[Axis2] A couple of issues with ADB
Hi Devs,
I'm playing with the Axis2 ABD stuff and I hope to use it in
implementing the WS-Trust stuff.
I ran into a couple of issues trying to use ADB.
1.) ADB Beans doesn't seem to properly set unqualified attributes
2.) ADB Beans cannot serialize qualified simple (containing a text
value) child elements.
Explanation:
Please have a look at this piece of code [1]. This produced the
following output:
<wst:RequestSecurityToken
xmlns:wst="http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust"
wst:Context="test"><TokenType>test</TokenType></wst:RequestSecurityToken>
Here comes the problems :-)
First I want to make the wst:Context attribute unqualified. Simply
remove the 'wst' prefix. Therefore I tried changing line number 27 as
follows :
attributes[0] = new String("Context");
But this produced the following output which is missing the 'Context' attribute:
<wst:RequestSecurityToken
xmlns:wst="http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust"><TokenType>test</TokenType></wst:RequestSecurityToken>
Q1: Is this behaviour correct? Or am I doing somethign wrong?
When I tried changing line 27 to:
attributes[0] = new QName("Context");
It produced:
<wst:RequestSecurityToken
xmlns:wst="http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust" xmlns=""
Context="test"><TokenType
xmlns="">test</TokenType></wst:RequestSecurityToken>
but this has xmlns="", which I think should not be there.
Then I wanted to make the 'TokenType' element a qualified element
bound to 'http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust' namespace.
Since this is a simple element with only a child text node, I changed
line 22 to
properties.add(new
QName("http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust", "TokenType",
"wst"));
It produced:
<wst:RequestSecurityToken
xmlns:wst="http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust" xmlns=""
Context="test"><wst:TokenType><bytes
xmlns=""></bytes></wst:TokenType></wst:RequestSecurityToken>
But here the value of the wst:TokenType element is missing :-( Instead
we have '<bytes xmlns=""></bytes>'
But ... going through the ADBPullParserTest revealed that our ADB can
hanle setting OMElements... I got the required output by replacing
line 21-23 with
OMFactory fac = OMAbstractFactory.getOMFactory();
OMElement elem = fac.createOMElement("TokenType",
"http://ws.apache.org/namespaces/axis2/trust", "wst");
elem.setText("test");
ArrayList properties = new ArrayList();
properties.add(elem.getQName());
properties.add(elem);
This is quite useful but if I wanted to allow an ADBBean to accept an
unknown xml element from a user ... But for this situation, IMHO this
looks like a hack to me.
Q2: How can I correct this to produce
'<wst:TokenType>test</wst:TokenType>' WITHOUT inserting the OMElement?
Should I code another ADB Bean for the <wst:TokenType> element and if
so how can I simply set just a text value of that bean?
Thanks

Hi Chinthka,
Your commit fixed the issue with the qualified child element... it
works fine :-), thanks.
But... can u please fix the attribute issue as well.
When we want to set a simple unqualified attribute we should be simply
able to use something like:
attributes[0] = new String("Context");
attributes[1] = new String("test");
where it should produce...
<... context="test"... > </...>
BTW when we try to do
attributes[0] = new QName("Context");
attributes[1] = new String("test");
it still produces:
<.... xmlns="" Context="test" ...></...>
I think this is not quite right, maybe it should be the same as the
situation where we specify two string values as the key and the value.
Thanks,
Ruchith

Ruchith and all,
I improved the ADBPullParser to handle what you wanted. Please check my
last commit.
Please do understand that, ADBPullParser was not meant to be a generic
one. We got some limited set of requirements to implement ADB and
implemented them in ADBPullParser. This "limited" set definitely will
not support any combination, but supports most of the frequently used
stuff.
Anyway, if there is a requirement to implement a new thing, I'm happy to
help.
