Webservice and Japanese Characters
Hi
We have to create a web service which will be used to consume data which may
have japnese characters,
Is there some thing special we have to do for WSDL, do we have to define it
as UTF-16 or some thing. This web service will get data which will be
english characters and some times Japanese characters,
We need to insert this data in a DB2 table which accepts english characters,
so basically use UTF-8 for data inserted
Any suggestions

Hi Carsten,
Default encoding is what you have in your system. E.g. I am running on
Windows XP and my default encoding was something like "windows-1258" (in
regional setting mine was English - United States).....so i had to read the
iputstream in UTF-8 format because characters were coming in as UTF-8.
There are different character-sets. Java also needs to support the
character-set (character-encoding) you want to send in the right format.

Hi Chinmoy,
so what was the original encoding of the XML stream? You read the
stream with UTF-8 (I thought that the Axis Servlet also did this) and
then you re-encoded or what did you do?
Thanks for your help!

Attribute 'type' of 'element' of XML schema can refer to only primitive data types?
Posted by Kakoli Sen <ka...@cdacb.ernet.in>.
Hello all,
I am new to WSDL. Can someone tell me the difference between attributes
'type' and 'ref' of <xsd:element>. Below is a snippet from my wsdl file :
<xsd:element name="Employee">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="name" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="id" type="xsd:int"/>
<xsd:element name="join_date" type="xsd:string"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="EmployeeArray">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element type="Employee" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>.
This gives error : java.io.IOException: Type
{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/}Employee is referenced but not defined.
But when I replace type="Employee" by ref="tns:Employee", the error goes
off.
The attribute 'type' can refer to only primitive data types? But the
documentation on XML schema says otherwise.
Thanks & Regards,
Kakoli

Take a look at "javax.servlet.Filter" doc....you can mention this filter in
your web.xml like this (e.g):
<filter>
<filter-name>WSSOAPFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>packagename.WebServiceSoapFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>WSSOAPFilter</filter-name>
<servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name>
</filter-mapping>

Thanks for the information, i have to write a client to send this
information to a web service written by some other group.
Do i send data in UTF-8 Format, how do i do any conversion before calling

That's interesting as I also have the problem with KOI8-R encoded
characters (see my email "Illegal characters"). Can you provide a
little bit more details on how you added the filter and passed the
stream to Axis?

Hi Ashish,
I had same problem with RUSSIAN characters. I used Axis 1.4. I guess Axis2
also does not handle this situation well. Here is what I did,
I used a custom filter. In there I was reading the inputstream using "UTF-8"
[BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(request.getInputStream(), "UTF-8"));]encoding, do what you
require to do here and pass the inputstream to Axis2.
Now Axis2 can handle this and this works fine for russian characters at my
end.
HTH,
Chinmoy
