Problem using WebService in MAF Application

3836414

Hello to everybody,

I have a problem with Jdeveloper 12.2.1.3.0 working with Mobile Application Framework. I have one web service created with jdeveloper 11g using Business Components (xml request and WSDL).

I need to access the webservice from the MAF application. How I can do that?

In some tutorials I read that i have to create a "data control" and select the soap option, like this:

But in my case, I only get this window:

I can't choose between SOAP or REST, REST is default and unique option.

How I can solve that? Or what is the correct form to use a SOAP (using xml) WebService in MAF?

Kind regards

Hallo 3836414,

Since MAF Version 2.3.0 SOAP-Webservices are deprecated.

SOAP Web Service Data Control

We recommend customers to move to JSON based REST services as they perform much better and are generally much better suited for mobile app consumption. MAF provides a REST Service Adapter and a JSON Bean serialization API with builtin security support to make it easier for customers to use REST services. For Customers who do not have a choice to change the services they should consider mobile middleware or MBaaS products like Oracle Mobile Cloud Service, Oracle API Gateway, etc. to convert the SOAP services to mobile friendly REST services.

Customers using SOAP services to access application data from back-end systems.

Newer releases no longer support SOAP.

Use REST-Webservices.

Best regards

REST data services can be consumed using the Client Data Model https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/maf231/mobile/develop-maf/GUID-5534198C-66A1-4302-A0A1-898867F1919E.htm#ADFMF-GUID-55…   or directly - see the Public Samples in particular WorkBetter.
