 <div class="section"><a name="1__Quick_Start_Guide"></a>
 <h2>1. 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://axis.apache.org/axis2/c/core/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://axis.apache.org/axis2/c/core/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 following sections explain how to
 write
 your first service and client with Axis2/C.</p>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_Hello_Service"></a>
 <h3>1.1 Hello Service</h3>
 <p>Let's see how you can write your first Web service with
 Axis2/C and how to
 deploy it.</p>
 <p>The first service that we are going to write is named "hello"
 with a
 single operation named "greet" in the service. This "greet" operation,
 when
 invoked by the client, will expect the client to send a greeting in the
 request, and in turn send a greeting in the response. Following are
 examples
 of XML payloads exchanged between the client and the service:</p>
 <p>Request:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> &lt;greet&gt;<br /> Hello Service!<br /> &lt;greet&gt;<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Response:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> &lt;greetResponse&gt;<br /> Hello Client!<br /> &lt;greetResponse&gt;<br /></pre>
 </div>
 <br />
 <p>The steps to be followed when implementing a service with
 Axis2/C
 include:</p>
 <ol>
 <li><b>Implement the functions corresponding to the
 operations of the service.</b> <br />
 In our sample, we will have one function that implements the "greet"
 operation. <br />
 We will name that function <code>axis2_hello_greet</code>.</li>
 <li><b>Implement the functions defined by the <code>axis2_svc_skeleton</code>
 interface</b><br />
 <code>axis2_svc_skeleton</code> interface expects the
 functions <code>init</code>, <code>invoke</code>,
 <code>on_fault</code> and <code>free</code>
 to be implemented by our service.<br />
 In our sample, we would implement those and name them as <code>hello_init</code>,
 <code>hello_invoke</code>, <code>hello_on_fault</code>
 and <code>hello_free</code> respectively.<br />
 </li>
 <li><b>Implement the create function, that would create
 an instance of the service skeleton</b><br />
 The create function would create an axis2_svc_skeleton and assign the
 respective function pointers to map the axis2_svc_skeleton interface to
 our interface implementation methods explained in the above step.<br />
 </li>
 <li><b>Implement axis2_get_instance and
 axis2_remove_instance functions</b><br />
 These functions are used to create and destroy service instances by the
 engine, and each service must define these functions.<br />
 </li>
 <li><b>Write the services.xml file for the service</b><br />
 The services.xml file acts as the deployment descriptor file for the
 service. As the bare minimum, we need to configure the service name,
 operations, and the shared library file name containing the service
 implementation in this file.<br />
 As previously decided, we will name the service "hello", the operation
 "greet" and the shared library libhello.so on Linux and hello.dll on MS
 Windows.<br />
 </li>
 </ol>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_1_Operation_Implementation"></a>
 <h3>1.1.1 Operation Implementation</h3>
 <p>Look for the <code>axis2_hello_greet</code>
 function in the <a href="hello/service/hello_svc.c.html">hello_svc.c</a>
 source file.</p>
 <p>This function implements the business logic for the greet
 operation. We
 will be calling this function from our implementation of the invoke
 function.
 Basically, this function receives the request payload as an
 <code>axiom_node</code>, process it to understand the
 request logic, and
 prepares the response as an <code>axiom_node</code> and
 returns that.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_2_Skeleton_Create_Method"></a>
 <h3>1.1.2 Skeleton Create Method</h3>
 <p>Look for the <code>axis2_hello_create</code>
 function in the <a href="hello/service/hello_svc.c.html">hello_svc.c</a>
 source file.</p>
 <p>The create function creates and returns a new
 <code>axis2_svc_skeleton</code> instance. The most
 important aspect to note
 about this function is the function pointer assignments. They are used
 to map
 the interface operations to the corresponding functions of the
 implementation. This is done by assigning the ops member of the service
 skeleton to the address of the ops struct variable.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_3_Invoking_Operation_Implementation"></a>
 <h3>1.1.3 Invoking Operation Implementation</h3>
 <p>The invoke method of the service skeleton is the point of
 entry for
 invoking the operations. Hence in our implementation of the invoke
 function,
 we have to define how the operations are to be called.</p>
 <p>Look for the <code>hello_invoke</code> function
 in the <a href="hello/service/hello_svc.c.html">hello_svc.c</a>
 source file.</p>
 <p>In our implementation of the <code>hello_invoke</code>,
 we call the
 function implementing the greet operation. As we have only one
 operation, the
 task is simple here. If we had multiple operations, we will have to
 look into
 the information in the message context to map it to the exact
 operation. <br />
 The Axis2/C engine will call the invoke method with an
 <code>axiom_node</code>, containing the request payload,
 and
 <code>axis2_msg_ctx</code> instance, containing the message
 context
 information, in addition to the service skeleton and the environment
 pointers. We can use the message context to extract whatever
 information we
 deem necessary that is related to the incoming message. The Axis2/C
 engine
 expects the invoke method to return a pointer to an <code>axiom_node</code>,
 representing the response payload.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_4_Full_Source"></a>
 <h3>1.1.4 Full Source</h3>
 <p>Here is the complete source code for the service : <a href="hello/service/hello_svc.c.html">hello_svc.c</a></p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_5_Service_Descriptor"></a>
 <h3>1.1.5 Service Descriptor</h3>
 <p>The services.xml file contains details on the service that
 would be read
 by the Axis2/C deployment engine during server start up time. The
 following
 shows the contents for the services.xml file for the hello service.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>&lt;service name="hello"&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="ServiceClass" locked="xsd:false"&gt;hello&lt;/parameter&gt;<br /> &lt;description&gt;<br /> Quick start guide hello service sample.<br /> &lt;/description&gt;<br /> &lt;operation name="greet"/&gt;<br />&lt;/service&gt;<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>The service configuration shown above specifies that the name
 of the
 service is hello. <br />
 The value of the "ServiceClass", "hello" in this case, will be mapped
 to the
 service implementation by the deployment engine as libhello.so on Linux
 or
 hello.dll on MS Windows. The description element contains a brief
 description
 of the service. <br />
 There can be one or more operation elements. For this sample, we only
 have
 one operation, with the name "greet".<br />
 </p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_6_Compiling_the_Service"></a>
 <h3>1.1.6 Compiling the Service</h3>
 <p>You can compile the service sample as shown below.</p>
 <p>On Linux:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>gcc -shared -olibhello.so -I$AXIS2C_HOME/include/axis2-1.7.0/ -L$AXIS2C_HOME/lib -laxutil -laxis2_axiom -laxis2_parser -laxis2_engine -lpthread -laxis2_http_sender -laxis2_http_receiver hello_svc.c<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>On MS Windows:</p>
 <p>to compile,</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>cl.exe /D "WIN32" /D "_WINDOWS" /D "_MBCS" /D "AXIS2_DECLARE_EXPORT" /D "AXIS2_SVR_MULTI_THREADED" /w /nologo /I %AXIS2C_HOME%\include /c hello_svc.c<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>to link,</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>link.exe /nologo /LIBPATH:%AXIS2C_HOME%\lib axutil.lib axiom.lib axis2_parser.lib axis2_engine.lib /DLL /OUT:hello.dll *.obj<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_7_Deploying_the_Service"></a>
 <h3>1.1.7 Deploying the Service</h3>
 <p>To make the service available to be consumed by the clients,
 we have to
 deploy the service. To deploy the service, you have to create a folder
 named
 'hello' in the AXIS2C_HOME/services folder, and copy the services.xml
 file
 and the shared library file (libhello.so on Linux or hello.dll on MS
 Windows)
 into that folder.</p>
 <p>To verify that your service has been correctly deployed, you
 can start the
 simple axis server and then browse the list of deployed services using
 a Web
 browser. To start the simple axis server, you can go to the
 AXIS2C_HOME/bin
 folder and run the executable axis2_http_server. The default URL that
 you can
 test the service list with is <a href="http://localhost:9090/axis2/services" class="externalLink" title="External Link">http://localhost:9090/axis2/services</a>.
 You should get an entry for the hello service on the page that is
 displayed.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_1_8_Providing_a_WSDL_for_the_Service"></a>
 <h3>1.1.8 Providing a WSDL for the Service</h3>
 <p>Axis2/C does not support dynamic WSDL generation. However, it
 is possible to attach the contract you used to generate the service
 skeleton, to the respective service. This can be done in two ways.</p>
 <ol>
 <li>Adding the WSDL file to the folder in which the service DLL
 is found.
 </li>
 <li>Providing the path of the WSDL file in the services.xml.
 </li>
 </ol>
 <p>If you choose the first option, you will have to copy the WSDL
 file to the folder in which the service DLL is found. 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. An
 example of the first option in use is seen in the <b>Calculator</b>
 sample service.</p>
 <p>The static WSDL file can be accessed by appending <code>?wsdl</code>
 to the service end-point. You can view the WSDL provided for the
 Calculator sample, by pointing to <a href="http://localhost:9090/axis2/services/Calculator?wsdl" class="externalLink" title="External Link">http://localhost:9090/axis2/services/Calculator?wsdl</a>.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_2_Hello_Client"></a>
 <h3>1.2 Hello Client</h3>
 <p>Now that you know how to write a service with Axis2/C, let's
 see how to
 write a client to consume that service. The request payload that the
 client
 will be sending to the service was described in the previous section.
 The
 client has to prepare the payload, send it to the service, and then
 receive
 and process the response.</p>
 <p>The steps to be followed when implementing a client with
 Axis2/C:</p>
 <ol>
 <li><b>Create the environment to be used by the client.</b>
 <br />
 Each function in Axis2/C takes a pointer to the environment instance
 that encapsulates the memory allocator, error handler, and logging and
 threading mechanisms. The <code>axutil_env_create_all</code>
 method can be used to create a default, ready to use environment
 instance.<br />
 </li>
 <li><b>Create an options instance, and set options</b>.<br />
 The<code> axis2_options</code> struct can be used to set
 the client side options. For example, we can use options to set the
 endpoint address of the service to be consumed by the client.</li>
 <li><b>Create a service client instance, giving the
 client repository folder as a parameter.</b><br />
 The<code> axis2_svc_client</code> struct is meant to be
 used by the users to consume Web services. It provides an easy to use
 API. Service client create method takes the location of the repository
 as a parameter. For the purpose of our sample, you can use the
 AXIS2C_HOME as the repository. The concept of <a href="#repo_folder">repository</a>
 is explained in detail in a later section.<br />
 </li>
 <li><b>Set options to service client instance</b><br />
 The options created in an earlier step have to be set on the service
 client, indicating the options that are meant to be used by the service
 client.<br />
 </li>
 <li><b>Send the request and receive the response</b><br />
 The service client's <code>axis2_svc_client_send_receive</code>
 method can be used to invoke the send receive operation on the service
 client instance.<br />
 The send receive operation takes the request payload as an <code>axiom_node</code>
 and returns the response payload as an <code>axiom_node</code>.</li>
 <li><b>Process the response</b><br />
 Process the response in line with the client business logic.</li>
 </ol>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_2_1_Creating_and_Setting_Options"></a>
 <h3>1.2.1 Creating and Setting Options</h3>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> options = axis2_options_create(env);<br /> address = "http://localhost:9090/axis2/services/hello";<br /> endpoint_ref = axis2_endpoint_ref_create(env, address);<br /> axis2_options_set_to(options, env, endpoint_ref);<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>In the above section of code, an <code>axis2_options</code>
 instance is
 created first. Then an endpoint reference instance is created with the
 address of the location of the service. Finally, the created endpoint
 is set
 as the "to" address of the options. The "to" address indicates where
 the
 request should be sent to.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="1_2_2_Using_Service_Client"></a>
 <h3>1.2.2 Using Service Client</h3>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> svc_client = axis2_svc_client_create(env, client_home);<br /> axis2_svc_client_set_options(svc_client, env, options);<br /> payload = build_om_request(env);<br /> ret_node = axis2_svc_client_send_receive(svc_client, env, payload);<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>After creating and preparing the options, the next step is to
 create a
 service client instance and use it to send the request and receive the
 response. The code fragment given above shows how options can be set on
 top
 of the service client and how to invoke the send receive operation with
 a
 request payload. Once the response is received, the response payload
 will be
 stored in the <code>ret_node</code>, which is a pointer to
 an
 <code>axiom_node</code> that can be used to process the
 response further.</p>

 <h2>2. Repository Folder</h2>
 <p>Repository is a folder where all Axis2/C related
 configurations as well as
 services and modules are located. The following shows the folder
 structure of
 the repository:</p>
 <img src="images/axis2c_repo.gif" alt="" />
 <p>Here the name of the repository folder is axis2c_repo. In your
 system, you
 can specify any folder name of your choice. There are three sub folders
 available in the repository. In addition to that, the axis2.xml
 configuration
 file is also located in the repository. The following table describes
 the
 purpose of the repository contents.</p>
 <table class="bodyTable">
 <caption>Axis2/C Repository Contents</caption><tbody>
 <tr class="b">
 <th>Folder/File Name</th>
 <th>Description</th>
 </tr>
 <tr class="a">
 <td>
 <p>lib</p>
 </td>
 <td>
 <p>The lib folder contains the libraries required to run
 the Axis2/C engine. While you can afford to have the shared libs of
 Axis2/C in a location of your choice, the dynamically loaded shared
 libs, parser, transport receiver and transport sender has to be in the
 repository lib folder. <br />
 It is mandatory that the lib folder is there in the repository.</p>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr class="b">
 <td>
 <p>modules [optional]</p>
 </td>
 <td>
 <p>The modules folder contains the modules deployed with
 Axis2/C. Each module deployed will have its own sub folder inside the
 modules folder. For example, if the addressing module is deployed, then
 there will be a sub folder named addressing inside the modules folder
 of the repository.<br />
 At deployment, the Axis2/C deployment engine would traverse the modules
 folders to find out what modules are available.<br />
 The modules folder is optional. If it is empty or non-existent, that
 means that there are no deployed modules.</p>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr class="a">
 <td>
 <p>services [optional]</p>
 </td>
 <td>
 <p>The services folder contains the services deployed with
 Axis2/C. Each service deployed will have its own sub folder inside the
 services folder, or live inside one of the sub folders.<br />
 At deployment, the Axis2/C deployment engine will traverse the services
 folders to find out what services are available.<br />
 The services folder is optional. If it is empty or non-existent, that
 means that there are no deployed services.</p>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr class="b">
 <td>
 <p>axis2.xml</p>
 </td>
 <td>
 <p>The axis2.xml file is the configuration file of Axis2/C.<br />
 The configuration file is mandatory and must have the name axis2.xml.
 It is safe to consider your Axis2/C repository to be the folder in
 which you have the axis2.xml file.</p>
 </td>
 </tr>
 </tbody>
 </table>
 <p>Both clients as well as the services written using Axis2/C can
 use the
 same repository. However you can use one repository for the server side
 and
 another one for the client side. The services folder is used only when
 the
 repository is used by the server side. When the repository is used by
 the
 client, the services folder, if present, will not be used.</p>
 <p>The Axis2/C binary distribution, when extracted, can be
 considered as
 ready for use as your repository folder. If you are building Axis2/C
 from the
 source distribution, when you build the source, including the samples,
 the
 installation destination will be ready for use as your repository
 folder.</p>
 <p>The simple axis server (that is axis2_http_server binary), the
 client
 samples, and the HTTPD module (Axis2 Apache2 module) require the
 repository
 folder to be specified in order to run correctly.</p>
 <p></p>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="2_1_Module_Folders"></a>
 <h3>2.1 Module Folders</h3>
 <p>As described earlier, all the modules are placed inside the
 modules folder
 of the repository, and each module will have its own sub folder within
 the
 modules folder.<br />
 The folder in which a module is placed must have the same name as the
 module
 name. For example, the addressing module will be placed in a sub folder
 named
 addressing.<br />
 </p>
 <p>Inside the folder corresponding to a module, the shared
 library
 implementing the module and the module configuration file, module.xml,
 is
 placed. It is a must that these two files are present inside each
 folder
 representing a module. The module.xml file will be processed by the
 deployment engine to find out module specific information such as the
 module
 name, set of handlers, the flows into which those handlers are to be
 added,
 etc.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="2_2_Service_Folders"></a>
 <h3>2.2 Service Folders</h3>
 <p>All the services are placed inside the services folder of the
 repository,
 and each service will be in one of the sub folders within the services
 folder. Axis2/C has a concept called service groups, where there can be
 one
 or more services inside a service group. A single stand alone service
 is
 assigned a service group with the same name as that of the service by
 the
 Axis2/C engine for the purpose of easy handling. Therefore the sub
 folders in
 the services folder correspond to the service groups.</p>
 <p>A service, if deployed as a stand alone service, will reside
 inside a
 folder with the same name as that of the service. For example, the echo
 service will be placed in a sub folder named echo. The shared library
 implementing the service and the service configuration file, the
 services.xml, will be placed inside the folder corresponding to a
 service.
 Given the fact that the engine treats the folders to represent service
 groups
 and not a single service, the configuration file is called
 services.xml.
 However, you can always place a single service inside a single folder,
 which
 is the most common use case.</p>
 <p>Each sub folder within the services folder should have at
 least one shared
 lib implementing a service and a services.xml file. If it is a real
 service
 group, there will be multiple shared libs, yet there is only one
 services.xml
 file configuring all those services. The services.xml file is processed
 by

 specific
 information such as the service group name, service name, the set of
 operations for each service, etc.</p>

 <h2>3. Service API</h2>
 <p>We have already seen how to write a service in the Quick Start
 Guide
 section of this manual. This section covers the service API of Axis2/C
 in
 more detail.</p>
 <p><code>axis2_svc_skeleton</code> is an interface.
 Axis2/C does not provide
 any concrete implementation of this interface. It is the responsibility
 of
 the service implementer to implement this interface. To implement the
 interface, you should implement the functions adhering to the function
 pointer signatures of the members of the <code>axis2_svc_skeleton_ops</code>
 struct. Then, a create function should be written to create an
 <code>axis2_svc_skeleton</code> instance, and assign the
 implementing
 functions to the members of the ops member of service skeleton.</p>
 <p>The following table details the signatures of the function
 pointer members
 of the <code>axis2_svc_skeleton</code> struct implemented
 by a service.</p>
 <table class="bodyTable">
 <caption></caption><tbody>
 <tr class="a">
 <th>Function Signature</th>
 <th>Description</th>
 </tr>
 <tr class="b">
 <td>
 <pre>int (AXIS2_CALL *<br /> init)(axis2_svc_skeleton_t *svc_skeleton,<br /> const axutil_env_t *env);</pre>
 </td>
 <td>Initializes the service skeleton object instance. The
 Axis2/C engine initializes a service skeleton instance once per
 deployed service, during the first request made to the service.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr class="a">
 <td width="410">
 <pre>axiom_node_t *(AXIS2_CALL*<br /> invoke )( axis2_svc_skeleton_t *svc_skeli,<br /> const axutil_env_t *env,<br /> axiom_node_t *node,<br /> axis2_msg_ctx_t *msg_ctx);</pre>
 </td>
 <td>Invokes the service implementation. You have to
 implement the logic to call the correct functions in this method based
 on the name of the operation being invoked.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr class="b">
 <td>
 <pre>axiom_node_t *(AXIS2_CALL*<br /> on_fault)(<br /> axis2_svc_skeleton_t *svc_skeli,<br /> const axutil_env_t *env,<br /> axiom_node_t *node);</pre>

 </td>
 <td>Frees the service implementation instance.</td>
 </tr>
 </tbody>
 </table>
 <br />
 <p>There are two more methods that a service should implement.
 Once a service
 is deployed, the message receiver of the Axis2/C engine has to create a
 service instance at run time for the purpose of invoking it. For this,
 it
 looks for a method named <code>axis2_create_instance</code>
 and calls it on
 the service shared library. The engine also looks for a function named
 <code>axis2_remove_instance</code> in the shared library
 for clean up
 purposes.</p>
 <table class="bodyTable">
 <caption></caption><tbody>
 <tr class="b">
 <th>Function Signature</th>
 <th>Description</th>
 </tr>
 <tr class="a">
 <td>
 <pre>AXIS2_EXPORT int<br />axis2_get_instance(<br /> axis2_svc_skeleton_t ** inst,<br /> const axutil_env_t * env);</pre>
 </td>
 <td>Creates an instance of the service. You have to
 implement the logic of creating the service object, allocating memory
 etc. in this method.</td>

 <tr class="b">
 <td width="410">
 <pre>AXIS2_EXPORT int<br />axis2_remove_instance(<br /> axis2_svc_skeleton_t * inst,<br /> const axutil_env_t * env);</pre>
 </td>
 <td>Removes the instance of the service. Do any cleaning-up
 and deallocations here.</td>
 </tr>
 </tbody>
 </table>
 <br />
 <p>Note that service object instantiation happens once per
 service. When the
 first request is received by the service, a service skeleton instance
 is
 created and initialized. The same object instance will be re-used by
 the
 subsequent requests.</p>
 <p>You can find an example on how to implement the service
 skeleton interface
 in the <a href="hello/service/hello_svc.c.html">hello_svc.c</a>
 source file,
 which is the example used in the <a href="#quick_start">Quick
 Start
 Guide</a>. More advanced samples can be found in the samples
 folder of the
 Axis2/C distribution.</p>

 <p><a name="client_api"></a></p>
 </div>
 <div class="section"><a name="4__Client_API"></a>
 <h2>4. Client API</h2>
 <p>The primary client API to be used with Axis2/C is
 <code>axis2_svc_client</code>, the service client API. This
 is meant to be an
 easy to use API for consuming services. If you want to do more complex
 tasks,
 such as invoking a client inside a module, or wrap the client API with
 another interface, you may need to use <code>axis2_op_client</code>,
 the
 operation client API. For most of the use cases, the service client API
 is
 sufficient.</p>
 <p>The behavior of the service client can be fine tuned with the
 options
 passed to the service client. You can set the options by creating an
 <code>axis2_options</code> instance. The bare minimum that
 you need to set is
 the endpoint URI to which the request is to be sent. An example of this
 was
 given in the <a href="#quick_start">Quick Start Guide
 section</a>.</p>
 <p>The service client interface serves as the primary client
 interface for
 consuming services. You can set the options to be used by the service
 client
 and then invoke an operation on a given service. There are several ways
 of
 invoking a service operation. The method of invoking an operation
 depends on
 3 things. They are,</p>
 <ol>
 <li>The Message Exchange Pattern (MEP)</li>
 <li>Synchronous/Asynchronous behavior (Blocking/Non-Blocking)</li>
 <li>Two-way or one-way transport</li>
 </ol>
 <p>Many service operation invocation scenarios can be obtained by
 combining
 the above three factors. The service client interface provides the
 necessary
 API calls to achieve this.</p>
 <p>Deciding the Message Exchange Pattern (MEP)</p>
 <p>There are 2 message exchange patterns.</p>
 <ol>
 <li>Out-Only</li>
 <li>Out-In</li>
 </ol>
 <p>In the Out-Only MEP, the client doesn't expect a reply from
 the server.
 The service client provides two methods of using the Out-Only MEP.</p>

 <h3>4.1 Synchronous vs. Asynchronous Behavior
 (Blocking/Non-Blocking)</h3>
 <p>This will determine whether the client would block for the
 response
 (synchronous) or return immediately expecting the response to be
 handled by a
 callback (asynchronous, in other words non-blocking) in an Out-In MEP
 scenario.<br />
 <code>axis2_svc_client_send_receive</code> operates in
 synchronous mode,

 operates in
 asynchronous mode.<br />

 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="4_2_Two-Way_or_One-Way_Transport"></a>
 <h3>4.2 Two-Way or One-Way Transport</h3>
 <p>If the transport is two-way, then only one channel is used,
 which means
 the request is sent and the response is received on the same channel.
 If the
 transport is one-way, then the request is sent on one channel and the
 response is received on a separate channel.<br />
 If we want to use a separate channel for the response, a separate
 listener
 has to be started to receive the response, This can be done by setting
 the
 separate listener option to True using the
 <code>axis2_options_set_use_separate_listener</code>
 function above the
 options.</p>
 <p>Please have a look at the <code>echo_blocking_dual</code>
 sample to see
 how to set the separate channel option.</p>

 </div>
 </div>
 <div class="section"><a name="5__REST"></a>
 <h2>5. REST</h2>
 <p>Axis2/C comes with plain old XML (POX) like REST support. A
 given service
 can be exposed both as a SOAP service as well as a REST service. By
 default,
 your service will support SOAP as well as REST, however, your service
 operations
 will only be available for SOAP. In order to enable REST for your
 operations you
 need to add one or more parameters under your operation, in the <a href="#appB">services.xml</a>.
 If you want to consume Web services using REST style calls, you can use
 the HTTP
 POST method, the HTTP GET method, the HTTP HEAD method, the HTTP PUT
 method or
 the HTTP DELETE method.<br />
 </p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="5_1_REST_client"></a>
 <h3>5.1 REST on Client Side</h3>
 <p>The following example code fragment shows how to set up a
 client enabling a REST style
 invocation.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>axis2_options_set_enable_rest(options, env, AXIS2_TRUE);<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>You can use the same code that you use with a SOAP call, and
 do REST style
 invocation by just enabling REST using the option setting shown above.</p>
 <p>The default HTTP method used with REST is HTTP POST. If you
 need to change
 it to the HTTP GET method, the following needs to be done.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>axis2_options_set_http_method(options, env, AXIS2_HTTP_GET);<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Similarly you can use AXIX2_HTTP_HEAD to change it to the HTTP
 HEAD method,
 or AXIX2_HTTP_PUT to change it to the HTTP PUT method, or
 AXIX2_HTTP_DELETE to change it
 to the HTTP DELETE method. </p>
 <p>Please have a look at the <code>echo_rest</code>
 sample for a complete
 source code on how to use REST.<br />
 </p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="5_2_REST_server"></a>
 <h3>5.2 REST on Server Side</h3>
 <p>You basically need to add the REST Location, and the REST
 Method parameters to the <a href="#appB">services.xml</a>
 to enable REST in a service operation. The REST location is the
 template that needs to be matched
 to find your operation, and the REST Method is the HTTP Method
 associated with the service.
 Note that the REST Method is optional for each operation. If no REST
 Method is specified, POST,
 will be assumed. Optionally you may specify the default REST Method for
 all operations at the service
 level. Then, if you haven't specified a REST Method for your operation,
 the default REST Method
 specified will be assumed instead of POST. Please have a look at the <code>echo</code>
 sample
 service for a complete source code on how to set up REST. Shown below
 is an example, on how to
 configure the <code>locate</code> operation to work with
 HTTP GET on REST.<br />
 </p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>&lt;operation name="locate"&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="RESTMethod"&gt;GET&lt;/parameter&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="RESTLocation"&gt;location/{lat}/{long}&lt;/parameter&gt;<br />&lt;/operation&gt;<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>The corresponding request would look like, <code>http://www.sample.org/service/location/34N/118W</code>,
 which would return Los Angeles, California. In here, the portion <code>location</code>
 is fixed and <code>lat</code> and <code>long</code>
 are optional parameters which will be captured to the payload.
 <br />
 </p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="5_3_REST_and_SOAP_for_same_operation"></a>
 <h3>5.3 REST and SOAP for Same Operation</h3>
 <p>It is also possible to enable a single service operation for
 SOAP as well as REST. This can be done by specifying a REST Location
 that does not contain the operation name. The <code>locate</code>
 operation is an example to such a case. Thus, for a SOAP invocation,
 you need to use <code>http://www.sample.org/service/locate</code>,
 as the end point or WS-Addressing Action.</p>

 <p><a name="mtom"></a></p>
 </div>
 <div class="section"><a name="6__MTOM"></a>
 <h2>6. MTOM</h2>
 <p>Axis2/C allows you to send and receive binary data with SOAP
 messages
 using MTOM/XOP conventions. When sending and receiving attachments, you
 have
 to use the service client (<code>axis2_svc_client</code>)
 API to perform the
 send and receive operations, and provide or consume binary data in
 relation
 to the AXIOM payloads.</p>
 <p>In order to send a binary attachment, you need to build the
 AXIOM payload
 and attach the data handler with binary content to the payload.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>&lt;soapenv:Body&gt;<br /> &lt;ns1:mtomSample xmlns:ns1="http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/samples/mtom"&gt;<br /> &lt;ns1:fileName&gt;test.jpg&lt;/ns1:fileName&gt;<br /> &lt;ns1:image&gt;<br /> &lt;xop:Include xmlns:xop="http://www.w3.org/2004/08/xop/include" <br /> href="cid:1.f399248e-8b39-1db1-3124-0015c53de2e5@apache.org"&gt;&lt;/xop:Include&gt;<br /> &lt;/ns1:image&gt;<br /> &lt;/ns1:mtomSample&gt;<br />&lt;/soapenv:Body&gt;<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>In the above sample payload shown, we place our image file as
 text within
 an image element</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>image_om_ele = axiom_element_create(env, mtom_om_node, "image", ns1, &amp;image_om_node);<br />data_handler = axiom_data_handler_create(env, image_name, "image/jpeg");<br />data_text = axiom_text_create_with_data_handler(env, image_om_node, data_handler, &amp;data_om_node);<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>When sending attachments, you can configure the client either
 to send the
 attachment in the optimized format or non-optimized format.</p>
 <p>To do this, set the option <code>axis2_options_set_enable_mtom(options,
 env, AXIS2_TRUE);</code>or the setting
 <code>&lt;enableMtom&gt;true&lt;/enableMtom&gt; </code>in
 axis2.xml</p>
 <p>If enableMTOM is set to True, the attachment is sent as it is,
 out of the
 SOAP body, using MIME headers. Also the payload will have an
 XOP:Include
 element, referring to the MIME part that contains the binary
 attachment.
 Sending the attachment as it is, in pure binary format, is called
 binary
 optimized format. In the case of binary non-optimized format, where
 enableMTOM is False, the attachment content is sent in the payload
 itself, as
 a base64 encoded string.</p><h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">6.1 Using MTOM Callbacks</span></h3>Axis2/C
 Can send and receive very large attachments with a very low memory foot
 print. User can specify callbacks to load attachments before sending
 and store attachments while recieving.<br /><h4>6.1.1 Sender side Callback</h4>The attachment can be loaded from any data source. User need to implement the callback using <a href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/axis2/trunk/c/axiom/include/axiom_mtom_sending_callback.h">axiom_mtom_sending_callback.h</a>. A &nbsp;sample Callback can be found <a href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/axis2/trunk/c/samples/mtom_sending_callback/mtom_sending_callback.c">here</a>.

 large attachments users can specify them to be cached either to a file
 or to a any storage. In order to enable caching user should set either "attachmentDir" or "MTOMCachingCallback<span style="font-family: monospace;"></span>"
 parameters in the axis2.xml. If both are set the callback will be used.
 If nothing is set attachment will reside in memory.&nbsp;</p><p>Following is an example of specifying the attachmentDir.</p><p style="font-family: monospace;">&lt;parameter name="attachmentDIR" locked="false"&gt;/path/to/the/dir/&lt;/parameter&gt;</p><p>So the attachments will be saved

The following paramter will enbale the caching callback.</p><p><span style="font-family: monospace;">&lt;parameter name="MTOMCachingCallback" locked="false"&gt;/path/to/the/attachment_caching_callback&lt;/parameter&gt;</span></p>A sample callback implementation can be found <a href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/axis2/trunk/c/samples/mtom_caching_callback/mtom_caching_callback.c">here</a>.<p>Axis2/C
 allows&nbsp;to set the caching threshold. The default is 1MB. For
 example to cache attachments which are greater than 10MB in size user
 need to add the following directive in axis2.xml.</p><p> <span style="font-family: monospace;">&lt;parameter name="MTOMBufferSize" locked="false"&gt;10&lt;/parameter&gt;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: monospace;"></span>This will give the control to the users to use the availbale memory even with larger attachments.</p><p>When the attachment is cached the ultimate receiver can always identify it by calling ,</p><p style="font-family: monospace;">if (axiom_data_handler_get_cached(data_handler, env))<br />{<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /* logic for attachment handling */<br />}</p>

 <div class="section"><a name="7__Engaging_a_Module"></a>
 <h2>7. Engaging a Module</h2>
 <p>A module is a set of handlers that helps to extend the message
 processing
 behavior of the Axis2/C engine. Modules have the concepts of being
 Available
 and Engaged associated with them. Available means modules are deployed
 in the
 system but not activated. They will be activated only after being
 engaged.
 Every module comes with its own module.xml file . This module.xml file
 specifies the module specific handlers and the phases into which the
 handlers
 are to be placed in the handler chain. Some of the module specific
 handlers
 may be put into system predefined phases. In that case, the module.xml
 file
 should specify where to put the handlers relative to the others in that
 phase. Sometimes a module may define its own phase. In that case, some
 of the
 module specific handlers may be put into that phase. The handlers added
 to
 the system predefined phases (global handlers) are invoked for every
 message
 that comes to or goes out from the system. The handlers in the module
 specific phase are invoked only for the messages invoking the
 operations that
 engage that module. Engaging a module means correctly adding the
 handlers of
 a particular module to one or more phases. Once the module is engaged,
 the
 handlers and the operations defined in the module are added to the
 entity
 that engaged them.</p>
 <p>Before engaging a module, the following steps have to be
 followed.</p>
 <ol>
 <li>Write the module.xml file</li>
 <li>Package the module libraries and the module.xml into a
 folder which has the same name as the module</li>
 <li>Deploy the folder in AXIS2C_INSTALL_DIR/modules</li>
 <li>Add the module specific phases in the axis2.xml file</li>
 </ol>
 <p>The following is an example of engaging a sample module called
 the logging
 module with Axis2/C:</p>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="7_1_Writing_the_module_xml_File"></a>
 <h3>7.1 Writing the module.xml File</h3>
 <p>In the module.xml file, the handlers of the module and the
 phases to which
 they are to be added have to be specified. Below is the module.xml file
 of
 the sample logging module.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> &lt;module name="logging" class="axis2_mod_log"&gt;<br /> &lt;inflow&gt;<br /> &lt;handler name="LoggingInHandler" class="axis2_mod_log"&gt;<br /> &lt;order phase="PreDispatch"/&gt;<br /> &lt;/handler&gt;<br /> &lt;/inflow&gt;<br /> &lt;outflow&gt;<br /> &lt;handler name="LoggingOutHandler" class="axis2_mod_log"&gt;<br /> &lt;order phase="MessageOut"/&gt;<br /> &lt;/handler&gt;<br /> &lt;/outflow&gt;<br /> &lt;Outfaultflow&gt;<br /> &lt;handler name="LoggingOutHandler" class="axis2_mod_log"&gt;<br /> &lt;order phase="MessageOut"/&gt;<br /> &lt;/handler&gt;<br /> &lt;/Outfaultflow&gt;<br /> &lt;/module&gt;<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>In the above shown module configuration file, the name of the
 module is
 logging. There are two handlers in this module, the LoggingInHandler
 and the
 LoggingOutHandler. The LoggingInHandler is placed into the PreDispatch
 phase
 of the in flow. The LoggingOutHandler is placed into the MessageOut
 phase of
 both the out flow and the fault out flow.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="7_2_Packaging_and_Deploying_the_Module"></a>
 <h3>7.2 Packaging and Deploying the Module</h3>
 <p>The above module.xml file should be copied to a folder named
 "logging"
 (because the module name is "logging") inside the
 AXIS2C_INSTALL_DIR/modules
 folder. The module libraries containing the handler implementation
 should
 also be copied to the same folder. According to the module.xml file
 shown
 above, the name of the shared library file should be
 libaxis2_mod_log.so on
 Linux and axis2_mod_log.dll on MS Windows.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="7_3_Adding_Module_Specific_Phases_to_the_axis2_xml_File"></a>
 <h3>7.3 Adding Module Specific Phases to the axis2.xml File</h3>
 <p>Module specific phases have to be added after the system
 predefined
 phases. The following example shows where to add the module specific
 phases.
 Look for the <code>phaseOrder</code> elements in the
 axis2.xml file. Note the
 comment lines:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> &lt;!-- User defined phases could be added here --&gt;</pre>
 </div>
 <p>You can add user defined phases after the above comment line
 into any of the
 flows. The <code>type</code> attribute of the <code>phaseOrder</code>
 element
 indicates the flow.
 </p>
 <p>For the logging module example, user defined phases are not
 required. All
 the module specific handlers are added to system predefined phases as
 specified in the module.xml file.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="7_4_Engaging_a_Module_to_a_Services"></a>
 <h3>7.4 Engaging a Module to a Services</h3>
 <p>The following is an example of engaging the logging module to
 the echo
 service. This can be done by simply adding <code>&lt;module
 ref
 ="logging"/&gt;</code> in the services.xml file of the echo
 service. This
 informs the Axis2/C engine that the module "logging" should be engaged
 for
 this service. The handlers inside the module will be executed in their
 respective phases as described by the module.xml.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> &lt;service name="echo"&gt;<br /> &lt;module ref ="logging"/&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="ServiceClass" locked="xsd:false"&gt;echo&lt;/parameter&gt;<br /> &lt;description&gt;<br /> This is a testing service, to test if the system is working or not.<br /> &lt;/description&gt;<br /> &lt;operation name="echoString"&gt;<br /> &lt;!--messageReceiver class="axis2_receivers" /--&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="wsamapping" &gt;<br /> http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/samples/echoString<br /> &lt;/parameter&gt;<br /> &lt;/operation&gt;<br /> &lt;/service&gt;<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>One important thing to note here is that because the logging
 module's
 handlers are placed into the global phases, even though the logging
 module is
 engaged only to the echo service, the module will be engaged globally.
 This
 is a feature of the Axis2 architecture, not a bug. When invoked, the
 handlers
 in a module can check whether the module has been engaged to a
 particular
 service, and act accordingly.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="7_4_1_Engaging_a_Module_Globally"></a>
 <h3>7.4.1 Engaging a Module Globally</h3>
 <p>If we want to engage a module for every service deployed in
 the Axis2/C
 system, we can add the <code>&lt;module ref
 ="logging"/&gt;</code> entry in
 the axis2.xml file. This will inform the Axis2/C engine to invoke the
 handlers associated with the module for every message coming in or
 going out
 for all the services deployed.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="7_5_Engaging_a_Module_on_the_Client_Side"></a>
 <h3>7.5 Engaging a Module on the Client Side</h3>
 <p>On the client side, if <code>&lt;module ref
 ="logging"/&gt;</code> is
 added in the axis2.xml, the handlers specific to the logging module
 will be
 invoked for every request the client sends and every response the
 client
 receives. If only a particular client wants to engage the module, it
 can be
 done by engaging the module programmatically. This can be done by
 adding the
 following line in the client code after setting the options.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>axis2_svc_client_engage_module(svc_client, env, "module-name");<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Remember to replace "module-name" with the name of the module
 you want to
 engage. For example to engage the logging module you can use:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>axis2_svc_client_engage_module(svc_client, env, "logging");<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>

 </div>
 <div class="section"><a name="8__WS-Addressing"></a>
 <h2>8. WS-Addressing</h2>
 <p><a href="http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/addr/" class="externalLink" title="External Link">WS-Addressing</a>
 provides
 mechanisms to address Web services and messages. With Axis2/C, you can
 use
 both WS-Addressing <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/ws-addr-core/" class="externalLink" title="External Link">version
 1.0</a> as well as the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Submission/ws-addressing/" class="externalLink" title="External Link">submission
 version</a>.</p>
 <p>WS-Addressing is implemented as a module in Axis2/C. 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>&lt;module ref="addressing"/&gt;</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>

 <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 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. Then that struct instance has to be assigned to the ops
 member of
 an <code>axis2_module</code> struct instance.</p>
 <p><a href="mod_log/mod_log.c.html">mod_log.c</a>
 has the source for the
 logging module. Please have a look at the <code>axis2_mod_log_create</code>
 function in it to see how an <code>axis2_module</code>
 instance is allocated
 and how the ops are initialized.</p>
 <p>The<code> axis2_mod_log_fill_handler_create_func_map</code>
 function adds
 the handler create functions to the module's hash map, which stores the
 handler create functions. In the <a href="mod_log/mod_log.c.html">mod_log.c</a>
 example, the logging module adds
 two handlers. The in handler and the out handler that deals with
 logging
 along with the in-flow and out-flow respectively.</p>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="9_1_Writing_Handlers"></a>
 <h3>9.1 Writing Handlers</h3>
 <p>A handler is the smallest unit of execution in the Axis2/C
 engine's
 execution flow. The engine can have two flows, the in-flow and the
 out-flow.
 A flow is a collection of phases, and a phase in turn is a collection
 of
 handlers. A handler is invoked when the phase within which it lives is
 invoked. Axis2/C defines an interface called <code>axis2_handler</code>,
 which is to be implemented by all the handlers.</p>
 <p><a href="mod_log/log_in_handler.c.html">log_in_handler.c</a>
 contains the
 source code of the in-handler of the logging module. Please have a look
 at
 the <code>axutil_log_in_handler_create</code> function to
 see how an
 <code>axis2_handler</code> instance is created and how the
 invoke function
 implementation, <code>axis2_log_in_handler_invoke</code>
 is assigned to the
 <code>axis2_handler</code> invoke function pointer. The
 invoke is called to
 do the actual work assigned to the handler. The phase that owns the
 handler
 is responsible for calling the invoke function of the handler.</p>
 <p><a href="mod_log/log_out_handler.c.html">log_out_handler.c</a>
 contains
 the source code of the out handler of the logging module. The
 implementation
 is similar to the in handler, except that it is placed along the
 out-flow
 when deployed.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="9_2_Writing_the_module_xml_File"></a>
 <h3>9.2 Writing the module.xml File</h3>
 <p>After writing the module, the module.xml file should be
 written. The
 module.xml file contains all the configuration details for a particular
 module. Please see the sample <a href="mod_log/module.xml">module.xml</a>
 file for the logging module.</p>

 <h3>11.1 Linux Platform</h3>
 <p>To build Axis2/C with the Apache HTTP server module, also
 called
 mod_axis2, you need to provide the following configuration options on
 the
 Linux platform:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>./configure --with-apache2=[path to Apache2 include directory] [other configure options]<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p><font color="#666666">NOTE: Some Apache2
 distributions, specially
 development versions, install APR (Apache Portable Run-time) include
 files in
 a separate location. In that case, to build mod_axis2, use:</font></p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>./configure --with-apache2=[path to Apache2 include directory] --with-apr=[path to APR include directory]<br /> [other configure options]<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Then build the source tree as usual using:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre> make<br /> make install<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>This will install mod_axis2.so into your
 AXIS2C_INSTALL_DIR/lib folder.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="11_2_MS_Windows_Platform"></a>
 <h3>11.2 MS Windows Platform</h3>
 <p>On the MS Windows platform, you have to provide the Apache2
 install
 location in the configure.in file with the setting APACHE_BIN_DIR.
 Example:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>APACHE_BIN_DIR = "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2"<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Based on the Apache HTTP server version you are using, you
 also need to
 set the setting APACHE_VERSION_2_0_X in the configure.in file. If
 you are
 using Apache 2.2 family, this setting should be set to 0,else set it to
 1.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>APACHE_VERSION_2_0_X = 0<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>To build the source, you have to run the command</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>nmake axis2_apache_module</pre>
 </div>
 <p>This will build mod_axis2.dll and copy it to
 AXIS2C_INSTALL_DIR\lib directory.

 </div>
 <p>Please note that you have to fine tune the above settings to
 mach your
 system.<br />
 <br />
 MOD_AXIS2_SO_PATH has to be replaced with the full path to
 mod_axis2.so,
 for example, <code>/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_axis2.so</code>
 on Linux, or <code>C:\Apache2\modules\mod_axis2.so</code>
 on MS Windows<br />
 <br />
 AXIS2C_INSTALL_DIR has to be replaced with the full path to Axis2/C
 repository, for example, <code>/usr/local/axis2</code> on
 Linux, or <code>c:\axis2c</code> on MS Windows. Note that
 repository path should
 have read access to the daemon user account under which the Apache2
 HTTPD
 process is run.<br />
 <br />
 PATH_TO_LOG_FILE has to be replaced with the full path to where you
 wish to
 have the Axis2/C log file, for example, <code>/tmp/axis2.log</code>
 on Linux, or <code>C:\Apache2\logs\axis2.log</code> on MS
 Windows. Note that the log
 file path should have write access to the daemon user account under
 which the
 Apache2 HTTPD process is run.<br />
 <br />
 LOG_LEVEL has to be replaced with one of the following values: crit,
 error,
 warn, info, debug, trace. These log levels have the following meanings:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>crit - log critical errors</li>
 <li>error - log errors and above</li>
 <li>warn - log warnings and above</li>
 <li>info - log information and above</li>
 <li>debug - log debug information and above, this is the
 default log level used</li>
 <li>user - log user level messages and above</li>
 <li>trace - log trace messages and above</li>
 </ul>
 <p>SIZE_IN_MB must be replaced by the size of the particular
 resource in MB, rounded to
 the nearest whole value.<br />
 <br />
 PREFIX has to be replaced with the prefix to be used with the service
 endpoints. This is optional and defaults to "services".
 As an example, if you have "web_services" as the prefix, then all the
 services hosted would have the endpoint prefix of : <br />
 http://localhost/axis2/web_services <br />
 If you wish, you can also change the location as well by replacing
 "/axis2" in &lt;Location /axis2&gt; setting with whatever you
 wish.
 </p>
 <p><font color="#666666">NOTE: If you want to use a
 Shared Global Pool with Apache
 you have to give another entry called Axis2GlobalPoolSize.You have to
 give the
 size of the shared global pool in MB.If you doesn't set the value or if
 you set a
 negative value Apache module doesn't create shared global pool.</font></p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>Axis2GlobalPoolSize SIZE_IN_MB<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>To ensure that everything works fine, start Apache2 (restart
 if it is
 already running) and test whether the mod_axis2 module is loaded
 correctly by
 accessing the URL: <a href="http://localhost/axis2/services" class="externalLink" title="External Link">http://localhost/axis2/services</a>.<br />
 </p>
 <p>This should show the list of services deployed with Axis2/C.
 Then you
 should be able to run clients against this endpoint. Example:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>echo http://localhost/axis2/services/echo<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>In case things are not working as expected, here are some tips
 on how to
 troubleshoot:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Double check the steps you followed in installing and
 configuring mod_axis2. Check if the locations given in httpd.conf are
 correct, and also check the folder permissions.</li>
 <li>Have a look at the axis2.log file for clues as to what is
 going wrong. You can set the log level to debug, user or trace to
 gather more information</li>
 <li>In case the axis2.log file is not written at all, there is
 a good chance that mod_axis2 is crashing. You can have a look at the
 error.log file of Apache2 to get an idea on what is going wrong. This
 file is usually placed in the APACHE_INSTALL_DIR/logs folder.</li>

 <div class="section"><a name="12__Deploying_with_Microsoft_IIS_Server"></a>
 <h2>12. Deploying with Microsoft IIS Server</h2>
 <p>Use the Axis2/C VC project or makefile to buid the
 component. If you are using the makefile to build the source, you have
 to run the command</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>nmake axis2_iis_module</pre>
 </div>
 <p>In this document I assume that the mod_axis2_IIS.dll
 is in the directory <code>c:\axis2c\lib</code> and
 AXIS2C_HOME
 is <code>c:\axis2c</code></p>
 <p>Add the following key to the
 registery.</p>
 <p><code>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Axis2c\IIS
 ISAPI
 Redirector</code></p>
 <p>Add a string value with the name <code>AXIS2C_HOME</code>
 and a
 value of <code>c:\axis2c</code></p>
 <p>Add a string value with the name <code>log_file</code>
 and a value
 of <code>c:\axis2c\logs\axis2.log</code></p>
 <p>Add a string value with the name <code>log_level</code>.
 The value
 can be either <code>trace</code>, <code>error</code>,
 <code>info</code>, <code>critical</code>, <code>user</code>,
 <code>debug</code>, or <code>warning</code>.</p>
 <p>
 You can add a string value with the name <code>services_url_prefix</code>. This is optional and defaults to "/services".
 As an example, if you have "/web_services" as the prefix, then all the
 services hosted would have the endpoint prefix of : <br />
 http://localhost/axis2/web_services.<br />Note: don't forget the / at the begining.<br />
 </p>
 <p>
 If you wish, you can also change the location as well by adding a string value with the name <code>axis2_location</code>. This is also optional and defaults to /axis2.
 If you have /myserser as the value you can access your web services with a url like http://localhost/myserver/services. <br />Note: Don't forget the / at the beginning.</p>
 <p>

 </p><p>Now you can do all the registry editing using the JScript file
 axis2_iis_regedit.js provided with the distribution. When you build
 axis2/C with the IIS module the file is copied to the root directory of
 the binary distribution. Just double click it and everything will be
 set to the defaults. The axis2c_home is taken as the current directory,
 so make sure you run the file in the Axis2/C repository location (or
 root of the binary distribution). If you want to change the values you
 can manually edit the the .js file or give it as command line arguments
 to the script when running the script. To run the jscript from the
 command line use the command <code>:\cscript axis2_iis_regedit.js optional arguments</code>. We recomend the manual editing as it is the easiest way to specify the values.</p>
 <p><b>IIS 5.1 or Below</b></p>
 Using the IIS management console, add a new virtual
 directory to your IIS/PWS web site. The name of the virtual directory
 must be <code>axis2</code>. Its
 physical path should be the directory in which you placed
 mod_axis2_IIS.dll (in our example it is
 c:\axis2c\lib). When creating this new virtual directory, <b>assign
 execute access to it</b>.
 <p>By using the IIS management console, add
 mod_axis2_IIS.dll as a filter in your IIS/PWS web site and restart the
 IIS
 admin service.</p>
 <p><b>IIS 6 &amp; 7</b></p>
 Using the IIS management console, add the mod_axis2_IIS.dll as a
 Wildcard Script Map.
 <ul>
 <li>Executable should be the complete path to the
 mod_axis2_IIS.dll</li>
 <li>You can put any name as the name of the Wildcard Script Map</li>
 </ul>
 <p>Please don't add the mod_axis2_IIS.dll as a filter to IIS as
 in the IIS 5.1 case.</p>
 <p>Note: If the Axis2/C failed to load, verify that Axis2/C and
 its dependent DLLs are in the System Path (not the user path). </p>

 by configuring Axis2/C with the <code>--with-openssl=[path to Openssl installation directory]</code>
 option.</p>
 <p>Example <code><br />
 %./configure --with-openssl=/opt/openssl --prefix=${AXIS2C_HOME}/deploy<br />
 %make<br />
 %make install<br />
 </code></p>
 <p>On MS Windows, set <code>ENABLE_SSL=1</code> in
 the
 <code>configure.in</code> file and run the <code>nmake
 all</code> command.</p>
 <p><a name="client_chain"></a></p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="13_1_1_Creating_the_Client_Certificate_Chain_File"></a>
 <h3>13.1.1 Creating the Client Certificate Chain File</h3>
 <p>If you need SSL client authentication, Axis2/C requires you to
 provide the
 client certificate and the private key file in a single file. Such a
 file
 which contains both the certificate and relevant private key is called
 a
 certificate chain file. Creating such a file is very easy. Assume that
 the
 client certificate is stored in a file named <code>client.crt</code>
 and the
 private key is stored in a file named <code>client.key</code>.
 Then the
 certificate chain file can be created by concatenating the certificate
 file
 and the private key file in that order, in to another file, say
 <code>client.pem</code>.</p>
 <p>On Linux you can do this as follows: <code>%cat
 client.crt client.key &gt;
 client.pem</code></p>
 <p>On MS Windows, you can do this by copying the contents of
 client.crt and
 client.key files and saving them in a file named client.pem using
 Notepad.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="13_1_2_Configuration"></a>
 <h3>13.1.2 Configuration</h3>
 <p>Uncomment the following in <code>axis2.xml</code>
 to enable https transport receiver and https transport sender.
 Axis2/C will then be able to recognize the "https" sheme in a given end
 point reference (EPR) and use SSL transport.
 </p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>&lt;transportReceiver name="https" class="axis2_http_receiver"&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="port" locked="false"&gt;6060&lt;/parameter&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="exposeHeaders" locked="true"&gt;false&lt;/parameter&gt;<br />&lt;/transportReceiver&gt;<br /></pre>
 </div>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>&lt;transportSender name="https" class="axis2_http_sender"&gt;<br /> &lt;parameter name="PROTOCOL" locked="false"&gt;HTTP/1.1&lt;/parameter&gt;<br />&lt;/transportSender&gt;<br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>For the SSL client to work, the file containing the CA
 certificate should
 be given as <code>SERVER_CERT</code> parameter in the
 axis2.xml file. If you
 need client authentication, you can also set the parameters in the
 axis2.xml
 file to specify the client certificate, private key, and the passphrase
 for
 the client private key. Parameter names for these are:</p>
 <p><code>KEY_FILE</code> - certificate chain file
 containing the client's
 certificate and the private key (Please refer to the <a href="#client_chain">creating the client certificate chain
 file</a>
 section)<br />
 <code>SSL_PASSPHRASE</code> - passphrase used to encrypt
 the private key
 file.</p>
 <p>Example:</p>
 <p><code>&lt;parameter
 name="SERVER_CERT"&gt;/path/to/ca/certificate&lt;/parameter&gt;</code><br />
 <code>&lt;parameter
 name="KEY_FILE"&gt;/path/to/client/certificate/chain/file&lt;/parameter&gt;</code><br />
 <code>&lt;</code><code><code>parameter
 name="SSL_</code>PASSPHRASE"&gt;passphrase&lt;/parameter&gt;</code></p>
 <p>For testing purposes, you can use the server's certificate
 instead of the
 CA certificate. You can obtain this by running the command <code>openssl
 s_client -connect &lt;servername&gt;:&lt;port&gt;</code>
 and copying the
 portion of the output bounded by and including:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----<br />-----END CERTIFICATE-----<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>On Linux, if you run the following piece of code, the server
 certificate
 will be saved to a file <code>cert.pem</code>:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>echo |\<br />openssl s_client -connect &lt;servername&gt;:&lt;port&gt; 2&gt;&amp;1 |\<br />sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' &gt; cert.pem<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p><font color="#666666">NOTE: Instead of setting
 these parameters in the <code>axis2.xml</code>
 file, you can also set these parameters programmatically in your client
 code.</font></p>
 </div>

 <h2>17. WSDL2C Tool</h2>
 <p>WSDL2C tool that comes with Axis2/Java supports the generation
 of Axis2/C
 stubs and skeletons for WSDL files. This is a Java tool that can be
 used to
 generate C code that works with Axis2/C API. You should use <a href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/axis/axis2/java/core/trunk" class="externalLink" title="External Link">Axis2/Java
 SVN</a> revision 529533 or later revisions. You can download the <a href="http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/download.cgi" class="externalLink" title="External Link">Axis2/Java latest
 release</a> and use those binaries to generate the code. Check out a <a href="http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/reference.html#wsdl2java" class="externalLink" title="External Link">basic
 guide</a> on the Java tool.</p>
 <p>Before you run the tool, make sure that all the .jar library
 files that
 come with Axis2/Java are added to the CLASSPATH environment variable.
 </p>
 <p>
 <em>Note: You can use the WSDL2C.sh or WSDL2C.bat that shipped with the axis2/c binaries
 (inside the &lt;axis2_src_dir&gt;/bin/tools/wsdl2c directory) to run the tool.
 The README comes in the directory guide you how to use that scripts.</em></p>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="17_1_Generating_Service_Skeletons"></a>
 <h3>17.1 Generating Service Skeletons</h3>
 <p>The tool can be run with the following parameters and generate
 the service
 skeleton and other required files with ADB (Axis Data Binding) support.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>java org.apache.axis2.wsdl.WSDL2C -uri interoptestdoclitparameters.wsdl -ss -sd -d adb -u <br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>To understand the meanings of the options used with the tool,
 please have
 a look at the <a href="http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/reference.html#wsdl2java" class="externalLink" title="External Link"> Java tool
 documentation</a>.</p>
 <p>If you need an XML in/out programming model, you can just
 ignore the data
 binding support. To generate code with no data binding support, just
 replace
 <code>-d adb -u</code>, that was used in a previous
 command, with <code>-d
 none</code>.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>java org.apache.axis2.wsdl.WSDL2C -uri interoptestdoclitparameters.wsdl -ss -sd -d none<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>The WSDL file, <code>interoptestdoclitparameters.wsdl</code>,
 used in the
 above command examples can be found in
 &lt;axis2_src_dir&gt;/test/resources
 directory.</p>
 <p>Once the code is generated, you have to implement the business
 logic for
 the service. For this, locate the skeleton source file from the
 generated
 files. To identify the locations where you can place your business
 logic in
 line with the operations defined in the WSDL file that you used to
 generate
 code, look for the comment lines:</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>/* Todo fill this with the necessary business logic */</pre>
 </div>
 <p>You can also go through the generated header files and
 understand the API in
 line with the WSDL file that you used to generate the code.
 </p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="17_2_Generating_Client_Stubs"></a>
 <h3>17.2 Generating Client Stubs</h3>
 <p>The WSDL2C code generator tool provides support for generating
 client
 stubs as well. You can generate the required stubs from a given WSDL
 with the
 other supporting files. Use following parameters to generate the
 Axis2/C
 client stub code with ADB support.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>java WSDL2C -uri interoptestdoclitparameters.wsdl -d adb -u<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>In order to ignore the data binding support and use a raw XML
 in/out
 model, just use the following parameters.</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>java WSDL2C -uri interoptestdoclitparameters.wsdl -d none<br /><br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Like in the case of service skeletons, you have to fill in the
 business
 logic as required in the client stubs as well. To do this, go through
 the
 header files generated and understand the API in line with the WSDL
 file that
 you used to generate the code.</p>

 <h2>20. Archive Based Deployment</h2>
 <p>Axis2/C supports two main deployment models,<br />
 </p>
 <ol>
 <li>Directory Based Deployment</li>
 <li>Archive Based Deployment</li>
 </ol>
 Our discussion in this section focuses on how to setup and use archive
 based deployment in Axis2/C. By default, Axis2/C may be built without
 enabling archive based deployment. Therefore, first and foremost you
 will have to most probably rebuild from source.
 <p>Also, it is requirement that you have zlib. Most Linux systems
 do have zlib by default, but would require zlib development packages.
 More information can be found <a href="http://www.zlib.net/">here</a>.
 For MS Windows systems, you can download it from <a href="http://www.zlatkovic.com/pub/libxml">here</a>.</p>
 <p>Next, you will have to build Axis2/C enabling Archive Based
 Deployment. On Linux, you need to set the <code>--with-archive=[path_to_zlib_headers]</code></p>
 <p>Example: <code><br />
 %./configure --with-archive=/usr/include/ --prefix=${AXIS2C_HOME}/deploy<br />
 %make<br />
 %make install<br />
 </code></p>
 <p>On MS Windows, set <code>WITH_ARCHIVE = 1</code>
 in the
 <code>configure.in</code> file and run the <code>nmake
 all</code> command. Please note that you have to specify the
 directory where you can find the zlib binary, for a MS Windows system.
 This can be done by setting the <code>ZLIB_BIN_DIR</code>
 in the
 <code>configure.in</code> file.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="19_1_Deploying_Services"></a>
 <h3>20.1 Deploying Services</h3>
 <p>Once you have successfully completed the installation, you
 will have to deploy services as archives in order to make use of this
 deployment model. Please note that directory based deployment can
 coexist with the archive based deployment model. Therefore, you can
 alternatively use either of the two.</p>
 <p></p>
 <p>You will merely have to add your existing service libraries
 and the services.xml file into an archive. For example, in order to
 deploy the sample echo service as an archive, you can zip the echo
 folder found in the <code>AXIS2C_BIN_DIR/services</code>
 directory. You can optionally rename your zip file, to have the <code>.aar</code>
 extension.</p>
 <p>Please note that all such services deployed as archives should
 also be placed inside the <code>AXIS2C_BIN_DIR/services</code>
 directory. Now, when ever you start your Simple Axis2 Server, or any
 Axis2/C module attached to any other server, your services deployed as
 archives, will also get loaded.
 </p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="19_2_Deploying_Modules"></a>
 <h3>20.2 Deploying Modules</h3>
 <p>Similar to services, you also can deploy modules as archives.
 You also can optionally rename your zip files to have the extension, <code>.mar</code>
 as in service archives.</p>
 <p>Your module archives must be placed in the <code>AXIS2C_BIN_DIR/modules</code>
 directory.</p>
 </div>
 <div class="subsection"><a name="19_3_Known_Issues"></a>
 <h3>20.3 Known Issues</h3>
 <p>Please note that there are a few known issues when running
 archive based deployment, mainly on Linux based systems.<br />
 </p>
 <ul>
 <li>If you want to run both client and server from same
 respository, assign super-user privilideges for your server in order to
 prevent un-zipped files getting overwritten, which will in return cause
 a segmentation fault on your server.
 <p></p>
 </li>
 <li>Please make sure that the application you choose to create
 archives preserves executable rights, and symbolic links of libraries
 that are found inside the archive, once unzipped.</li>
 </ul>

 <p><a name="tcpmon"></a></p>
 </div>
 </div>
 <div class="section"><a name="20__TCPMon_Tool"></a>
 <h2>21. TCPMon Tool</h2>
 <p>TCPMon is a TCP Monitor tool provided by Axis2/C for
 monitoring payloads exchanged between client and server. If you are
 using a source distribution, this may or may not be built for you by
 default. Thus, to get started, you may require building it from source.</p>
 <p>On Linux</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>	./configure --prefix=${AXIS2C_HOME} --enable-tests=no<br />	make<br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>On MS Windows</p>
 <div class="source">
 <pre>	nmake tcpmon<br /></pre>
 </div>
 <p>Please note that in most Linux based installations, this will
 most probably be built for you. Once you've done with the building
 process, you can find the executable at <code>${AXIS2C_HOME}/bin/tools</code>
 on Linux, or at <code>%AXIS2C_HOME%\bin\tools</code> on MS
 Windows.</p>
 <p>By default, the TCPMon tool will listen on port <b><code>9090</code></b>
 and reply to port <b><code>8080</code></b>.
 The default target host will be <b><code>localhost</code></b>
 and <b><code>tcpmon_traffic.log</code></b>
 will be the default log_file. If you want to change any of these
 settings run ./<code>tcpmon -h</code> on Linux, or <code>tcpmon.exe
 -h</code> on MS Windows for more information.</p>
 <p>The TCPMon tool does depend on the Axis2/C Util, Axis2/C AXIOM
 and Axis2/C Parser libraries. Thus, if you want to use TCPMon to
 monitor payloads in any other message transfer, independant of the
 Axis2/C engine, you will have to build those dependant libraries too.
 In addition to that, TCPMon does not depend on the Axis2/C Core and
 installing the Axis2/C engine is not always a pre-requisite to run
 TCPMon.
