I'm trying to read XML that is being pushed to my java app. I originally had this in my glassfish server working. The working code in glassfish is as follows:
public class XMLPush implements Serializable
{
public void processXML()
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
BufferedReader br = null;
try
{
br = ((HttpServletRequest)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest()).getReader ();
String s = null;
while((s = br.readLine ()) != null)
{
sb.append ( s );
}
//other code to process xml
...........
.............................
}catch(Exception ex)
{
XMLCreator.exceptionOutput ( "processXML","Exception",ex);
}
....
.....
}//processXML
}//class
It works perfect, but my client is unable to have glassfish on their server. I tried grabbing the raw xml from php, but I couldn't get it to work. I decided to open up a socket and listen for the xml push manually. Here is my code for receiving the push:
public class ListenerService extends Thread
{
private BufferedReader reader = null;
private String line;
public ListenerService ( Socket connection )thows Exception
{
this.reader = new BufferedReader ( new InputStreamReader ( connection.getInputStream () ) );
this.line = null;
}//ListenerService
@Override
public void run ()
{
try
{
while ( (this.line = this.reader.readLine ()) != null)
{
System.out.println ( this.line );
........
}//while
} System.out.println ( ex.toString () );
}
} catch ( Exception ex )
{
...
}//catch
}//run
I haven't done much socket programing, but from what I read for the past week is that passing the xml into a string is bad. What am I doing wrong and why is it that in glassfish server it works, and when I just open a socket myself it doesn't?
this is all that I receive from the push:
PUT /?XML_EXPORT_REASON=ResponseLoop&TIMESTAMP=1292559547 HTTP/1.1
Host: ************************
Accept: */*
Content-Length: 470346
Expect: 100-continue
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
Where did the xml go? Is it because I am placing it in a string? I just need to grab the xml and save it into a file and then process it. Everything else works, but this.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
