Problems to build a Java Client to consume a C# WebService

Hello Fellows,

I'm having a big trouble with a WebService written in C#. I made one client in C# and it works fine, I just have to instantiate the objetct CookieContainer and call the Logon method, after this, I can call the other methods with no problems.
But, whit a Java client, I don't have the object cookieContainer. So I can logon sucessufuly, but I can't call any other methods, because I get a error message that I have to logon first, I realize that the error is because I don't have the cookieContainer, so I can't maintain the session with the WebService.

There is some object similar to cookieContainer in Java?

Yes, you need to find a Web service toolkit for Java. Try Google. Netbeans may have the support built in...

Hi,
The client was build in NetBeans. But I don't know how to maintain the session :(

I see what you are getting at. Web services were originally designed to not maintain state. Of course, no one would accept that, so state support has been added in whatever way the server side decided. Apparently, ASP.NET supports state using cookies.

All I can suggest is that you look at the Java Web Services Reference Implementation site. There is support for session state, but I don't know about compatibility with ASP.NET...

Thanks Steve,
I will take a look at it.

Set this code prior to call thing the service:

// Preserve session cookie
((BindingProvider) port).getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.SESS ION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY, Boolean.TRUE);
