Can someone provide me a working example which gets reports from jasperserver using it's SOAP API.
Actually I know how to run it to a file.... but I need to get report data directly.
Thanks in advance!
I've tried a lot of ways of doing the above thing, and what I've came up with is to get report from JasperServer in JasperPrint format and then export it in whatever you need. Another way of solving that problem is to get report via HTTP API.
You can check out http://www.codeproject.com/KB/ajax/JavaScriptSOAPClient.aspx
But I had the same issue of having to go to jasperserver direct. If you're doing this on a PHP server they have quite a bit of PHP demo code that does the SOAP call for you. I used that and found it far easier to implement than doing it with JavaScript. The above link though should help you with making the SOAP call.
I found Jaspers SOAP documentation lacking so having the PHP source code that did a working example was quite helpful.

I have been investigating Gobblin for awhile and currently I am experiencing difficulties in using Gobblin to get post from Facebook. I could not find any connection example on the internet or I may have searched it wrongly.
I am looking at integrate restfb to Gobblin, however in Gobblin, there is a RestAPI class with connector, source and extractor and I am struggling to find a way to combine these together. Could you please help me with a simple guide on how to implement this or point me to the correct instruction? Thank you very much in advance.
I am working on the same thing, I have extracted my data using the graph-facebook api using a java code. I recently started using gobblin for extracting data. In the beginning i ran gobblin on the debug mode to get an idea as to how the flow was, I think you should definitely try doing that. Now I get my data as a json object and use convertors, Builders, Writers available to get data on to HDFS.
If you want some pointers as to how to run gobblin on debug mode you can comment below, I'll be happy to help.
I want to get end of day stock quotes using Java and was given a WSDLurl showing the xml.
All the places that I find on this topic want to show me how to create a service, and that is complicated. All I want to do is connect to the url and get the data.
This link seems close, but still wants to generate some xml code.

Anyone have a simple java example where you get data from a WSDL url?
Thanks
I highly recommend using something like http://cxf.apache.org/docs/wsdl-to-java.html. Otherwise, you'll have all the pain of trying to deal with the SOAP protocol, and all of it's associated quirks and hoops.
You can use wsimport.
Copy-paste solution
wsimport -keep http://localhost:9999/ws/hello?wsdl

We made our own api for airbrake.io in java. This works fine but airbrake is displaying parameters and stacktraces in some kind of Rails style. This is somewhat annoying. Anyone know of similar services made for java?
Example of how data is displayed:
Parameters
{"controller"=>"", "action"=>""}
Stacktrace
/testapp/app/models/user.rb:53:in `public'
/testapp/app/controllers/users_controller.rb:14:in `index'
UPDATE 2015-02-13: This service no longer exists. The GitHub account linked below is gone, as is the company website.
Have you tried using Coalmine https://github.com/coalmine/coalmine_java Its meant to be used with the Coalmine service: https://getcoalmine.com/
I work at Coalmine and we have been using this internally for some time now. We just open sourced the java connector this week and I would be happy to help you get started with it. You can send me an email at brad#builtfromsource.com
Have you tried using http://code.google.com/p/hoptoad/ . It's a little out of date, but it should just need to update an endpoint to http://api.airbrake.io .
A quick google lead me to http://logdigger.com/ which is designed specific for JAVA specific sites.
I work at Airbrake, and I would be happy to work with you to make our site more JAVA friendly. Please get in touch ben#airbrake.io, and I'll see how we can better display java specific information.
Just adding to the others suggested here, but Raygun (http://raygun.io) has first class support for Java.
Read more here: http://raygun.io/java
I work for Mindscape who built Raygun so can answer any questions you may have about it: jd#mindscape.co.nz. We already have a large number of organizations using Raygun with their Java apps, although Raygun does support other platforms (.NET, Node, Rails, PHP, etc)
I am a newbie in this site but I know anyone here can help me on this problem that I have now. I used to program Java using JDK7 and now I am facing this JTOpen API for AS400-Java interface but my problem now is how to get all the PSF Setting of my Device Description of a certain Writer?
Thanks in advance guys....
Please help.....
Check out the print API's at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/apis/print1a.htm
If you can find an API that provides the information you are looking for, it shouldn't be hard to invoke it from java.
Some of that information is available in com.ibm.as400.access.PrintObject but not all. I'd write a wrapper program/procedure over the Retrieve AFP Information (QPQRAFPI) API, and use JT400 to call that. The equivalent CL command is WRKPSFCFG.
I have to access a existing SOAP webservice from an Android application. I have been provided some WSDL files describing the webservice. Reading some other answers here on SO, it seems ksoap2-android is the way to go, with respect to which SOAP client to use.
The next issue is then how to generate the Java classes needed from the WSDL files, and this is where I am coming up short. As far as I can see there are the following options:
AXIS2 code generator
WSDL2ksoap
JAX-WS wsimport tool
I initially tried #1, with the AXIS2 eclipse plugin for wsdl2code generator. The wizard did successfully generate a lot of Java code, however it also changed my android project to some kind of webservice project, and I was never able to get anything that was generated to compile, let alone work with ksoap2-android. Has anybody has success with this?
I am not able to run wsdl2ksoap successfully, as it seems to require a running webservice, and all I have at the current point in time is WSDL files. Likewise from reading the webpage, it seems to be a project in its initial stages, and not really ready for prime time.
JAX-WS wsimport I have not had a chance to try yet. However I am unsure if what it generates will work with ksoap2-android?
Question: How can I generate Java files from WSDL files, for use on Android with ksoap2-android SOAP client library?
Thanks a lot in advance.
(PS: Yes, the choice is SOAP, it is suboptimal for Android use, but I cannot change that.)
I found this tool to auto generate wsdl to android code,
http://www.wsdl2code.com/example.aspx
Here is the code:
public void callWebService() {
SampleService srv1 = new SampleService();
Request req = new Request();
req.companyId = "1";
req.userName = "userName";
req.password = "pas";
Response response = srv1.ServiceSample(req);
}
I had similar situation (I had only wsdl file without working webservice). I've used
http://easywsdl.com/
to generate classes for android without any problem. This tool uses ksoap library. The great thing with this tool is that it supports WCF extensions and types like data contract with IsReference attribute or Guid.
My conclusion after quite a bit of researching is that there is no such (mature) tool available, unfortunately. Neither AXIS2 or JAX-WS will work on Android, and WSDL2ksoap is simply too immature for any real use.
However there is a proprietary tool called wsclient++ that will do the job really well. (Read update below, when put to real use, it does not stand the distance at all.) It does not use the ksoap2-android client library, it has it's own.
The client library is a bit crude as it has a hard dependency on the http transport, making (unit) testing a bit complicated. But it can be modified quite easily to allow DI, as the source is available in the distributed jar file.
The wsdl to java generator however works just perfect, and will save us tons of time.
Update
After working with wsclient++ for a while, it is clear that the generated classes are really crude, and does not handle error cases at all. (Every method declares throws Exception).
We are no longer using wsclient++, and I would not recommend anyone to use it!
We have not really found any working alternative, unfortunately. :/
In the end we converted our WSDL files using AXIS2, and then wrote a bunch of custom script to strip and transform the generated java files to something that will build on android using ksoap2-android library. Very hackish, and needs tons of manual labor to run. Unfortunately. If you find a better way, or one comes up, please provide a new answer.
I use Apache CXF tool just to create dto, and i wrote a class to perform a basic unmarshalling based on name of elements
A bit late on this, but there is a ksoap2 stub generator under development, and I successfully used it to create the stubs.
http://ksoap2-stub-gen.sourceforge.net/
Also someone made it availabe as an online service (i.e. you give your WSDL's URL and the service will return a zip file containing the stubs).

I have used for iPhone too some auto-generated classes I wanted to see here too.
wsdl2code is one of the similar what I have used at iPhone. Give an url with wsdl file you will get some classes to download. For me the hardest part it was to download the required parts. It took more than 2 minutes of searching :) ksoap2-android-assembly-3.0.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar needed to download ad drag-and-drop to ADT ( Eclipse) . It is super easy, especially if you have used the counterpart at iPhone. - a similar tool I have used.
However in my case I am not happy at all with the solution, because I see I am using cannon, a set of cannons to shot a sparrow. In my case it should be used a HTTP Post and not including dependencies from other libraries.
To be honest I don't care to much, because once the server side believe we have unlimited battery power and unlimited data plan, than I close my eyes and I don't care about marshaling-unmarshaling overheads, which use the CPU ( battery ) increase the data transmitted over network.
In worse case it should be a JSON + HTTP POST not SOAP for mobiles...
I would suggest to talk at server side guys and explain for they why it will not good if they do 2 click on wizards and we do other click on forms to get the generated code. At least while the application is not a huge one, even than should be budget to optimise for mobile a few interfaces implementations.
