客户端的调用
Web services提供的服务多种多样,有的可以马上获得结果,有的要消耗很长的时间。所以,如果我们需要多种调用方式来对付不同的情况。
大多数的Web services都提供阻塞(Blocking)和非阻塞(Non-Blocking)两种APIs. 这两个概念以前应该学过,简单说一下。
Blocking API - 调用端要等被调用的函数运行完毕才继续往下走。
Non-Bloking API - 调用端运行完调用函数以后就直接往下走了,调用端和被调用端是异步执行的。返回值是用回调函数来实现的。
这种异步叫做API层异步(API Level Asynchrony)。他们只用到一个连接来发送和接收消息,而且,如果是那种需要运行很长时间的函数,还会碰到Time Out 错误,如果用两个连接分别处理发送和接收消息,调用的时间就可以缩短,也可以解决Time Out 问题。用两个连接来分别处理发送和接收消息,叫做传输层异步(Transport Level Asynchrony)。

理论真无聊,还是来看实例吧。
打开 Eclipse, 创建一个新Project, 新建一个叫userguide.clients的包, 把"samples\userguide\src\userguide\clients" 下面的文件都copy到那个包下面, 把AXIS2的lib下面的jar都加到ilbrary里面去(应该不用全加,懒一点就全加了吧.) 发现了关于echo的调用的方式, 居然有五个:
EchoBlockingClient
EchoBlockingDualClient
EchoBlockingWsaBasedClient
EchoNonBlockingClient
EchoNonBlockingDualClient
一个一个看吧.
EchoBlockingClient.java
public class EchoBlockingClient {
private static EndpointReference targetEPR = new EndpointReference("http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/MyService");
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
OMElement payload = ClientUtil.getEchoOMElement();
Call call = new Call();
call.setTo(targetEPR);
call.setTransportInfo(Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
false);
//Blocking invocation
OMElement result = call.invokeBlocking("echo",
payload);
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
result.serializeWithCache(XMLOutputFactory.newInstance()
.createXMLStreamWriter(writer));
writer.flush();
System.out.println(writer.toString());
} catch (AxisFault axisFault) {
axisFault.printStackTrace();
} catch (XMLStreamException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
和一代几乎一样, 弄一个EndpointReference, 再弄一个call, 其他不一样,但是也很简单, 弄一个OMElement作为参数, 返回也是一个OMElement. 可惜运行居然有错.
再来看双通道的版本
EchoBlockingDualClient.java
public class EchoBlockingDualClient {
private static EndpointReference targetEPR = new EndpointReference("http://127.0.0.1:8080/axis2/services/MyService");
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
OMElement payload = ClientUtil.getEchoOMElement();
Call call = new Call();
call.setTo(targetEPR);
call.engageModule(new QName(Constants.MODULE_ADDRESSING));
call.setTransportInfo(Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
true);
//Blocking Invocation
OMElement result = call.invokeBlocking("echo",
payload);
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
result.serializeWithCache(XMLOutputFactory.newInstance()
.createXMLStreamWriter(writer));
writer.flush();
System.out.println(writer.toString());
//Need to close the Client Side Listener.
call.close();
} catch (AxisFault axisFault) {
axisFault.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
加了一句engageModule, 这句话好像没什么用,我删掉这句话也能运行的, 然后setTransportInfo最后一个参数改成了true. 关于setTransportInfo的三个参数, 第一个是发送的Transport, 第二个是接收的Transport, 第三个是"是否双通道", 支持的搭配形式如下:
http, http, true
http, http, false
http,smtp,true
smtp,http,true
smtp,smtp,true
看下一个吧,EchoNonBlockingClient,这个是单通道的非阻塞模式:
public class EchoNonBlockingClient {
private static EndpointReference targetEPR = new EndpointReference("http://127.0.0.1:8080/axis2/services/MyService");
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
OMElement payload = ClientUtil.getEchoOMElement();
Call call = new Call();
call.setTo(targetEPR);
call.setTransportInfo(Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
false);
//Callback to handle the response
Callback callback = new Callback() {
public void onComplete(AsyncResult result) {
try {
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
result.getResponseEnvelope().serializeWithCache(XMLOutputFactory.newInstance()
.createXMLStreamWriter(writer));
writer.flush();
System.out.println(writer.toString());
} catch (XMLStreamException e) {
reportError(e);
}
}
public void reportError(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
};
//Non-Blocking Invocation
call.invokeNonBlocking("echo", payload, callback);
//Wait till the callback receives the response.
while (!callback.isComplete()) {
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
} catch (AxisFault axisFault) {
axisFault.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
不同的地方,只是调用的方法从invokeBlocking变成了invokeNonBlocking,然后写了一个简单的匿名Callback类作为回调函数。关于这个Callback类,它是一个抽象类,其中有两个方法:onComplete和reportError,都是client端必须实现的,他还有一个Field,就是complete,可以用来设置和查询调用是否完成。可惜也不能运行,和上面的错误一样,是在createSOAPMessage的时候报null错误。
看下一个EchoNonBlockingDualClient,非阻塞的双通道:
public class EchoNonBlockingDualClient {
private static EndpointReference targetEPR = new EndpointReference("http://127.0.0.1:8080/axis2/services/MyService");
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
OMElement payload = ClientUtil.getEchoOMElement();
Call call = new Call();
call.setTo(targetEPR);
//The boolean flag informs the axis2 engine to use two separate transport connection
//to retrieve the response.
call.engageModule(new QName(Constants.MODULE_ADDRESSING));
call.setTransportInfo(Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP,
true);
//Callback to handle the response
Callback callback = new Callback() {
public void onComplete(AsyncResult result) {
try {
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
result.getResponseEnvelope().serializeWithCache(XMLOutputFactory.newInstance()
.createXMLStreamWriter(writer));
writer.flush();
System.out.println(writer.toString());
} catch (XMLStreamException e) {
reportError(e);
}
}
public void reportError(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
};
//Non-Blocking Invocation
call.invokeNonBlocking("echo", payload, callback);
//Wait till the callback receives the response.
while (!callback.isComplete()) {
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
//Need to close the Client Side Listener.
call.close();
} catch (AxisFault axisFault) {
axisFault.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
双通道和单通道基本没什么不同,只是双通道的时候,它总是要设定engageModule,然后多了一个call.close();,自己关闭监听器(close the Client Side Listener)。
以上这些都是需要返回值的调用,如果不需要返回值呢,看看PingClient
public class PingClient {
private static EndpointReference targetEPR = new EndpointReference("http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/MyService");
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
OMElement payload = ClientUtil.getPingOMElement();
MessageSender msgSender = new MessageSender();
msgSender.setTo(targetEPR);
msgSender.setSenderTransport(Constants.TRANSPORT_HTTP);
msgSender.send("ping", payload);
} catch (AxisFault axisFault) {
axisFault.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
呵呵,这也忒简单了一点,就一个msgSender.send就搞定了。
Client端的调用组合基本看完了,但是还有一个EchoBlockingWsaBasedClient,这是什么东啊? 还有那个engageModule是用来做啥的?先不管它们吧。
看看那个我认为最有用的工具:WSDL2Java,在bin目录下面有WSDL2Java.bat和WSDL2Java.sh,这个工具是用来干啥的呢,和一代一样,是用来生成stub的,就是说别人发布了Web Service以后,就会有一个wsdl文件,这个工具可以根据wsdl生成几个class,把底层的调用都wrap起来了,然后你用的时候就像普通函数调用一样。
演练一下吧,从命令行走到samples\wsdl目录下面,看到Axis2SampleDocLit.wsdl,执行..\..\bin\WSDL2Java.bat -uri Axis2SampleDocLit.wsdl,目录下面一下子多了两个目录,不管schemaorg_apache_xmlbeans,把codegen目录copy到Eclipse的一个Project里面去,哇,好多class啊,不看别的,就看Axis2SampleDocLitPortTypeStub,里面有三个函数是Web Service提供的:echoStringArray,echoStruct和echoString,哈哈,什么Call类了,MessageContext了,都在里面了,使用起来嘛,就像这样:
try {
Axis2SampleDocLitPortTypeStub stub= new Axis2SampleDocLitPortTypeStub(null, "http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/Axis2SampleDocLitPortType");
//Create the request document to be sent.
EchoStringParamDocument reqDoc= EchoStringParamDocument.Factory.newInstance();
reqDoc.setEchoStringParam("Axis2 Echo");
//invokes the web service.
EchoStringReturnDocument resDoc=stub.echoString(reqDoc);
System.out.println(resDoc.getEchoStringReturn());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
就是创一个stub,再创一个参数类(EchoStringParamDocument),然后调用函数传参数,和普通的函数调用没有区别。如果你在命令行输入WSDL2Java.bat,会看到它的帮助提示如下:
