TextMessage;
import javax.xml.transform.Source;

import org.apache.servicemix.jbi.jaxp.SourceTransformer;
import org.apache.servicemix.jbi.jaxp.StringSource;
import org.apache.servicemix.jms.endpoints.JmsProviderMarshaler;

public class widgetProviderMarshaler implements JmsProviderMarshaler
{
    private SourceTransformer transformer = new SourceTransformer();
    
    public Message createMessage(MessageExchange exchange, NormalizedMessage in, Session session) throws Exception
    {
       TextMessage text = session.createTextMessage();
       text.setText(transformer.contentToString(in));
       return text;
    }

    public void populateMessage(Message message, MessageExchange exchange, NormalizedMessage normalizedMessage) throws Exception
    {
      TextMessage textMessage = (TextMessage) message;
      Source source = new StringSource(textMessage.getText());
      normalizedMessage.setContent(source);
    }
}

Configuring the provider

You configure a provider to use a custom marshaler using its marshaler attribute. The marshaler attribute's value is a reference to a bean element specifying the class of your custom marshaler implementation.

Example 36 shows configuration for a provider that uses a custom marshaler.

Example 36. Configuring a Provider to Use a Customer Marshaler

<beans xmlns:jms="http://servicemix.apache.org/jms/1.0"
       ... >
  ...
  <jms:soap-provider wsdl="classpath:widgets.wsdl"
                     destinationName="widgetQueue"
                     connectionFactory="#connectionFactory"
                     marshaler="#myProviderMarshaler" />

  <bean id="myProviderMarshaler" class="com.widgetVendor.example.widgetProviderMarshaler" />
  ...
</beans>

	Note
	You can also configure a provider to use a custom marshaler by adding a child `marshaler` element to the provider's configuration. The `marshaler` element simply wraps the `bean` element that configures the marshaler.
