This section describes how WS-Addressing can be used to provide a stateful service endpoint.
WS-Addressing is defined by a combination of the following specifications from the W3C Recommendation. The WS-Addressing API is standardized by JSR-224 - Java API for XML-Based Web Services (JAX-WS)
Note
The following information should not be used in conjuction with JBoss Web Services CXF Stack.
The following endpoint implementation has a set of operation for a typical stateful shopping chart application.
@WebService(name = "StatefulEndpoint", targetNamespace = "http://org.jboss.ws/samples/wsaddressing", serviceName = "TestService")
@Addressing(enabled=true, required=true)
@SOAPBinding(style = SOAPBinding.Style.RPC)
public class StatefulEndpointImpl implements StatefulEndpoint, ServiceLifecycle
{
@WebMethod
public void addItem(String item)
{ ... }
@WebMethod
public void checkout()
{ ... }
@WebMethod
public String getItems()
{ ... }
}
It uses the JAX-WS 2.1 defined
javax.xml.ws.soap.Addressing annotation to enable the server side addressing handler.
The client code uses
javax.xml.ws.soap.AddressingFeature feature from JAX-WS 2.1 API to enable the WS-Addressing.
Service service = Service.create(wsdlURL, serviceName); port1 = (StatefulEndpoint)service.getPort(StatefulEndpoint.class, new AddressingFeature());
A client connecting to the stateful endpoint
public class AddressingStatefulTestCase extends JBossWSTest
{
...
public void testAddItem() throws Exception
{
port1.addItem("Ice Cream");
port1.addItem("Ferrari");
port2.addItem("Mars Bar");
port2.addItem("Porsche");
}
public void testGetItems() throws Exception
{
String items1 = port1.getItems();
assertEquals("[Ice Cream, Ferrari]", items1);
String items2 = port2.getItems();
assertEquals("[Mars Bar, Porsche]", items2);
}
}
SOAP message exchange
Below you see the SOAP messages that are beeing exchanged.
