Apache AXIS

Simple invoke standard Version web service via URLConnection:

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

HttpURLConnection httpurlconnection = null;
String HostUrl = "localhost";
String SoapActionUrl = "http://localhost:8080/axis/services/Version";

URL url = new URL(SoapActionUrl);
URLConnection urlconnection = url.openConnection();
httpurlconnection = (HttpURLConnection) urlconnection;

StringBuffer stringbuffer = new StringBuffer();

stringbuffer.append("<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:SOAP-ENV=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">");
stringbuffer.append("<SOAP-ENV:Body>");
stringbuffer.append("<getVersion>");
stringbuffer.append("</getVersion></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>");

byte abyte0[] = stringbuffer.toString().getBytes();
httpurlconnection.addRequestProperty("Host", HostUrl);
httpurlconnection.addRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(abyte0.length));
httpurlconnection.addRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=UTF-8");
httpurlconnection.addRequestProperty("SOAPAction", SoapActionUrl);
httpurlconnection.setInstanceFollowRedirects(true);

httpurlconnection.setRequestMethod("POST");
httpurlconnection.setDoOutput(true);
httpurlconnection.setDoInput(true);

OutputStream outputstream = httpurlconnection.getOutputStream();
outputstream.write(abyte0);
outputstream.close();

System.out.println(httpurlconnection.getResponseMessage());

InputStreamReader inputstreamreader = new InputStreamReader(httpurlconnection.getInputStream());
BufferedReader bufferedreader = new BufferedReader(inputstreamreader);
StringBuffer stringbuffer1 = new StringBuffer();
String s3;
while ((s3 = bufferedreader.readLine()) != null) {
stringbuffer1.append(s3);
System.out.println(s3);
}
bufferedreader.close();
httpurlconnection = null;
}
}
