1. Consume Soap Web Service Using JAX-WS In Liferay Custom Portlet Plugin

What is JAX-WS?

The Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) is a Java programming language API for creating web services. JAX-WS is one of the Java XML programming APIs. It is part of the Java EE platform.
JAX-WS architecture is an easier-to-understand architecture for web services development.

 We will create a client which communicates with the web service and displays the result.
STEPS:

Step 1: Create one portlet plugin project, name: SoapClientUsing_JAX-WS
After appending -portlet suffice, project full name in this example will be
SoapClientUsing_JAX-WS-portlet .
Now create one portlet inside this created project, name: Soapclient in this example.

Step 2: Now we will import wsdl in our project for generating artifacts for consuming service.
JAX-WS provides a tool called  'wsimport' for generating artifacts required for consuming web services. 'wsimport' takes a wsdl file as input.

I)Take project folder path , as shown below
In this example project folder path:
F:\WebSevice\liferay-plugins-sdk-6.2.0\portlets\SoapClientUsing_JAX-WS-portlet

II)Open command and go to above project path, as shown below

III)Now issue below wsimport command to generate required service artifacts.

wsimport -s docroot/WEB-INF/src -d docroot/WEB-INF/classes http://webservices.oorsprong.org/websamples.countryinfo/CountryInfoService.wso?WSDL


-s:docroot/WEB-INF/src (Path of generated .java files)
-d:docroot/WEB-INF/classes  (Path of generated .class files)
wsdl:http://webservices.oorsprong.org/websamples.countryinfo/CountryInfoService.wso?WSDL

Step 3: Paste below java code in portlet controller: Soapclient.java

package com.test;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;

import javax.portlet.ActionRequest;
import javax.portlet.ActionResponse;
import javax.portlet.PortletException;
import javax.portlet.RenderRequest;
import javax.portlet.RenderResponse;

import org.oorsprong.websamples.ArrayOftCountryCodeAndName;
import org.oorsprong.websamples.CountryInfoService;
import org.oorsprong.websamples.CountryInfoServiceSoapType;
import org.oorsprong.websamples.TCountryCodeAndName;
import org.oorsprong.websamples.TCountryInfo;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.ParamUtil;
import com.liferay.util.bridges.mvc.MVCPortlet;

/**
 * Portlet implementation class Soapclient
 */
public class Soapclient extends MVCPortlet {

@Override
public void render(RenderRequest request, RenderResponse response)
throws PortletException, IOException {


CountryInfoService  countryinfo = new CountryInfoService();
        CountryInfoServiceSoapType stub = countryinfo.getCountryInfoServiceSoap();
   
ArrayOftCountryCodeAndName countriesArrayList = stub.listOfCountryNamesByCode();
List<TCountryCodeAndName>   countriesList =  countriesArrayList.getTCountryCodeAndName();

request.setAttribute("COUNTRIES_CODE_LIST", countriesList);

super.render(request, response);
}



public void getCountryInfoByCountryCode(ActionRequest actionRequest,
ActionResponse actionResponse) throws IOException, PortletException {

System.out.println("inside getCountryInfoByCountryCode method...");

String countryCode = ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "countryCode");

CountryInfoService  countryinfo = new CountryInfoService();
        CountryInfoServiceSoapType stub = countryinfo.getCountryInfoServiceSoap();
   
TCountryInfo countryFullInfo =  stub.fullCountryInfo(countryCode);
actionRequest.setAttribute("COUNTRY_FULL_INFO",countryFullInfo);
actionResponse.setRenderParameter("jspPage", "/html/soapwsclient/countryFullInfo.jsp");
}

}

Step 4: Paste below respective jsp's code:view.jsp, CountryFullInfo.jsp

view.jsp

<%

PortletURL getcountryInfoByCode = renderResponse.createActionURL();

getcountryInfoByCode.setParameter(actionRequest.ACTION_NAME, "getCountryInfoByCountryCode");

List<TCountryCodeAndName> countriesCodeList = Validator.isNotNull((List<TCountryCodeAndName>)request.getAttribute("COUNTRIES_CODE_LIST")) ? (List<TCountryCodeAndName>)request.getAttribute("COUNTRIES_CODE_LIST") : null;    

%>

<form method="post" action="<%=getcountryInfoByCode.toString()%>">

      }

    %>

   </select>

   <input type="submit" value="GetCountryDetail"/>

</form>

TCountryInfo countryFullInfo = Validator.isNotNull((TCountryInfo)request.getAttribute("COUNTRY_FULL_INFO")) ? (TCountryInfo)request.getAttribute("COUNTRY_FULL_INFO") : null;

ArrayOftLanguage arrayOfLanguages = Validator.isNotNull(countryFullInfo) ?  countryFullInfo.getLanguages() : null;

List<TLanguage>  tLanguage = Validator.isNotNull(arrayOfLanguages) ? arrayOfLanguages.getTLanguage() : null;

%>

OUTPUT: Deploy portlet and add on portal page.
