Call (Apache Axis)

All Known Implementing Classes:

Call
```
public interface Call
```
The javax.xml.rpc.Call interface provides support for the dynamic invocation of a service endpoint. The javax.xml.rpc.Service interface acts as a factory for the creation of Call instances.
Once a Call instance is created, various setter and getter methods may be used to configure this Call instance.

Method Detail isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired boolean isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired(QName operationName) Indicates whether addParameter and setReturnType methods are to be invoked to specify the parameter and return type specification for a specific operation. Parameters: operationName - Qualified name of the operation Returns: Returns true if the Call implementation class requires addParameter and setReturnType to be invoked in the client code for the specified operation. This method returns false otherwise. addParameter void addParameter(String paramName, QName xmlType, ParameterMode parameterMode) Adds a parameter type and mode for a specific operation. Note that the client code may not call any addParameter and setReturnType methods before calling the invoke method. In this case, the Call implementation class determines the parameter types by using reflection on parameters, using the WSDL description and configured type mapping registry. Parameters: paramName - Name of the parameter xmlType - XML datatype of the parameter parameterMode - Mode of the parameter-whether ParameterMode.IN, ParameterMode.OUT, or ParameterMode.INOUT Throws: JAXRPCException - This exception may be thrown if the method isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired returns false for this operation. IllegalArgumentException - If any illegal parameter name or XML type is specified addParameter void addParameter(String paramName, QName xmlType, Class javaType, ParameterMode parameterMode) Adds a parameter type and mode for a specific operation. This method is used to specify the Java type for either OUT or INOUT parameters. Parameters: paramName - Name of the parameter xmlType - XML datatype of the parameter javaType - The Java class of the parameter parameterMode - Mode of the parameter-whether ParameterMode.IN, OUT or INOUT Throws: JAXRPCException - This exception may be thrown if this method is invoked when the method isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired returns false. If specified XML type and Java type mapping is not valid. For example, TypeMappingRegistry has no serializers for this mapping. IllegalArgumentException - If any illegal parameter name or XML type is specified UnsupportedOperationException - If this method is not supported getParameterTypeByName QName getParameterTypeByName(String paramName) Gets the XML type of a parameter by name. Parameters: paramName - name of the parameter Returns: Returns XML type for the specified parameter setReturnType void setReturnType(QName xmlType) Sets the return type for a specific operation. Invoking setReturnType(null) removes the return type for this Call object. Parameters: xmlType - XML data type of the return value Throws: JAXRPCException - This exception may be thrown when the method isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired returns false. IllegalArgumentException - If an illegal XML type is specified setReturnType void setReturnType(QName xmlType, Class javaType) Sets the return type for a specific operation. Parameters: xmlType - XML data type of the return value javaType - Java class of the return value Throws: JAXRPCException - This exception may be thrown if this method is invoked when the method isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired returns false. If XML type and Java type cannot be mapped using the standard type mapping or TypeMapping registry UnsupportedOperationException - If this method is not supported IllegalArgumentException - If an illegal XML type is specified getReturnType QName getReturnType() Gets the return type for a specific operation. Returns: the XML type for the return value removeAllParameters void removeAllParameters() Removes all specified parameters from this Call instance. Note that this method removes only the parameters and not the return type. The setReturnType(null) is used to remove the return type. Throws: JAXRPCException - This exception may be thrown If this method is called when the method isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired returns false for this Call's operation. getOperationName QName getOperationName() Gets the name of the operation to be invoked using this Call instance. Returns: Qualified name of the operation setOperationName void setOperationName(QName operationName) Sets the name of the operation to be invoked using this Call instance. Parameters: operationName - QName of the operation to be invoked using the Call instance getPortTypeName QName getPortTypeName() Gets the qualified name of the port type. Returns: Qualified name of the port type setPortTypeName void setPortTypeName(QName portType) Sets the qualified name of the port type. Parameters: portType - Qualified name of the port type setTargetEndpointAddress void setTargetEndpointAddress(String address) Sets the address of the target service endpoint. This address must correspond to the transport specified in the binding for this Call instance. Parameters: address - Address of the target service endpoint; specified as an URI getTargetEndpointAddress String getTargetEndpointAddress() Gets the address of a target service endpoint. Returns: Endpoint address of the target service port as an URI setProperty void setProperty(String name, Object value) Sets the value for a named property. JAX-RPC specification specifies a standard set of properties that may be passed to the Call.setProperty method. Parameters: name - Name of the property value - Value of the property Throws: JAXRPCException - If an optional standard property name is specified, however this Call implementation class does not support the configuration of this property. If an invalid (or unsupported) property name is specified or if a value of mismatched property type is passed. If there is any error in the configuration of a valid property. getProperty Object getProperty(String name) Gets the value of a named property. Parameters: name - Name of the property Returns: Value of the named property Throws: JAXRPCException - if an invalid or unsupported property name is passed. removeProperty void removeProperty(String name) Removes a named property.

Parameters: inputParams - Object[]--Parameters for this invocation. This includes only the input params Returns: Returns the return value or null Throws: RemoteException - if there is any error in the remote method invocation or if the Call object is not configured properly. SOAPFaultException - Indicates a SOAP fault JAXRPCException - If there is an error in the configuration of the Call object If inputParams do not match the required parameter set (as specified through the addParameter invocations or in the corresponding WSDL) If parameters and return type are incorrectly specified invoke Object invoke(QName operationName, Object[] inputParams) throws RemoteException Invokes a specific operation using a synchronous request-response interaction mode. Parameters: operationName - QName of the operation inputParams - Object[]--Parameters for this invocation. This includes only the input params. Returns: Return value or null Throws: RemoteException - if there is any error in the remote method invocation. SOAPFaultException - Indicates a SOAP fault JAXRPCException - If there is an error in the configuration of the Call object If inputParams do not match the required parameter set (as specified through the addParameter invocations or in the corresponding WSDL) If parameters and return type are incorrectly specified invokeOneWay void invokeOneWay(Object[] params) Invokes a remote method using the one-way interaction mode. The client thread does not block waiting for the completion of the server processing for this remote method invocation. This method must not throw any remote exceptions. This method may throw a JAXRPCException during the processing of the one-way remote call. Parameters: params - Object[]--Parameters for this invocation. This includes only the input params. Throws: JAXRPCException - if there is an error in the configuration of the Call object (example: a non-void return type has been incorrectly specified for the one-way call) or if there is any error during the invocation of the one-way remote call getOutputParams Map getOutputParams() Returns a Map of {name, value} for the output parameters of the last invoked operation. The parameter names in the returned Map are of type java.lang.String. Returns: Map Output parameters for the last Call.invoke(). Empty Map is returned if there are no output parameters. Throws: JAXRPCException - If this method is invoked for a one-way operation or is invoked before any invoke method has been called. getOutputValues List getOutputValues() Returns a List values for the output parameters of the last invoked operation.
