Convert SOAP XML string to object or just read its contents










0















Am receiving a SOAP XML response from an endpoint and I am trying to read its' contents. I have tried a couple of methods but it keeps giving me null



String xml = "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><soap:Body><CashOutPaymentRequestResponse xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"><CashOutPaymentRequestResult><ResponseCode>1002</ResponseCode><ResponseDesc>FAC Code and Amount does not match, Contact your Admin.</ResponseDesc></CashOutPaymentRequestResult></CashOutPaymentRequestResponse></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>";

JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(cashOutPaymentRequestEnvelope.class);
Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();

StringReader reader = new StringReader(xml);
cashOutPaymentRequestEnvelope person = (cashOutPaymentRequestEnvelope) unmarshaller.unmarshal(reader);


My method 2



Element rootdecryptedXml = XmlParseHelper.getStringXml(xml);
String responseUnEscapedXml = StringEscapeUtils.unescapeXml(XmlParseHelper.getString("CashOutPaymentRequestResult", rootdecryptedXml));

String responseEscapedXml = XmlParseHelper.getString("CashOutPaymentRequestResult", rootdecryptedXml);

System.out.println("step 1.. n" + responseEscapedXml);

Element root = XmlParseHelper.getStringXml(responseEscapedXml);

System.out.println("step 2aa...n" + XmlParseHelper.getString("ResponseCode", root));
System.out.println("step 2bb...n" + XmlParseHelper.getString("ResponseDesc", root));


None of the methods seem to work, they all give me null



My getString function



public static String getString(String tagName, Element element) 
if (element == null)
return " ";


NodeList list = element.getElementsByTagName(tagName);

if (list != null && list.getLength() > 0)
NodeList subList = list.item(0).getChildNodes();
if (subList != null && subList.getLength() > 0)
return subList.item(0).getNodeValue();


return " ";



My get StringXml



public static Element getStringXml(String responseXml) throws SAXException, IOException, ParserConfigurationException 
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
Document document;
Element rootdecryptedXml = null;
DocumentBuilder builder;
builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
document = builder.parse(new InputSource(new StringReader(responseXml)));
rootdecryptedXml = document.getDocumentElement();
return rootdecryptedXml;

    Your first method using JAXB is sound - provided the JAXB Java class is the correct one for the given XML. You just need to feed the JAXB Unmarshaller just the relevant XML (the <CashOutPaymentRequestResult>...</CashOutPaymentRequestResult> part ) without the SOAP envelope. Use the SAAJ API to retrieve this and then unmarshall it. See docs.oracle.com/cd/E19644-01/817-5452/wsgjaxm.html for SAAJ.

Thanks to Michal's comment I developed a solution to this



InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(xml.getBytes());
MessageFactory factory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
SOAPMessage message = factory.createMessage(null, is);
NodeList listResult = message.getSOAPBody().getElementsByTagName("CashOutPaymentRequestResult");
for (int i = 0; i < listResult.getLength(); i++)
NodeList children = listResult.item(i).getChildNodes();
for (int k = 0; k < children.getLength(); k++)
System.out.println(children.item(k).getNodeName());
System.out.println(children.item(k).getTextContent());
if (children.item(k).getNodeName().equals("ResponseCode"))



if (children.item(k).getNodeName().equals("ResponseDesc"))
