Unable to unmarshall attachment parts where the type is 'application/octet-stream' ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBWS-2706 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-2706 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: jbossws-native Affects Versions: jbossws-native-3.1.2 Reporter: Darran Lofthouse Assignee: Darran Lofthouse Fix For: jbossws-native-3.2.0 Based on the following WSDL sections: - <message name="messageInput"> <part name="request" element="s:InputRequest"/> <part name="attach1" type="xsd:string"/> <part name="attach2" type="xsd:base64Binary"/> </message> <message name="messageOutput"> <part name="response" element="s:OutputResponse"/> <part name="attach1" type="xsd:string"/> <part name="attach2" type="xsd:base64Binary"/> </message> <binding name="SwaTestSoapBinding1" type="tns:SwaTest1"> <soap:binding transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http" style="document"/> <operation name="echoMultipleAttachments"> <soap:operation/> <input> <mime:multipartRelated> <mime:part> <soap:body parts="request" use="literal"/> </mime:part> <mime:part> <mime:content part="attach1" type="application/octet-stream"/> </mime:part> <mime:part> <mime:content part="attach2" type="application/octet-stream"/> </mime:part> </mime:multipartRelated> </input> <output> <mime:multipartRelated> <mime:part> <soap:body parts="response" use="literal"/> </mime:part> <mime:part> <mime:content part="attach1" type="application/octet-stream"/> </mime:part> <mime:part> <mime:content part="attach2" type="application/octet-stream"/> </mime:part> </mime:multipartRelated> </output> </operation> </binding> JBossWS can send messages without problem but unmarshalling the messages results in the following error: - Caused by: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: javaType [[B] is not assignable from attachment content: java.io.ByteArrayInputStream at org.jboss.ws.core.EndpointInvocation.transformPayloadValue(EndpointInvocation.java:248) The reason is because a DataHandler is used to wrap the attachment part, the data handler is passed the attachment along with the content type 'application/octet-stream' as this is not related to a specific type the call to getContent() on the DataHandler within EndpointInvocation returns an InputStraem for the attachment - this is not assignable to the expected Java type. The transformPayloadValue method in EndpointInvocation requires an additional step to take the InputStream and convert it to the expected Java type. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
