interface SOAPBody

All Superinterfaces:
Element, Node, SOAPElement

Most common way to construct:

SOAPEnvelope envelope = …;

SOAPBody body = envelope.getBody();

Based on 214 examples


public interface SOAPBody
extends SOAPElement

An object that represents the contents of the SOAP body element in a SOAP message. A SOAP body element consists of XML data that affects the way the application-specific content is processed.

A SOAPBody object contains SOAPBodyElement objects, which have the content for the SOAP body. A SOAPFault object, which carries status and/or error information, is an example of a SOAPBodyElement object.

Method Detail

addBodyElement

public SOAPBodyElement addBodyElement(Name name)
                               throws SOAPException
Creates a new SOAPBodyElement object with the specified name and adds it to this SOAPBody object.

Parameters:
name - a Name object with the name for the new SOAPBodyElement object
Returns:
the new SOAPBodyElement object
Throws:
SOAPException - if a SOAP error occurs

addBodyElement

public SOAPBodyElement addBodyElement(QName qname)
                               throws SOAPException
Creates a new SOAPBodyElement object with the specified QName and adds it to this SOAPBody object.

Parameters:
qname - a QName object with the qname for the new SOAPBodyElement object
Returns:
the new SOAPBodyElement object
Throws:
SOAPException - if a SOAP error occurs

addDocument

public SOAPBodyElement addDocument(Document document)
                            throws SOAPException
Adds the root node of the DOM {@link org.w3c.dom.Document} to this SOAPBody object.

Calling this method invalidates the document parameter. The client application should discard all references to this Document and its contents upon calling addDocument. The behavior of an application that continues to use such references is undefined.

Parameters:
document - the Document object whose root node will be added to this SOAPBody.
Returns:
the SOAPBodyElement that represents the root node that was added.
Throws:
SOAPException - if the Document cannot be added

addFault

public SOAPFault addFault()
                   throws SOAPException
Creates a new SOAPFault object and adds it to this SOAPBody object. The new SOAPFault will have default values set for the mandatory child elements. The type of the SOAPFault will be a SOAP 1.1 or a SOAP 1.2 SOAPFault depending on the protocol specified while creating the MessageFactory instance.

A SOAPBody may contain at most one SOAPFault child element.

Returns:
the new SOAPFault object
Throws:
SOAPException - if there is a SOAP error

addFault

public SOAPFault addFault(Name faultCode,
                          String faultString)
                   throws SOAPException
Creates a new SOAPFault object and adds it to this SOAPBody object. The type of the SOAPFault will be a SOAP 1.1 or a SOAP 1.2 SOAPFault depending on the protocol specified while creating the MessageFactory instance.

For SOAP 1.2 the faultCode parameter is the value of the Fault/Code/Value element and the faultString parameter is the value of the Fault/Reason/Text element. For SOAP 1.1 the faultCode parameter is the value of the faultcode element and the faultString parameter is the value of the faultstring element.

In case of a SOAP 1.2 fault, the default value for the mandatory xml:lang attribute on the Fault/Reason/Text element will be set to java.util.Locale.getDefault()

A SOAPBody may contain at most one SOAPFault child element.

Parameters:
faultCode - a Name object giving the fault code to be set; must be one of the fault codes defined in the version of SOAP specification in use
faultString - a String giving an explanation of the fault
Returns:
the new SOAPFault object
Throws:
SOAPException - if there is a SOAP error

addFault

public SOAPFault addFault(Name faultCode,
                          String faultString,
                          Locale locale)
                   throws SOAPException
Creates a new SOAPFault object and adds it to this SOAPBody object. The type of the SOAPFault will be a SOAP 1.1 or a SOAP 1.2 SOAPFault depending on the protocol specified while creating the MessageFactory instance.

For SOAP 1.2 the faultCode parameter is the value of the Fault/Code/Value element and the faultString parameter is the value of the Fault/Reason/Text element. For SOAP 1.1 the faultCode parameter is the value of the faultcode element and the faultString parameter is the value of the faultstring element.

A SOAPBody may contain at most one SOAPFault child element.

Parameters:
faultCode - a Name object giving the fault code to be set; must be one of the fault codes defined in the Version of SOAP specification in use
faultString - a String giving an explanation of the fault
locale - a {@link java.util.Locale} object indicating the native language of the faultString
Returns:
the new SOAPFault object
Throws:
SOAPException - if there is a SOAP error

addFault

public SOAPFault addFault(QName faultCode,
                          String faultString)
                   throws SOAPException
Creates a new SOAPFault object and adds it to this SOAPBody object. The type of the SOAPFault will be a SOAP 1.1 or a SOAP 1.2 SOAPFault depending on the protocol specified while creating the MessageFactory instance.

For SOAP 1.2 the faultCode parameter is the value of the Fault/Code/Value element and the faultString parameter is the value of the Fault/Reason/Text element. For SOAP 1.1 the faultCode parameter is the value of the faultcode element and the faultString parameter is the value of the faultstring element.

In case of a SOAP 1.2 fault, the default value for the mandatory xml:lang attribute on the Fault/Reason/Text element will be set to java.util.Locale.getDefault()

A SOAPBody may contain at most one SOAPFault child element

Parameters:
faultCode - a QName object giving the fault code to be set; must be one of the fault codes defined in the version of SOAP specification in use
faultString - a String giving an explanation of the fault

the new SOAPFault object
Throws:
SOAPException - if there is a SOAP error

addFault
