Creating the Converter Web Service Client ApplicationLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

You create a Web service client application to consume a Web service. The Web service client application connects to the Web service via a Web service proxy.

In this tutorial, you use a Java Web servlet as a client application.

Procedure

  1. In the Java EE perspective, choose the converterwebclient project, and then choose Start of the navigation path File Next navigation step New Next navigation step Other End of the navigation path.

  2. In the list of wizards, choose Start of the navigation path Web Next navigation step Servlet End of the navigation path, and then choose Next .

  3. In the Java package field, enter com.sap.tutorial.servlet .

  4. In the Class name field, enter ConverterServlet , and then choose Finish .

  5. Update the source code as shown in the example below.

    The @WebServiceRef annotation declares a reference to the ConverterService Web service.

                      package com.sap.tutorial.servlet;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.math.BigDecimal;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.ws.WebServiceRef;

import com.sap.tutorial.javaee.service.ConverterLocal;
import com.sap.tutorial.javaee.service.ConverterService;
/**
 * Servlet implementation class for Servlet: ConverterServlet

 public class ConverterServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet implements javax.servlet.Servlet {
    /* (non-Java-doc)
         * @see javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet#HttpServlet()
         */
         @WebServiceRef(name = "ConverterService") 
         ConverterService service;
         public ConverterServlet() {
                super();
        }       
        /* (non-Java-doc)

        protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                response.setContentType("text/html");
                PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

        out.println("method=GET>");
        String euro =request.getParameter("euro");
        String usd = request.getParameter("usd");
        try {
                        if (euro != null && usd != null) {
                                ConverterLocal emptyWebServiceBean = service.getPort(new QName("http://sap.com/tutorial/javaee//service", "{http://sap.com/tutorial/javaee/}ConverterLocal_ConverterServiceGroup_BASIC"),com.sap.tutorial.javaee.service.ConverterLocal.class);
                                BigDecimal EURresult = emptyWebServiceBean.euroToDollar(new BigDecimal(new Integer(usd)));
                                BigDecimal USDresult = emptyWebServiceBean.dollarToEuro(new BigDecimal(new Integer(euro)));
                                out.println("<h3>"+"EUR="+euro+": Converted amount in USD is: "+USDresult+"</h3>");
                                out.println("<h3>"+"USD="+usd+": Converted amount in Euro is: "+EURresult+"</h3>");
                                }
                        else {
                    out.println("<h3>"+"No values entered. Please enter amount in Euro or USD."+"</h3>");
                }
                out.println("<P>");
                        out.println("Enter amount in Euro: ");
                out.println("<input type=text size=20 name=euro>");
                out.println("<br>");
                out.println("Enter amount in USD: ");
                out.println("<input type=text size=20 name=usd>");
                out.println("<br>" + "<br>");
                out.println("<input type=submit value=Convert>");
                out.println("</form>");
                out.println("</body>");
                out.println("</html>");
        } catch (Exception e) {
                out.println(e.getMessage());
        }
   }
}
