Empty response from camel in cxf POJO mode - apache-camel

Question

Below is my routing for a sample web service in camel and cxf.
from("cxf:http://localhost:9000/sampleService?serviceClass=com.sample.CommonIntf")
.id("wsProxy")
.bean(MyBean.class)
Simply I am passing input pojo object to bean. And inside bean I am setting the ws response. Here is the bean class.
#Handler
public SOut handle(SInput sin){
SOut s = new SOut();
s.setName(sin.getName());
s.setSurName("aa");
return s;
}
However althoug I can see input object is converted and delivered the handler method soap response is empty.
Here is my web service signature.
public interface CommonIntf{
SOut sampleMethod(SInput input);
}
My question is although my handler returns response, why response soap is empty ?

Answer 1

I think, you just not set exchange output body (request-reply pattern).
Try to modify your route like this:
from("cxf:http://localhost:9000/sampleService?serviceClass=com.sample.CommonIntf")
.id("wsProxy")
.to("bean:MyBean?method=handle");
MyBean class must be registered in bundle context.
<bean id="MyBean" class="com.sample.MyBean"/>

Answer 2

Try the following , define your CXF endpoint
[as per http://camel.apache.org/schema/cxf/ ] in a endpoint definition bean, in this refer the service class,
and refer the same id (for example wsCxfId)in the Camel route.
So the route will be as follows:
from("cxf:bean:wsCxfId")
.id("wsProxy")
.to("bean:MyBean?method=handle");
Hope this helps.
