[Axis2] Message structure and Attachments
Hi all,
I was looking at the how message is constructed in Axis2,
and found it to be little different from what we do in Axis 1.2. In Axis
1.2 we get the SOAP Envelope through: MessageFactory - > SoapMessage - >
SOAPPart (and Attachment Part) -> SOAPEnvelope. This is according to
SAAJ 1.2 specs. But in Axis2 we directly get SOAPEnvelope from the
factory class.
I could not find any concept of SoapMessage and SOAPPart.
And, though I have glanced at the discussion on MTOM and the
implementation code, I could not understand how AttachmentPart forms
part of a SOAPMessage and how SOAPEnvelope and AttachmentPart are
linked. Has it been deliberately decided not to follow the message
structure in Axis 1.2 (and SAAJ)? If yes, then what is the kind of
message structure that has been planned?
I have just started looking at the Axis2 code, so tell me if
there is any misunderstanding on my part.

Hi,
Well yes there has been some skipping of the specs. SOAPMessage was
deliberately skipped and you wouldn't find the SOAPpart anywhere
either.
Interestingly there is no concept of an OM document (which if existed
should match with the SOAPMessage in my sense). What you will get is
the envelope directly from the builder.
The catch here is that this framework is built not with SAAJ (or any
of the other specs for that matter) in mind. It is supposed to be a
lightweight framework and if SAAJ is needed theoretically it is
possible to layer it upon this framework. An infoset model for the
Binary content has already being suggested (OMBlob) but it is again
not SAAJ specific.
Have a look at the mail I sent to the dev list for Venkats question.
I've included a description of the Axis 2 view :)
BTW we appreciate all of you guys going over the code. More brains the
better it is :)
