Apache Camel invoke SOAP service cast problem - soap

Question

I am new in Apache Camel and I use Red Hat CodeReady Studio 12.16.0.GA. I want invoke soap web service. I have used this example https://tomd.xyz/camel-consume-soap-service/
This is my camel context file
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:camel-cxf="http://camel.apache.org/schema/cxf"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans https://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring https://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd http://camel.apache.org/schema/cxf http://camel.apache.org/schema/cxf/camel-cxf.xsd">
<bean class="org.apache.cxf.transport.common.gzip.GZIPInInterceptor" id="gZipInInterceptor"/>
<bean

<camel-cxf:cxfEndpoint
address="http://webservices.oorsprong.org/websamples.countryinfo/CountryInfoService.wso"
id="fullCountryInfoResponseClient" serviceClass="org.oorsprong.websamples_countryinfo.CountryInfoServiceSoapType">

</camel-cxf:inInterceptors>
<camel-cxf:outInterceptors>
<ref bean="gZipOutInterceptor"/>
</camel-cxf:outInterceptors>
</camel-cxf:cxfEndpoint>
<bean
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer" id="bean-66d2672d-c6c0-4984-bc31-90bc30bfaaef"/>
<camelContext id="camel"
xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring" xmlns:order="http://fabric8.com/examples/order/v7">
<route id="simple-route">
<from id="_to2" uri="timer:timerName?delay=0&repeatCount=1"/>
<setBody id="_setBody2">
<constant>"US"</constant>
</setBody>
<bean beanType="com.example.GetFullCountryInfoBuilder"
id="_bean1" method="getFullCountryInfo"/>
<setHeader headerName="operationNamespace" id="_setHeader1">
<constant>http://www.oorsprong.org/websamples.countryinfo</constant>
</setHeader>
<setHeader headerName="operationName" id="_setHeader2">
<constant>FullCountryInfo</constant>
</setHeader>
<to id="_to1" uri="cxf:bean:fullCountryInfoResponseClient"/>
<bean beanType="com.example.GetFullCountryInfoBuilder"
id="_bean2" method="getFullCountryInfoOutput"/>
<log id="_log1" message=">>>${body}"/>
</route>
</camelContext>
</beans>
this is my input bean
public class GetFullCountryInfoBuilder {
public GetFullCountryInfoBuilder() {}
#Bean
public FullCountryInfo getFullCountryInfo(#Body String id) {
FullCountryInfo request = new FullCountryInfo();
request.setSCountryISOCode(id);
return request;
}
#Bean
public String getFullCountryInfoOutput(#Body FullCountryInfoResponse response) {
String ret = response.getFullCountryInfoResult().getSName() + " - " + response.getFullCountryInfoResult().getSCapitalCity() + " - " + response.getFullCountryInfoResult().getSCurrencyISOCode();
return ret;
}
}
Still get error org.apache.cxf.interceptor.Fault: org.oorsprong.websamples.FullCountryInfo cannot be cast to java.lang.String
It looks like CXF don't handle FullCountryInfo object but String and Camel tries to convert it.
When I change return of getFullCountryInfo to String this exception disappear but couple of another come in.
Caused by: org.apache.camel.InvalidPayloadException: No body available of type: org.oorsprong.websamples.FullCountryInfoResponse but has value: [org.oorsprong.websamples.TCountryInfo#3c5110df] of type: org.apache.cxf.message.MessageContentsList on: Message[].

Answer 1

So input for CXF is not an object as is described in example but string.
Output of CXF is org.apache.cxf.message.MessageContentsList that you have to convert to string to log it. I have used getFullCountryInfoOutput bean in this case.
