WS Client: Set Endpoint Address in JAX-WS Client

Set Endpoint Address in JAX-WS Client

  Example:

1	try {
2	HelloService service = new HelloService (
3	new URL("http://new/endpointaddress?wsdl"),
4	new QName("http://example.org/hello", "HelloService "));
5	} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
6	log.fatal(e);
7	}
8
9	HelloPort proxy = service.getHelloPort();
10	proxy.sayHello("Hello World!");
11

You can use BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY to override endpoint address. One caveat is the original endpoint used to generated the client proxy need to be up, otherwise you'll get a nasty "java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused" exception when instantiating the Service at the first place.

1	//Create service and proxy from the generated Service class.
2	HelloService service = new HelloService();
3	HelloPort proxy = service.getHelloPort();
4
5	Map<String, Object> ctxt = ((BindingProvider)proxy ).getRequestContext();
6	ctxt.put(JAXWSProperties.HTTP_CLIENT_STREAMING_CHUNK_SIZE, 8192);
7	ctxt.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY, "http://new/endpointaddress");
8
9	proxy.sayHello("Hello World!");

Use a local wsdl placed in classpath to create service and port, then set new end point address. This solves the issue that the original wsdl can NOT be be obtained from a live server and the live wsdl has a different service name, for example as a result of service virtualization.

1	HelloService service = new HelloService (
2	this.getClass().getResource("originalHello.wsdl"),
3	new QName("http://example.org/hello", "HelloService "));
4
5	Map<String, Object> ctxt = ((BindingProvider)proxy ).getRequestContext();
6	ctxt.put(JAXWSProperties.HTTP_CLIENT_STREAMING_CHUNK_SIZE, 8192);
7	ctxt.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY, "http://new/endpointaddress");
8
9	proxy.sayHello("Hello World!");
