Class Provider

java.lang.Object
jakarta.xml.ws.spi.Provider

public abstract class Provider extends Object
Service provider for ServiceDelegate and Endpoint objects.
Since:
1.6, JAX-WS 2.0
  • Constructor Details

    • Provider

      protected Provider()
      Creates a new instance of Provider
  • Method Details

    • provider

      public static Provider provider()
      Creates a new provider object.

      The algorithm used to locate the provider subclass to use consists of the following steps:

      • Use the service-provider loading facilities, defined by the ServiceLoader class, to attempt to locate and load an implementation of Provider service using the default loading mechanism.
      • Use the configuration file "jaxws.properties". The file is in standard Properties format and typically located in the conf directory of the Java installation. It contains the fully qualified name of the implementation class with the key jakarta.xml.ws.spi.Provider.
      • If a system property with the name jakarta.xml.ws.spi.Provider is defined, then its value is used as the name of the implementation class.
      • Finally, a platform default implementation is used.
      Returns:
      provider object
    • createServiceDelegate

      public abstract ServiceDelegate createServiceDelegate(URL wsdlDocumentLocation, QName serviceName, Class<? extends Service> serviceClass)

      serviceName - The qualified name of the service.
      serviceClass - The service class, which MUST be either jakarta.xml.ws.Service or a subclass thereof.
      Returns:

    • createServiceDelegate

      public ServiceDelegate createServiceDelegate(URL wsdlDocumentLocation, QName serviceName, Class<? extends Service> serviceClass, WebServiceFeature... features)

    • getPort

      public abstract <T> T getPort(EndpointReference endpointReference, Class<T> serviceEndpointInterface, WebServiceFeature... features)
      The getPort method returns a proxy. If there are any reference parameters in the endpointReference, then those reference parameters MUST appear as SOAP headers, indicating them to be reference parameters, on all messages sent to the endpoint. The parameter serviceEndpointInterface specifies the service endpoint interface that is supported by the returned proxy. The parameter endpointReference specifies the endpoint that will be invoked by the returned proxy. In the implementation of this method, the Jakarta XML Web Services runtime system takes the responsibility of selecting a protocol binding (and a port) and configuring the proxy accordingly from the WSDL metadata of the serviceEndpointInterface and the EndpointReference. For this method to successfully return a proxy, WSDL metadata MUST be available and the endpointReference MUST contain an implementation understood serviceName metadata.
      Type Parameters:
      T - Service endpoint interface
      Parameters:
      endpointReference - the EndpointReference that will be invoked by the returned proxy.
      serviceEndpointInterface - Service endpoint interface
      features - A list of WebServiceFeatures to configure on the proxy. Supported features not in the features parameter will have their default values.
      Returns:
      Object Proxy instance that supports the specified service endpoint interface
      Throws:
      WebServiceException -
      • If there is an error during creation of the proxy
      • If there is any missing WSDL metadata as required by this method}
      • If this endpointReference is illegal
      • If an illegal serviceEndpointInterface is specified
      • If a feature is enabled that is not compatible with this port or is unsupported.

    • createW3CEndpointReference

      public abstract W3CEndpointReference createW3CEndpointReference(String address, QName serviceName, QName portName, List<Element> metadata, String wsdlDocumentLocation, List<Element> referenceParameters)
      Factory method to create a W3CEndpointReference.

      This method can be used to create a W3CEndpointReference for any endpoint by specifying the address property along with any other desired properties. This method can also be used to create a W3CEndpointReference for an endpoint that is published by the same Jakarta EE application. To do so the address property can be provided or this method can automatically determine the address of an endpoint that is published by the same Jakarta EE application and is identified by the serviceName and portName properties. If the address is null and the serviceName and portName do not identify an endpoint published by the same Jakarta EE application, a javax.lang.IllegalStateException MUST be thrown.

      Parameters:
      address - Specifies the address of the target endpoint
      serviceName - Qualified name of the service in the WSDL.
      portName - Qualified name of the endpoint in the WSDL.
      metadata - A list of elements that should be added to the W3CEndpointReference instances wsa:metadata element.
      wsdlDocumentLocation - URL for the WSDL document location for the service.
      referenceParameters - Reference parameters to be associated with the returned EndpointReference instance.
      Returns:
      the W3CEndpointReference created from serviceName, portName, metadata, wsdlDocumentLocation and referenceParameters. This method never returns null.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException -
      • If the address, serviceName and portName are all null.
      • If the serviceName service is null and the portName is NOT null.
      • If the address property is null and the serviceName and portName do not specify a valid endpoint published by the same Jakarta EE application.
      • If the serviceNameis NOT null and is not present in the specified WSDL.
      • If the portName port is not null and it is not present in serviceName service in the WSDL.
      • If the wsdlDocumentLocation is NOT null and does not represent a valid WSDL.
      WebServiceException - If an error occurs while creating the W3CEndpointReference.

      Factory method to create a W3CEndpointReference. Using this method, a W3CEndpointReference instance can be created with extension elements, and attributes. Provider implementations must override the default implementation.

      This method can be used to create a W3CEndpointReference for any endpoint by specifying the address property along with any other desired properties. This method can also be used to create a W3CEndpointReference for an endpoint that is published by the same Jakarta EE application. To do so the address property can be provided or this method can automatically determine the address of an endpoint that is published by the same Jakarta EE application and is identified by the serviceName and portName propeties. If the address is null and the serviceName and portName do not identify an endpoint published by the same Jakarta EE application, a javax.lang.IllegalStateException MUST be thrown.

      Parameters:
      address - Specifies the address of the target endpoint
      interfaceName - the wsam:InterfaceName element in the wsa:Metadata element.
      serviceName - Qualified name of the service in the WSDL.
