Quick Start Guide</h2> +<p>This section is aimed to help you get a Web service running in +a short +time using Axis2/C, and consume that service using an Axis2/C client.</p> +<p>First, <a href="http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/download.cgi" class="externalLink" title="External Link">download</a> +the latest binary release from Apache Axis2/C. Once you download the +correct +binary that suits your platform, all that you require to get it running +is to +extract the package to a folder of your choice, and set the AXIS2C_HOME +environment variable to point to this extracted folder. For Linux, you +may +have to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to include the lib +folder (e.g. add $AXIS2C_HOME/lib). For MS Windows, you will have to +add the +lib folder to your PATH variable to include the Axis2/C DLLs to your +path.</p> +<p>Now you should be able to change the directory to the bin +folder of the +extracted folder, and run the simple axis server in one command shell. +Then +change the directory to samples/bin in another command shell and run +any of +the samples there (you may have to set the environment variables in +this new +shell as well). Please see the <a href="http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/docs/installationguide.html" class="externalLink" title="External Link">installation +guide</a> for more details.</p> +<p>Once you have Axis2/C up and running successfully, you can +start writing +your own services and clients.

The name of the +WSDL file should be the name of the service. And, if you choose the +second option, you will have to make use of the <b><code>wsdl_path</code></b> +parameter in the services.xml file. More info on how this can be done +is found under the <a href="#appB">services.xml</a> +section.</p> +<p>An example of the second option can be found the services.xml +of the <b>echo</b> sample service, which is commented.

Hence as +explained in +the previous section, the addressing module can be engaged both on the +client +side as well as on the server side.</p> +<p>The WS-Addressing module can be globally engaged by adding the +<code><module ref="addressing"/></code> line +to the axis2.xml file.</p> +<p>The WS-Addressing module can also be programmatically engaged +using the +following line of code with the service client API <br /> +</p> +<div class="source"> +<pre>axis2_svc_client_engage_module(svc_client, env, AXIS2_MODULE_ADDRESSING);<br /><br /></pre> +</div> +<p>WS-Addressing related options can be set using the +<code>axis2_options</code> struct instance on the client +side. If the +addressing module is engaged, there are no options to be set on the +server +side. The server will employ WS-Addressing if the incoming requests +have +WS-Addressing headers.</p> +<p>There is a mandatory requirement for using WS-Addressing on +the client +side with Axis2/C. That is to set a WS-Addressing action that +represents the +operation to be invoked. Example:</p> +<div class="source"> +<pre>axis2_options_set_action(options,env,"http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/samples/echoString")<br /><br /></pre> +</div> +<p>In addition to the action, which is mandatory, there are other +WS-Addressing related headers that can be sent in a message. Axis2/C +supports +to set those headers as options at the client level. The following +functions +are used to set them.</p> +<div class="source"> +<pre>axis2_options_set_reply_to(options, env, reply_to)<br /><br /></pre> +</div> +<p>Sets the <code>wsa:ReplyTo</code> header. The +ReplyTo header contains the +endpoint to send reply messages. The ReplyTo header is required when +the +response comes in a separate channel (when using a dual channel).</p> +<div class="source"> +<pre>axis2_options_set_fault_to(options, env, fault_to)<br /><br /></pre> +</div> +<p>Sets the <code>wsa:FaultTo</code> header. This +contains the endpoint to +direct fault messages.</p> +<div class="source"> +<pre>axis2_options_set_from(options, env, from)<br /><br /></pre> +</div> +<p>Sometimes the receiving endpoint requires to know the original +sender of +the message. The <code>wsa:From</code> header is used in +such cases. The +above function sets the From header.</p> +<div class="source"> +<pre>axis2_options_set_relates_to(options, env, relates_to)<br /><br /></pre> +</div> +<p>Sets the <code>wsa:RelatesTo</code> header. This +header contains a unique +ID which is the message ID of a previously exchanged message. It helps +to +identify a previous message that relates to the current message.</p> +<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /> +</p> +<p><a name="writing_module"></a></p> +</div> +<div class="section"><a name="9__Writing_a_Module"></a> +<h2>9. Writing a Module</h2> +<p>A module is an extension point in the Axis2/C engine. Modules +are +primarily used to WS-* specifications. In other words, quality of +service +aspects such as security and reliable messaging can be implemented as +modules +and deployed with the Axis2/C engine. <br /> +A SOAP message can contain any number of header blocks. These header +blocks +provide various processing information. In Axis2/C, these various +header +blocks are processed by modules. Some times modules may add header +blocks to +a SOAP message.</p> +<p>Normally a module is a collection of handlers. So writing a +module mainly +consists of writing handlers. There are two interfaces that are +important +when writing a module. They are <code>axis2_module</code> +and +<code>axis2_handler<code>.</code></code></p> +<p>Every module should have three basic functions that are +defined as +function pointer members of the <code>axis2_module_ops</code> +struct. This +struct is defined in the <code>axis2_module.h</code> +header file.</p> +<table class="bodyTable"> +<caption></caption><tbody> +<tr class="b"> +<th>Function Signature</th> +<th>Description</th> +</tr> +<tr class="a"> +<td> +<pre>axis2_status_t (AXIS2_CALL * <br /> init)(axis2_module_t *module, const<br /> axutil_env_t *env, <br /> axis2_conf_ctx_t *conf_ctx, <br /> axis2_module_desc_t *module_desc);</pre> +</td> +<td>This function takes care of the module initialization.</td> +</tr> +<tr class="b"> +<td width="410"> +<pre>axis2_status_t (AXIS2_CALL * <br /> shutdown)(axis2_module_t *module, <br /> const axutil_env_t *env );</pre> +</td> +<td>Shuts down and cleans up the module.</td> +</tr> +<tr class="a"> +<td> +<pre>axis2_status_t (AXIS2_CALL *<br /> fill_handler_create_func_map)(axis2_module_t *module, <br /> const axutil_env_t *env );</pre> +</td> +<td>This function fills the hash map of the handler create +functions for the module.</td> +</tr> +</tbody> +</table> +<p>The module developer has to implement functions with the above +signatures +and assign them to the members of an <code>axis2_module_ops</code> +struct +instance.

TCPMon Tool</h2> +<p>TCPMon is a TCP Monitor tool provided by Axis2/C for +monitoring payloads exchanged between client and server.
