  1. POColdFusion SOAP response with attachments
    text
    copied!<p>I am using Coldfusion9 to interact with a 3rd party SOAP service with which I need to both send and receive SOAP with attachments. I am having no issue in receiving the SOAP which may or may not have binary attachments by using ToString() around the HTTP content to convert the SOAP Body into a usable string, however the service requires that I send my response back using attachments as well which is where I am coming undone. I've just never done this in ColdFusion and i'm not exactly sure how I should be presenting this to the originating service so that the SOAP body is referenced via an ID.</p> <p>Below is the parsing of the incoming SOAP data with attachments:</p> <pre><code>&lt;cfset soapData = GetHttpRequestData()&gt; &lt;!--- Loop over the HTTP headers and dump the SOAP content into a variable ---&gt; &lt;cfsavecontent variable="soapContent"&gt; &lt;cfoutput&gt; &lt;cfloop collection = #soapData.headers# item = "http_item"&gt; #http_item#: #StructFind(soapData.headers, http_item)# #chr(10)##chr(13)# &lt;/cfloop&gt; request_method: #soapData.method# #chr(10)##chr(13)# server_protocol: #soapData.protocol# #chr(10)##chr(13)# http_content --- #chr(10)##chr(13)# #toString(soapData.content)# &lt;/cfoutput&gt; &lt;/cfsavecontent&gt; &lt;!--- Save file to flat file ---&gt; &lt;cffile action = "write" file = "#expandPath('../')#logs/#dateFormat(now(),'dd-mm-yyyy')#_#timeFormat(now(),'HHmmss')#.txt" output = "#soapContent#"&gt; </code></pre> <p>Now I am currently presenting the response as a full SOAP XML response containing the body as inline XML with the required STATUSCODE (see below). </p> <pre><code>&lt;cfsavecontent variable="strResponse"&gt; &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; &lt;SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAPENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"&gt; &lt;SOAPENV:Body&gt; &lt;ns1:processResponse xmlns:ns1="urn:TripFlow" SOAPENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"&gt; &lt;STATUSLVL&gt;00&lt;/STATUSLVL&gt; &lt;/ns1:processResponse&gt; &lt;/SOAP-ENV:Body&gt; &lt;/SOAPENV:Envelope&gt; &lt;/cfsavecontent&gt; &lt;!--- Strip all whitespace between tags ---&gt; &lt;cfset strResponse = trim(ReReplaceNoCase(strResponse,'(&gt;[\s]*&lt;)','&gt;&lt;','ALL'))&gt; &lt;!--- Output the XML response to the soap service ---&gt; &lt;cfoutput&gt;#strResponse#&lt;/cfoutput&gt; </code></pre> <p>The above response is throwing an error because the SOAP service requires the response to be sent referencing the body message as an attachment exactly like follows from the documentation:</p> <pre><code>HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 01 Apr 2010 09:30:25 GMT Server: Jetty/5.1.4 (Windows XP/5.1 x86 java/1.5.0_15 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=soaptestserver; type="text/xml"; start="&lt;theenvelope&gt;" SOAPAction: "" Content-Length: 796 Connection: close --soaptestserver Content-ID: &lt;theenvelope&gt; Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 442 &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;&lt;SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAPENV=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"&gt;&lt;SOAPENV: Body&gt;&lt;ns1:processResponse xmlns:ns1="urn:TripFlow" SOAPENV: encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"&gt;&lt;message href="cid:thecontentmessage"/&gt;&lt;/ns1:processResponse&gt;&lt;/SOAP-ENV:Body&gt;&lt;/SOAPENV: Envelope&gt; --soaptestserver SOAP Interface www.travelsolutions.com 123 travel solutions online V14.0 External System Integration Content-ID: &lt;thecontentmessage&gt; Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 65 &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;&lt;STATUSLVL&gt;00&lt;/STATUSLVL&gt; --soaptestserver-- </code></pre> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciate as i'm really hitting my head up against a wall on this one.
