Web Services Using SAAJ

We have ServiceMix includes a component for invoking web services using SAAJ and Axis via JBI. Here is an example of it in use., as an InOut message exchange. The InOut message exchange pattern (MEP) is a request response pattern where the output message is replaced by a fault, if the message is not successful. For more details on the InOut MEP please see JSR 208. The following example invokes a web service to ask for a stock price:

{snippet:id=saaj|lang=xml|url=http://cvs.servicemix.codehaus.org/*checkout*/servicemix/baseservicemix/smx3/trunk/common/servicemix-components/src/test/resources/org/apache/servicemix/components/saaj/example.xml}

To invoke this function, pass the following request body:

{snippet:id=request|lang=xml|url=servicemix/smx3/trunk/common/servicemix-components/src/test/resources/org/apache/servicemix/components/saaj/request.xml}

Below is the expected response:

{snippet:id=example|lang=xml|url=servicemix/smx3/trunk/common/servicemix-components/src/test/resources/org/apache/servicemix/components/saaj/exampleresponse.xml?rev=HEAD}}
