Sending a Message

Use

You can use a consumer proxy to do the following:

To call a service through the Integration Server
To call a Web service

How the server proxy is used depends on the runtime configuration.

Procedure

To send a message, call the corresponding consumer proxy in your application program.

Declare the following variables:

DATA:

* Reference variables for proxy and exception class

   lo_clientProxy TYPE REF TO [generated proxy class],

   lo_sys_exception TYPE REF TO cx_ai_system_fault,

* Structures to set and get message content

   ls_request TYPE [output message type],

   ls_response TYPE [input message type].
Complete the structure ls_request for the request message.
Instantiate your consumer proxy:

TRY.
- create proxy client
  
  CREATE OBJECT lo_consumerProxy
  
  EXPORTING LOGICAL_PORT_NAME = 'LOGICAL_PORT_NAME'
  
  Note
  
  LOGICAL_PORT_NAME is the name of the logical port that you want to use. It is also used to define the receiver. You can omit this parameter if you are using a default port or the PI runtime (refer to Runtime Configuration).
To send a message, call the corresponding consumer proxy method. WSDL allows several such methods (specified by the element <operation>). In XI, there is only one method, with the default name EXECUTE_SYNCHRONOUS or EXECUTE_ASYNCHRONOUS. Catch at least the exception cx_ai_system_fault:

* do synchronous consumer proxy call

       CALL METHOD lo_consumerProxy->execute_synchronous

             EXPORTING output = ls_request

             IMPORTING input = ls_response.

       CATCH cx_ai_system_fault INTO lo_sys_exception.

* Error handling

ENDTRY.
