How to add header to SOAP request?

Question

I try to invoke HTTPS SOAP web service through java code:

    URL url = new URL(\"https://somehost:8181/services/\"SomeService?wsdl\");
    QName qname = new         


        

Answer 1

Sample main Class:

package test;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.xml.ws.BindingProvider;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.Handler;

// next headers is generated from "NetBeans New Webservice Client"
import sk.firma.wstest.definitions.*;
import sk.firma.wstest.schemas.*;

/**

 * @author Jan
 */
public class TestWSService {

    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        try {

            WsService service = new WsService();
            Ws port = service.getWsKsSoap11();

            // This is the block that apply the Ws Security to the request
            BindingProvider bindingProvider = (BindingProvider) port;
            @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
            List handlerChain = new ArrayList();
            handlerChain.add(new WSSecurityHeaderSOAPHandler("username", "password"));
            bindingProvider.getBinding().setHandlerChain(handlerChain);

            // Initialize and Run Service
            InVal inVal = new InVal();
            ReturnValue retVal = port.test(inVal);

        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }       
    }
}

And now WS-Security Header SOAP Handler:

package test;

import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.TimeZone;

import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPEnvelope;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPHeader;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPHandler;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPMessageContext;

public class WSSecurityHeaderSOAPHandler implements SOAPHandler {

    private static final String URL_WSSE_NAMESPACE = "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd";
    private static final String URL_WSU_NAMESPACE = "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd";

    private final String usernameText;
    private final String passwordText;

    public WSSecurityHeaderSOAPHandler(String usernameText, String passwordText) {
        this.usernameText = usernameText;
        this.passwordText = passwordText;

    }

    public String getCurrentDateTime() {
        /* e.g. 2001-10-13T09:00:00Z */
        final SimpleDateFormat FORMATTER_DATETIME_NO_MS = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss");

        DateFormat dfETC = FORMATTER_DATETIME_NO_MS;
        dfETC.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("CET"));

        StringBuffer dateETC = new StringBuffer(dfETC.format(new Date()));
        dateETC.append('Z');
        return dateETC.toString();
    }

    public String getCurrentDateTimePlusDelay(long delayInSeconds) {
        /* e.g. 2001-10-13T09:00:00Z */
        final SimpleDateFormat FORMATTER_DATETIME_NO_MS = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss");

        DateFormat dfETC = FORMATTER_DATETIME_NO_MS;
        dfETC.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("CET"));
        Date date = new Date();

        long timeInMsecs = date.getTime();
        date.setTime(timeInMsecs + delayInSeconds*1000L);
        StringBuffer dateETC = new StringBuffer(dfETC.format(date));
        dateETC.append('Z');
        return dateETC.toString();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext soapMessageContext) {

        Boolean outboundProperty = (Boolean) soapMessageContext.get(MessageContext.MESSAGE_OUTBOUND_PROPERTY);

        if (outboundProperty) {

            try {
                SOAPEnvelope soapEnvelope = soapMessageContext.getMessage().getSOAPPart().getEnvelope();

                SOAPHeader header = soapEnvelope.getHeader();
                if (header == null) {
                    header = soapEnvelope.addHeader();
                }

                SOAPElement securityHeaderElement = header.addChildElement("Security", "wsse", URL_WSSE_NAMESPACE);
                securityHeaderElement.addAttribute(soapEnvelope.createName("S:mustUnderstand"), "1");

                // Add Timestamp element to "Security" soapHeaderElement

                javax.xml.soap.Name timestampElementName = soapEnvelope.createName("Timestamp", "wsu", URL_WSU_NAMESPACE);
                SOAPElement timestampSOAPElement = securityHeaderElement.addChildElement(timestampElementName);
                String created = getCurrentDateTime(); 
                String expires = getCurrentDateTimePlusDelay(60L*60L); /* 60 minutes delay */

                // Add Created to Timestamp
                SOAPElement createdSOAPElement = timestampSOAPElement
