Hi Mike,
I am very sorry, but unfortunately this
doesn’t really help that much, so I will try to explain the problem more
clearly and ask one final question about this. Further
clarifications/confusions are inlined below.
Calling this
bpelPartnerLink.getPartnerLinkType();
where bpelPartnerLink is an
org.eclipse.bpel.model.PartnerLink, we get back a PartnerLinkTypeProxy in case
the PLT is defined in one of these *Artifacts.wsdl files. Then, when we try to
get the value of any of the fields of the PartnerLinkType, we just get null.
This is not very good as the code
generating a deployment descriptor is not very imaginative and doesn’t
really know how to turn null into useful output ;-)
You can create a simple process using the
editor and cause it to generate an artifacts file and try this out yourself.
My (maybe) final question: Why is it
reasonable to get a proxy back in response to calling the getter (which then tries
to resolve the BPEL partnerlinkType) in the scenario involving an *Artifacts
file?
If there is a good reason why we should
get back a proxy in this scenario,
then I promise to solve the problem differently and leave you in peace.
Feel free to skype me.

for WSDLUtil.resolveBPELPartnerLinkType bug
Bruno,
1) The only way you will get a stack overflow exception as it stands, is if the
WSDLs include each other (cyclic includes) ... and that in fact does happen
(the stack overflow).
The stack overflow occurred due to the try-catch
that I added (as described) due to looking at the same Definition over and over
again (the BPEL definition, if I remember correctly, which was in a list of
three objects, one of which would have been the WSDL the code should have
looked at to make me happy).
Nevertheless, the check you put in to
prevent looking at the same definition over and over again definitely makes
good sense.
2) I was able to create this and I re-wrote some of the code in WSDLUtil to
make sure that includes like this do not cause a problem anymore. I've checked
it in ... so update and check your code to see if that exception still happens
or not.
3) Regarding the partner link type definition in the model, they use
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/05/partner-link/
So rewriting the PLT would not solve the problem as you hope ....
Pity
4) In WSDL and BPEL, on the import, the targetNamepsace of the WSDL must be the
same as the namespace attribute on the import. That's just required. If you need
types from another namespace, you will need to import them into the BPEL
process separately (as another import).
Agreed. But this doesn’t mean that
you can only import “stuff” into a WSDL (tns A) from a WSDL with the
same namespace (tns A). Or does it? In the example below we want to import something
from gridsam.wsdl and the ns on the import matches the tns of gridsam.wsdl.
However, I am not 100% certain anymore
whether the code actually supplied the wrong namespaceURI or not. Would need to
debug it again to see L
5) You may be really wanting to lookup (or resolve) things like portTypes,
types, element, partner links, etc. from the perspective of the BPEL process.
WSDLUtil only allows you to look them up from the WSDL being the starting
point. At some point, you may want to ask, given a process defn, does a
portType "foo:bar" exist for example, or does a partnerLinkType
"bar:foo" exists within
all the imports.
I am (in my code) just calling a getter on
a org.eclipse.bpel.model.PartnerLink (i.e. getPartnerLinkType()). That’s
all. I didn’t use WSDLUtil or BPELUtil directly; during the course of
debugging this problem I just realized that, to do the resolution, the methods
in WSDLUtil were called for (ECoreUtil.resolve(), etc.) (if you run the test
case and follow the stack trace…). I was just trying to illuminate
matters a bit.
So I added a simple BPELUtils.lookup() method that should take care of this.
Not sure if this is what you need or want, but perhaps it will solve the
problem you are facing ...
Thank you. I think I should be able to do
some DOM/XPath processing (because as described above we can’t get, for
example, a QName from the model when the artifacts scenario is present) that
would then allow me to get all the parameters I need to use that method. I was
just hoping that as the getter (getPartnerLinkType()) was doing resolution, I
wouldn’t have to resort to do that.
I hope that covers it.

Just a quick thought. What do you think?
For example, in jobmanager.wsdl:
- update plnk schema to http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/03/partner-link/
- change partnerLinkType definitions to this format:
<plnk:partnerLinkType name="jobmanagerPartner">
<plnk:role name="jobmanagerProvider">
<plnk:portType name="tns:jobmanager"/>
</plnk:role>
</plnk:partnerLinkType>
Would this solve the problem (in part)?

bug
Hi,
I have come across at what looks like another issue in the resolveX methods
in WSDLUtil.
This time it tries to resolveBPELRole, which in turn uses
resolveBPELPartnerLinkType.
Here is the WSDL that causes it to trip up:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<definitions name="jobmanager"
targetNamespace="http://sse.cs.ucl.ac.uk/omii-bpel/2.0.0/polymorph/jobmanage
r" xmlns:tns="http://sse.cs.ucl.ac.uk/omii-bpel/2.0.0/polymorph/jobmanager"
xmlns:bpws="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/"
xmlns:plnk="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/05/partner-link/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
xmlns:gridsam="http://www.icenigrid.org/service/gridsam"
xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/">
<import namespace="http://www.icenigrid.org/service/gridsam"
location="gridsam.wsdl"/>
<!--
<portType name="jobmanager">
<operation name="submitjob">
<input message="gridsam:SubmitJobRequest"/>
<output message="gridsam:GetJobStatusResponse"/>
</operation>
</portType>
<plnk:partnerLinkType name="jobmanagerPartner">
<plnk:role name="jobmanagerProvider" portType="tns:jobmanager"/>
</plnk:role>
</plnk:partnerLinkType>
-->
</definitions>
As you can see the messages in the operation make use of types defined in
another WSDL via an import (gridsam.wsdl).
In resolveBPELPartnerLinkType(), when trying to get the imports of the
jobmanager.wsdl definition (see attachment), it will do
DefinitionImpl.getImports. In line 947 of DefinitionImpl only adds an Import
(for resolveBPELPartnerLinkType to do its magic on) if the namespace of the
WSDL definition (jobmanager.wsdl) matches that of the import.
In this scenario though the import we need to look at to resolve correctly
is in a different namespace?
My question: does the check on namespaces in DefinitionImpl make good sense
and is it just a case of bad, bad WSDL or is this a bug? Do I need to change
the WSDL or do I need to change the code?
Wrt the WSDLUtil issues I am currently at a loss; I am not 100% certain
whether it is my code exercising WSDLUtil, the resources I am using it on or
whether we have some genuine bugs in there.

Subject: [bpel-dev] Test case for WSDLUtil.resolveBPELPartnerLinkType bug
Hi Mike,
I tried to send this to you, but the mail keeps bouncing back (maybe it
doesn't like the attachments?), so I am trying to get this to you via the
list.
Maybe it's not a bug and is just due to the resources I am using or due to
the way I exercising the code, but in case it's not, here is what I have
figured out so far.
In its current form, the code in question will throw a NPE. We have
discussed the reasons for that already (it's to do with the bpws:import with
null location, I think).
If I take care of this by catching the exception, like that:
public static PartnerLinkType resolveBPELPartnerLinkType(Definition
definition, QName qname)
{
.
// second for loop
for (Iterator.) {
ImportImpl imp = (ImportImpl) impIterator.next();
try {
imp.importDefinitionOrSchema(); // if (location == null) will throw NPE
when trying to create URI
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
continue;
}
Definition importedDefinition = (Definition) imp.getDefinition();
.
// enter recursion on importedDefinition
.
}
The result will be a StackOverflowException. And the reason for this seems
to be that importedDefinition always represents the BPEL file! It never
actually represents the definition that is being imported (and imp seems to
represent the correct WSDL resource), but just the same resource over and
over again.
I haven't had time to figure out why this happens. Maybe the stack trace
will reveal an answer to you. So far it hasn't for me.
Take care,
-- Bruno
