Using SAAJ 1.3 and XMLBeans 1.0.3 for a web service client

["Cordes, Hans-Dieter" <hd...@emea.att.com>]

Hello,

I use SAAJ 1.3 and XMLBeans 1.0.3 to develop a web service client. I use SAAJ for the SOAP part and XMLBeans for the data payload part. My problem is that I cannot figure out how to get the child element from the SOAP-Body element that corresponds to my root XMLBeans element. The work-around I use for now is that I iterate through all SOAP-Body childs until an XMLBeans parse method for a org.w3c.dom.Node object does not throw an exception. I have tried to use a javax.xml.soap.Name object that contains the "localname" of my XMLBeans root element, but that creates an empty iterator. I cannot use the javax.xml.soap.Name object that in addition contains the namespace prefix and namespace URL, as the prefix may change.

My work-around works, but it seems to be very, very ugly. Any ideas here?

I have attached the corresponding JAVA code and some logging output so you can see the XML I try to process.

Thanks in advance,
	Hans-Dieter Cordes
