Axis: Way to look into a call.invoke() xml code?

Thread view:

Hi all,

I am desperately trying to debug a web service call from axis. Problem
is: it is an SSL call, and I cannot look into the XML generated by axis
with a sniffer, and axis doesn't seem to provide an option to look into
this.

Does maybe anyone else know a way of doing this?

Greetings & thanks already,
Axel.

If you really need to look at the contents of the SSL connection, insert
an SSL proxy or similar into the connection. You will need to generate
(or buy) a certificate for the proxy, and install it (the public key) in
the client (the web browser).

Well, that's one solution. I would like to see the XML code which Axis
sends to the HTTP layer. That would actually be the only thing which
helps me, cause I need this for logging purposes (later on), too :)

Axis 1.3 includes a TCP Monitor which does exactly that.

yes, right, I know, BUT that's an _external_ solution. I want to see
the code from _within_ my program.
Also the TCP monitor cannot ever look into SSL connections.

Try this:

Message msg = msgContext.getCurrentMessage();
System.out.println("SOAP=>"+msg.getSOAPPartAsString());

ah, code :))

Thanks a lot, I'll try that soon. Right now we discovered a blocker in
the code which short-stopped development :(

I will be coming back to you if it worked or not.

hm. well, It didn't work :)

I have a call object, and its getCurrentContext() does return
something, but the getCurrentMessage() of that one does return null,
alas. I don't know why.

any other ideas? :))

cheers & thanks,
Axel.
