Introduction to the SOA Order Booking Application and the Tutorial
This chapter describes the components of the SOA Order Booking application, and the requirements for creating and running it. This chapter contains the following sections:

Section 1.1, "What Does the SOA Order Booking Application Do?" Section 1.2, "Flow of the Application" Section 1.3, "Software Required for Creating and Running the Application" Section 1.4, "Contents of the SOADEMO Schema" Section 1.5, "How This Tutorial Is Organized" Section 1.6, "Technologies and Techniques Used in Each Project"

1.1 What Does the SOA Order Booking Application Do?

Run by a fictitious company called "Global Company", the SOA Order Booking application processes orders placed by customers. The application routes each order to two suppliers, Select Manufacturer and Rapid Service, to get quotes. The application chooses the supplier that provided the lower quote to fulfill the order. To invoke the SOA Order Booking application, Global Company provides customers with a web front-end application called the SOADemo-Client application. The SOADemo-Client application enables customers to browse products and place their orders. This web front-end application is built using Application Development Framework (ADF) technology. When the customer places an order using the SOADemo-Client application, the client application invokes the SOA Order Booking application. The SOA Order Booking application consists of different projects, each of which performs a specific function. The entry point to the SOA Order Booking application is the OrderBookingESB project. This project invokes the SOAOrderBooking project, which is a Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) project that orchestrates all the services needed by the SOA Order Booking application. For more information on projects in the application, see Section 1.6, "Technologies and Techniques Used in Each Project". The SOA Order Booking application contains two types of projects:

Projects that provide services. These projects include CustomerService, CreditService, SelectManufacturer, and RapidService. The services offered by these

Flow of the Application

projects are implemented as web services so that they can be invoked by different types of clients. For example, the CustomerService project is invoked by the SOADemo-Client application and also by the SOAOrderBooking BPEL project.

Projects that define the flow of action in the application. These projects use the ESB (Enterprise Service Bus) or the BPEL technologies. These projects include OrderBookingESB, FulfillmentESB, and SOAOrderBooking, and they invoke the projects that provide services. They can also invoke other BPEL and ESB project. For example, the OrderBookingESB project invokes the SOAOrderBooking project (which is a BPEL project), and the SOAOrderBooking project invokes the FulfillmentESB project.

Table 11 provides a short description of the projects in the SOA Order Booking application.
Table 11 Project OrderBookingESB Projects in the SOA Order Booking Application Description Provides the starting point for the SOA Order Booking application. The SOADemo-Client application invokes OrderBookingESB, which invokes SOAOrderBooking, which invokes everything else. Defines the main flow of the application. It invokes all the web services and performs the appropriate actions based on the results. Provides web services for looking up existing customers in the database, and for adding new customers. Provides web services for checking whether or not a customers credit card is valid. Provides price quote for orders. This is one of the suppliers. Provides price quote for orders. This is another supplier. Determines how an order is to be shipped based on the dollar amount of the order.

SOAOrderBooking

CustomerService CreditService SelectManufacturer RapidService FulfillmentESB

In addition to the SOA Order Booking application and its projects, this tutorial also describes the SOADemo-Client application, which is the web front-end to the SOA Order Booking application.

1.2 Flow of the Application

This section describes the order in which the projects are invoked.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

When a customer places an order using the SOADemo-Client application, this action invokes the OrderBookingESB project. The OrderBookingESB project invokes the SOAOrderBooking project, which defines the main flow of the SOA Order Booking application. The SOAOrderBooking project inserts the order information in the database. The SOAOrderBooking project retrieves customer information from the database. It does this by invoking the CustomerService project. The SOAOrderBooking project checks the customers credit. It does this by invoking the CreditService project.

6.

The SOAOrderBooking project then determines if the order requires manual approval. It does this by using the rules defined in a rules repository. The application uses these rules:

If the customers status is platinum, then the order is approved automatically, regardless of the dollar amount of the order. For non-platinum customers, if the dollar amount of the order is greater than or equal to $1000, then the order requires manual approval. If the order is under $1000, then the order is approved automatically.

7. 8. 9.

For orders that require manual approval, a manager needs to log into the Worklist application and approve (or reject) the order. For approved orders, the SOAOrderBooking project requests quotes from the suppliers: SelectManufacturer and RapidService. After getting responses from the suppliers, the SOAOrderBooking project selects the supplier that responded with the lower quote. order. It does this by invoking the FulfillmentESB project.

10. The SOAOrderBooking project selects a shipping method (USPS or Fedex) for the 11. The FulfillmentESB project checks the dollar amount of the order. If the amount is

under $500, then it selects the USPS as the shipper. Otherwise, Fedex is the shipper.
12. The SOAOrderBooking project sets the order status in the database. 13. The SOAOrderBooking project sends an email to the customer. It does this through

the Email service, which is available in BPEL.

1.3 Software Required for Creating and Running the Application

To create the SOA Order Booking and SOADemo-Client applications, and to run them, you need the following software:
Table 12 Software Oracle JDeveloper Required Software Description Oracle JDeveloper is the development tool that you use to develop the applications. You need Oracle JDeveloper version 10.1.3.1.0. Oracle Application Server is the runtime platform on which you deploy and run the applications. You need Oracle Application Server Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0). Oracle Database is used to store data such as customer, order, and product information. To run the SOA Order Booking application, you create a schema called SOADEMO in the database and install tables with sample data in the schema. Projects in the SOA Order Booking application read from and write to tables in the SOADEMO schema. You need release 10g (10.2.x) of the Oracle Database. You cannot use the Oracle Lite database that is shipped with the Windows version of Oracle Application Server.

Technologies and Techniques Used in Each Project

Running in a Multi-Lingual or Multibyte Environment If you are running the Oracle BPEL Process Manager in a multi-lingual environment or need multibyte support, it is recommended that your database character set encoding be Unicode. This means that the database character set encoding should be AL32UTF8. If the character set encoding is not Unicode, there may be possible loss or misinterpretation of data.

1.5 How This Tutorial Is Organized

The steps of the tutorial begin in Chapter 2, "Setting Up Your Environment", where you begin by downloading and installing the required software and configuring the required connections in JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server. Chapter 3 to Chapter 9 describe the projects in the SOA Order Booking application. Each chapter covers one project. You start by creating the projects that provide web services. After you have these services in place, you can create the SOAOrderBooking project, which, because it defines the main flow in the application, invokes almost all the web services. Chapter 10, "Interfacing the Client Application with the SOA Order Booking Application", covers how the SOADemo-Client application invokes services in the SOA Order Booking application.

1.6 Technologies and Techniques Used in Each Project

The SOA Order Booking application integrates SOA Suite technologies such as BPEL and ESB, and uses them to invoke web services in a defined flow sequence. The web services are independent of each other and are generated in different ways. Table 15 lists the technologies and techniques used in the projects in the SOA Order Booking application.
Table 15 Project CustomerService Technology and Techniques Used in the Projects Technology and Techniques Used

Uses EJB 3.0 entity objects that are generated from database tables. JDeveloper is used to generate the entity objects. Uses JSR-181 Web Services Metadata annotations.

Setting Up Your Environment
This chapter describes how to set up the required software for creating and running the SOA Order Booking application. This chapter contains the following sections:

Section 2.1, "Download the Files for the Tutorial" Section 2.2, "Install Oracle Application Server" Section 2.3, "Install Oracle JDeveloper" Section 2.4, "Unzip the Files for the SOA Order Booking Application" Section 2.5, "Install the SOADEMO Schema" Section 2.6, "Define Data Source and Connection Pool in Oracle Application Server" Section 2.7, "Set Up Connections in Oracle JDeveloper" Section 2.8, "Create the SOADEMO Application in JDeveloper"

2.1 Download the Files for the Tutorial

To use this tutorial, you need to download files for:

Oracle Application Server. This is your runtime environment. JDeveloper. This is your development environment. SOA Order Booking demo application. This is the application that this tutorial describes. The zip file that contains the files for the application is soademo_ 101310_prod.zip.

You can download the files from the Service-Oriented Architecture page on the Oracle Technology Network site (http://www.oracle.com/technology/soa).

2.2 Install Oracle Application Server

Install Oracle Application Server Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) from the zip file you downloaded. You can perform either the Basic installation or the Advanced installation. If you choose the Advanced installation, ensure that you install the SOA Suite, which is installed automatically in the Basic installation. The tutorial assumes that your Oracle Application Server installation uses the default port of 8888. The installer configures Oracle HTTP Server or OC4J to listen on this port if the port is not in use. If the port is in use, the installer will try the next number on the list. See the Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for your platform for details.
Setting Up Your Environment 2-1

Install Oracle JDeveloper

If your installation uses a different port number, you need to change the port number in some files. These files will be pointed out as you develop the application. Remember the password that you set for the oc4jadmin user. You will need this password for managing Oracle Application Server. For details on installing Oracle Application Server, see the Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for your platform.

2.3 Install Oracle JDeveloper

Install JDeveloper Version 10.1.3.1.0 from the zip file you downloaded. You can install JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on the same machine or on different machines. The tutorial assumes that JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server are installed on the same machine. If you installed them on different machines, you will need to update the hostname in certain files. These files will be pointed out as you develop the application.

2.4 Unzip the Files for the SOA Order Booking Application
Unzip the soademo_101310_prod.zip file that you downloaded for the SOA Order Booking application. You can unzip the files into a temporary directory. When you create the application, you will create the files for the application in a different directory. You will copy some files from the temporary directory to the application directory when you develop the SOA Order Booking application. For example, you can unzip the files into C:\temp, and you can build your application in C:\soademo.

2.5 Install the SOADEMO Schema

You need to have DBA privileges for the database where you want to install the SOADEMO schema.
Note: You must install the SOADEMO schema on Oracle Database

9i, 10g, or XE. If you want to install the schema on an Oracle Lite database, you need to modify the SQL scripts that install the SOADEMO schema and its objects. To install the SOADEMO schema:
1. 2.

Change directory to where you unzipped the soademo_101310_prod.zip file for the SOA Order Booking application. Check that the directory contains the following files:

build.sql createSchema.sql createSchemaObjects.sql populateSchemaTables.sql

3. 4.

Check that the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variables are set. Run build.sql as DBA using SQL*Plus:

2-2

Oracle SOA Suite Tutorial

Define Data Source and Connection Pool in Oracle Application Server

> sqlplus "sys/password as sysdba" SQL> @build.sql

The script creates a schema called SOADEMO with "ORACLE" as its password, and populates it with the tables described in Section 1.4, "Contents of the SOADEMO Schema".

2.6 Define Data Source and Connection Pool in Oracle Application Server
You need to define data sources and connection pools in Oracle Application Server so that the SOA Order Booking application will be able to access the database during runtime.

2.6.1 Start Up Application Server Control

Application Server Control is the web-based tool that you use to manage Oracle Application Server. To access Application Server Control, enter the following URL in a browser: http://hostname:port/em hostname specifies the machine running Oracle Application Server. port specifies the HTTP listening port. The installer configures Oracle HTTP Server or OC4J to listen on port 8888 if the port is not in use. If the port is in use, the installer will try the next number on the list. See the Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for your platform for details. When Application Server Control prompts you to log in, enter oc4jadmin as the username. The password for oc4jadmin is the password that you set during installation.

2.6.2 Create a Connection Pool

Connection pools maintain connections to your database. For the SOA Order Booking application, you need to create a connection pool called soademo_pool.
1. 2. 3. 4.

Log into Application Server Control. Click the home link to display the OC4J:home page. On the OC4J:home page, click the Administration tab. Click the icon in the Go To Task column for Services > JDBC Resources. See Figure 21 below. This displays the JDBC Resources page.

Creating the CustomerService Project
This chapter describes how to create the CustomerService project. It contains these sections:

Section 3.1, "About the CustomerService Project" Section 3.2, "Create a New Project for CustomerService" Section 3.3, "Create Entity Beans from Tables in the Database" Section 3.4, "Edit persistence.xml" Section 3.5, "Create a Session Bean in the business Directory" Section 3.6, "Define Additional Queries in Customer.java" Section 3.7, "Use a Database Sequence to Generate Address IDs in Address.java" Section 3.8, "Edit Session Facade for the Session Bean (CustomerServiceBean.java)" Section 3.9, "Add and Modify Methods in the Session Bean (CustomerServiceBean.java)" Section 3.10, "Add JSR-181 Annotations to the Web Service Endpoint Interface (CustomerService.java)" Section 3.11, "Create EJB JAR Deployment Profile for the CustomerService Project" Section 3.12, "Deploy CustomerService" Section 3.13, "View the WSDL for CustomerService"

3.1 About the CustomerService Project

The CustomerService project provides methods that enable client applications, such as the SOADemo-Client application, to retrieve customer information from the database and add customers to the database. Highlights of the CustomerService project:

The project is invoked directly by the SOADemo-Client application. When a customer logs in using the client application, the client application invokes the CustomerService project to validate the user. The project uses Java Persistence API entity objects to manage the CUSTOMER and ADDRESS tables in the SOADEMO schema in the database. The project uses an EJB 3.0 stateless session bean with JSR-181 Web Services annotations. This means that application servers that support JSR-181 are able to publish the bean as a web service during deployment. Methods in CustomerService that you want to make public (that is, invocable by client
Creating the CustomerService Project 3-1

Create a New Project for CustomerService

applications) are defined in this bean. Client applications can then invoke the methods through Web Services.

The SOAOrderBooking project, which is a BPEL process, also invokes the CustomerService project to get details on the customer, such as the customers status (for example, platinum or gold).

3.2 Create a New Project for CustomerService

In Step 4, EJB Component Interfaces:

Implement a Remote Interface: select this option. Remote Interface: org.soademo.customerservice.business.CustomerServiceRemote.

Note: The name of the remote interface is different from the default

value.

Implement a Local Interface: select this option. Local Interface: org.soademo.customerservice.business.CustomerServiceLocal. Include Web Service Endpoint Interface: select this option. Web Service Endpoint Interface: org.soademo.customerservice.business.CustomerService.
Note: The name of the web service endpoint interface is different

from the default value. Note that selecting the Include Web Service Endpoint Interface option adds the JSR-181 library to the project. This library is needed for the project to compile. You can also add this library to the project later, if it is not already added. In the generated WSDL, the name of the web service endpoint interface ("CustomerService") is used as a prefix for message names. It is also used as the name for the port type. You need to consider this because this affects the SOAOrderBooking project. The CustomerSvc.wsdl file in the SOAOrderBooking\bpel directory specifies "CustomerService" as the name of the port type. The port type names in the CustomerSvc.wsdl file and in the generated CustomerService WSDL must match. After you deploy the

Define Additional Queries in Customer.java

3.6 Define Additional Queries in Customer.java

Edit the Customer.java file, located in the CustomerService\src\org\soademo\customerservice\persistence directory, to define additional queries and table information. When you deploy the CustomerService project, Oracle Application Server uses the annotations that define the queries to generate a WSDL for the project and enable clients to access the project as a Web Service. This WSDL is generated by Oracle Application Server; you can view it after you have deployed the CustomerService project. See Section 3.13, "View the WSDL for CustomerService". Edit the Customer.java file so that it looks like the following:
Example 32 Customer.java

Creating the FulfillmentESB Project
This chapter describes how to create the FulfillmentESB project. It contains these sections:

Section 4.1, "About the FulfillmentESB Project" Section 4.2, "Create a New Project for FulfillmentESB" Section 4.3, "Create a System Called "Fulfillment"" Section 4.4, "Create the "OrderFulfillment" Routing Service" Section 4.5, "Create the "Shipment" Routing Service" Section 4.6, "Create the "USPSShipment" Adapter (File Adapter)" Section 4.7, "Create the "FedexShipment" Adapter (Database Adapter)" Section 4.8, "Create the "FulfillmentBatch" Adapter (JMS Adapter)" Section 4.9, "Create Routing Rules" Section 4.10, "Save All Files in the FulfillmentESB Project" Section 4.11, "Register the FulfillmentESB Project"

4.1 About the FulfillmentESB Project

After an order has been approved, the SOAOrderBooking project invokes the FulfillmentESB project to determine the shipping method for the order. Currently there are two possible shipping methods: USPS and Fedex. The FulfillmentESB project sends orders under $500 to USPS, and orders $500 and over to Fedex. Orders are sent to the USPS through a file adapter. The order information is written to a file. For Fedex, orders are sent through a database adapter. The order information is written to a database. The FulfillmentESB project also sends orders to a JMS adapter. For this tutorial, the order is just sent to a JMS queue. There is no consumer of the order data from the queue. This is just to show you how to send messages to a JMS adapter, if you are planning on using one. The FulfillmentESB project is an ESB project. In JDeveloper, the completed project looks like the following:

4.3 Create a System Called "Fulfillment"

For an ESB project, all ESB activities belong to a system. By default, JDeveloper places the activities in a system called "DefaultSystem". To make your ESB projects easier to maintain, you can create a new system and set the ESB activities in a project to belong to that system. During runtime, when you manage the project in the ESB Console, you can configure properties for the activities in a system. If you do not create a system, then in the ESB Console, you will find all your activities under "DefaultSystem". For the FulfillmentESB project, you create a system called "Fulfillment" and set all the activities in the FulfillmentESB project to belong to this system. The OrderBookingESB project, covered in Chapter 9, also has its own system.

4.9 Create Routing Rules

To route order information from one service to another, you set up routing rules. Routing rules enable you to define filters and transformations. Filters enable you to define conditions under which a service gets to process an order, and transformations enable you to map data so that the target service is able to process the data correctly. For the FulfillmentESB project, you create routing rules between the following services:

Section 4.9.1, "Between OrderFulfillment and Shipment" Section 4.9.2, "Between OrderFulfillment and JMS Adapter" Section 4.9.3, "Between Shipment and USPSShipment" Section 4.9.4, "Between Shipment and FedexShipment"

4.9.1 Between OrderFulfillment and Shipment

The OrderFulfillment routing service routes orders to two places: Shipment and FulfillmentBatch. To create routing rule between OrderFulfillment and Shipment:

Creating the CreditService Project
This chapter describes how to create the CreditService project. It contains these sections:

Section 5.1, "About the CreditService Project" Section 5.2, "Create a New Project for CreditService" Section 5.3, "Copy the WSDL File" Section 5.4, "Generate Java from the WSDL" Section 5.5, "Display the List of Files in the Structure Window" Section 5.6, "Build CreditService" Section 5.7, "Write the Code to Perform Credit Card Validation" Section 5.8, "Verify Hostname and Port in CreditService.wsdl" Section 5.9, "Update the Context-Root" Section 5.10, "Rebuild CreditService" Section 5.11, "Deploy Credit Service to Oracle Application Server"

5.1 About the CreditService Project

The CreditService project checks whether a customers credit card is valid or not. In this SOA Order Booking application, the code simply checks the value of the credit card number. If the credit card number is less than 12345678, then the card is invalid. Otherwise, it is valid. The CreditService project is developed in a "top-down" fashion: you start with a WSDL and using this WSDL file, you generate Java classes. RapidService is the opposite: it is developed in a "bottom-up" fashion, where you start with Java classes and you develop a WSDL file from the Java classes. Note that the WSDL file for the CreditService project contains hardcoded values of localhost:8888. You need to modify these values if you meet any of these conditions:

If you are running JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on different machines, change the localhost value to the name of the machine running Oracle Application Server. If your Oracle Application Server instance listens on a port other than 8888, you need to modify the port number.

Creating the RapidService Project
This chapter describes how to create the RapidService project. It contains these sections:

Section 6.1, "About the RapidService Project" Section 6.2, "Create a New Project for RapidService" Section 6.3, "Add JSR-181 Library to the RapidService Project" Section 6.4, "Create Item.java" Section 6.5, "Create Quote.java" Section 6.6, "Create RequestQuote.java" Section 6.7, "Check Files in the Application Navigator" Section 6.8, "Compile the Files" Section 6.9, "Publish the Project as a Web Service" Section 6.10, "Verify the Hostname and Port in the Generated WSDL File" Section 6.11, "Check Files in the Application Navigator" Section 6.12, "Set the Context Root to RapidService" Section 6.13, "Edit the Deployment Descriptor" Section 6.14, "Deploy the RapidService Project" Section 6.15, "View the WSDL for RapidService"

6.1 About the RapidService Project

The RapidService project represents a supplier that provides price quotes for customer orders. The other supplier which it competes with is SelectManufacturer. The supplier that provides the lower quote for a customers order gets to fulfill the order. In the case of the RapidService and CreditService projects, the descriptors are generated at design time. The RapidService project is developed in a "bottom-up" fashion: you start with Java classes and you develop a WSDL file from the Java classes. CreditService is the opposite: it is developed in a "top-down" fashion, where you start with a WSDL and using this WSDL file, you generate Java classes.

6.2 Create a New Project for RapidService

Start by creating a new project for RapidService in JDeveloper:

Creating the SelectManufacturer Project
This chapter describes how to create the SelectManufacturer project. It contains these sections:

Section 7.1, "About the SelectManufacturer Project" Section 7.2, "Create a New BPEL Project for SelectManufacturer" Section 7.3, "Create "SelectService" Partner Link" Section 7.4, "Define Variables for the SelectManufacturer Project" Section 7.5, "Receive Order Data from the Client through a Receive Activity" Section 7.6, "Assign Values to be Returned" Section 7.7, "Return Values to the Client Using an Invoke Activity" Section 7.8, "Deploy the BPEL Process"

7.1 About the SelectManufacturer Project

The SelectManufacturer project represents a supplier called Select Manufacturer. When a customer places an order, the order is sent to two suppliers, Select Manufacturer and Rapid Distributors, to get quote requests from both suppliers. The supplier that responds with the lower quote gets to fulfill the customers order. The SelectManufacturer project is an asynchronous BPEL process. This means that it contains a receive activity to initiate the BPEL process flow and an invoke activity to call back the client asynchronously with the results (that is, the quote) at the end of the flow.

7.2 Create a New BPEL Project for SelectManufacturer

1. 2.

Right-click the SOADEMO application in the Application Navigator and select New Project to display the New Gallery. In the New Gallery, under Categories, expand General and select Projects. Under Items, select BPEL Process Project.

7.6 Assign Values to be Returned

In this assign activity, you set the values that are returned by Select Manufacturer when it is asked for a quote. To simplify things in this SOA Order Booking application, the SelectManufacturer BPEL process returns two values:

its name ("SelectDistributors") the quote for the order. Select Manufacturer simply returns 120 multiplied by the number of items in the order to get the quote.

These values are set in the outputVariable variable, which will be returned to the client.

8.1 About the SOAOrderBooking Project

The SOAOrderBooking project, which is a BPEL project, represents the main flow in the SOA Order Booking application. It sends the order information to the appropriate

Creating the SOAOrderBooking Project 8-1

About the SOAOrderBooking Project

services at the appropriate times. For example, it contacts CreditService to check the customers credit card, and if the credit card is acceptable, it contacts the suppliers (Select Manufacturer and Rapid Distributors) to get price quotes for the order. The SOAOrderBooking project is a large project. This chapter begins by giving an overview of the major blocks in the project, then it goes into detail for each block.

8.1.1 Blocks in the SOAOrderBooking Project

Table 81 lists the major blocks in the SOAOrderBooking project:
Table 81 Block receiveInput InsertOrderIntoDB CustomerService CreditService RequiresManualApproval Major Blocks in the SOAOrderBooking Project Type Description

Receive activity This activity receives incoming requests, which include the order information. Scope Scope Scope Decision This scope inserts the order information into the database. This scope retrieves the customers information from the database. This scope verifies that the customer has acceptable credit. This scope is a decide activity: it consults the rules set up in a rules repository to determine whether or not an order needs to be approved by a manager. The manager can approve or reject the order. This switch checks whether the manager approved or rejected the order, and performs the appropriate activities. For approved orders, it just continues with the rest of the activities in this SOAOrderBooking project. For rejected orders, it throws a fault and does not continue.

SelectSupplier

Scope

This scope selects which supplier (Select Manufacturer or Rapid Distributors) gets to fulfill the order. This scope calls the FulfillmentESB project, which determines the shipping method for the order. This scope writes the final order status in the database. This scope is an email service. It sends out email to the customers informing them that their orders have been processed successfully. This invoke activity notifies the client that it is done.

8.7.6 Create the Mapping File ("TransformOrder" BPEL Service)

In this transform service, you create a file called TransformOrder.xsl to map the incoming order information to the schema defined in Order_table.xsd, which prepares it for insertion in the database. Order_table.xsd was created by the Adapter Configuration wizard that you ran in Section 8.7.1, "Create a Database Adapter for Writing to the ORDERS Table".

In the Component Palette, select Process Activities from the dropdown. Drag the Transform icon from the Component Palette and drop it after the "AssignOrderStatus" activity. Double-click the new transform activity to display the Transform dialog. In the Transform dialog, click the General tab and set the Name to TransformOrder. Click the Transformation tab in the dialog and set these values:

Source Variable: select inputVariable. The Source Part should be set to payload. Target Variable: select orderRequest. The Target Part should be set to OrdersCollection. Mapper File: enter TransformOrder.xsl and click the Create Mapping icon (the middle icon). This displays the Data Mapping tool for TransformOrder.xsl. In the Data Mapping tool, create the simple mappings shown in Table 82. The left column shows the source side and the right column shows the target side. You create the simple mappings by dragging and dropping the labels from the source side to the target side.

This switch checks the result of the "InvokeCreditService" invoke activity. If the customers credit card is valid, the flow continues. If the customers credit card is not valid, the switch throws a fault.
1. 2. 3.

Drag the Switch icon from the Component Palette and drop it below the "InvokeCreditService" activity. Expand the switch. Delete the <otherwise> case. This switch only handles invalid credit responses, for which it throws a fault. For credit cards that are valid, the switch does not apply to them and for those cases, they just continue to the next step in the flow.

8.9.6.1 Specify the Condition for <case>

For the <case> branch, you want to handle cases where a customers credit is not valid. This information is stored in the validateResponse variable.

Double-click the title bar of the <case> box to display the Switch Case dialog. In the Switch Case dialog, click the XPath Expression Builder icon above the Expression box to display the Expression Builder dialog. In the Expression Builder dialog, in the BPEL Variables box, select Variables > Process > Scope - CreditService > Variables > validateResponse > valid > ns11:valid. The Content Preview box should show bpws:getVariableData(validateResponse, valid, ns11:valid). The ns11 prefix maps to the "http://www.globalcompany.com/ns/credit.xsd" namespace. It may be different on your system. If you want, you can scroll to the top of your SOAOrderBooking.bpel file (in source view) to verify the prefix.

8.10 Set up Oracle Business Rules

The repository for Oracle Business Rules contains the rules used by the decision service in Oracle BPEL Process Manager to determine whether or not an order needs to be approved manually by a manager. The Oracle Business Rules repository is separate from the SOA Order Booking application: you can edit the rules without modifying and redeploying the SOA Order Booking application.

8-70

Oracle SOA Suite Tutorial

Set up Oracle Business Rules

The rules that you will create in the repository are:

If a customers status is platinum, then a managers approval is not required, regardless of the amount of the order. If an orders total is $1000 or more and the customers status is not platinum, then a managers approval is required. If an orders total is under $1000, then a managers approval is not required.

8.10.1 Set up the Repository File

To create a repository file for Oracle Business Rules and to define the rules in it, you use Oracle Business Rules Rule Author ("Rule Author"), which is a Web-based tool that enables you to create and manage Oracle Business Rules repositories. Location of the Repository File Create the repository file in the SOAOrderBooking\bpel\rules\oracle directory. However, if you are running JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on different machines, you have to create the repository file on the Oracle Application Server machine (because Rule Author creates the file on the Oracle Application Server machine). After you have created the repository file and populated it with rules, you copy it from the Oracle Application Server machine to the JDeveloper machine.
1.

Create the following directory where you are building the SOA Order Booking application: SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking\bpel\rules\oracle\ This is the directory where you will place the Oracle Business Rules repository file.

2.

In a browser, go to the Rule Author page. The URL for Rule Author is: http://host:port/ruleauthor host specifies the machine running Oracle Application Server, and port specifies the HTTP port (for example, 8888).

3. 4.

Log in as the oc4jadmin user. In the Repository tab:

Repository Type: select File. File Location: enter SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking\bpel\rules\oracle\sample_ repository. (SOADEMO refers to the directory where you are building the SOA Order Booking application.) Rule Author will create the sample_ repository file. If you are running JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on different machines, enter a path on the Oracle Application Server machine, for example, C:\rules\sample_repository. It does not matter where you place it, because after creating the file and defining the rules in it, you copy it from the Oracle Application Server machine to the SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking\bpel\rules\oracle\ directory on the JDeveloper machine.

8.10.3 Copy OrderBookingRules.xsd to the Oracle Application Server Machine

This step is required only if you are running JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on different machines. If you are running both on the same machine, you already have the OrderBookingRules.xsd file on the Oracle Application Server machine (you copied the file in Section 8.3, "Copy Files"). The OrderBookingRules.xsd file in the soademo_101310_prod.zip file describes the XML elements that provide the facts for Oracle Business Rules. The XSD file is located in the SOAOrderBooking\bpel directory in the zip file. If you are running JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on different machines, copy this file from the soademo_101310_prod.zip file to the Oracle Application Server machine, to the directory where you placed the repository file (for example, C:\rules). See step 4 on page 8-71. In Section 8.10.4, "Generate JAXB Classes for the Elements in the XML Schema", you use Rule Author to generate Java classes for the XML elements defined in OrderBookingRules.xsd.

8.10.6 Define a Variable in the Data Model

You define variables in the data model so that if you need to make changes later, you only need to edit the value of the variable. In the case of the SOA Order Booking application, you create a variable called AUTOMATED_ORDER_LIMIT to define the dollar amount where orders above this amount would need manual approval from a manager and orders under this amount are approved automatically.

See Section 8.10.8.1, "Create the "belowLimit" Rule". If an orders total price is greater than or equal to the value set in the AUTOMATED_ORDER_LIMIT variable and the customer is not a platinum customer, the order requires a managers approval. See Section 8.10.8.2, "Create the "overLimit" Rule". If the customer is a platinum customer, the order is approved automatically, regardless of the order amount. See Section 8.10.8.3, "Create the "platinumMember" Rule".

For orders that require manual approval, the "requiresApproval" switch passes control to a human task activity. This enables a manager to approve or reject the orders. The "requiresApproval" consists of a <case> branch only. It does not have an <otherwise> branch. For orders that do not require manual approval, this switch does not apply to them. The <case> branch contains a human task activity and another switch activity (Figure 8146).

Click OK in the Human Task dialog. JDeveloper creates the SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking\bpel\ApproveOrder directory, and creates these files in it:

ApproveOrder.task ApproveOrder_payload.xsd WorkflowTask.xsd

8.12.5 Create a Form for the Worklist Application

When a manager wants to see the orders that are waiting for approval, the manager logs into the Worklist application. You can access this application from the Start menu of the machine running Oracle Application Server: Start > Programs > Oracle ORACLE_HOME_NAME > Oracle BPEL Process Manager > Worklist Application. You need to create a form that the Worklist application can use. This form enables the Worklist application to display data specific to the SOA Order Booking application. To create this form:
1.

In the Application Navigator, right-click the ApproveOrder folder (located under SOAOrderBooking > Integration Content) and select Auto Generate Simple Task Form. JDeveloper displays the payload-body.jsp file in the editor. You can close it without making any changes to it.

2.

JDeveloper creates the following directory and files:

SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking\bpel\ApproveOrder\ApproveOrder_ Display.tform SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking\public_html\

8.12.6 Accept the Default Settings for the Remaining Human Task Activities

Handle the Managers Response ("requiresApproval" Switch)

8.13 Handle the Managers Response ("requiresApproval" Switch)

JDeveloper created a switch for you automatically after the human task activity. This switch enables you to define the actions to take depending on whether the manager approved or rejected the order, or if the order has expired. The switch handles these cases:

The manager rejected the order. The manager approved the order. The order has expired.

8.13.1 Handle the Reject Case

If the manager rejected the order, you want to perform these two activities:

set the status item to a string saying that the order has been rejected, and create a throw activity

8.13.1.1 Set the Status of the Order (Assign Activity)

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Expand the switch. For <case Task outcome is REJECT>, delete the default "CopyPayloadFromTask" assign activity. There are now no activities for the REJECT case. In the Component Palette, select Process Activities from the dropdown. Drag the Assign activity icon from the Component Palette and drop it in the REJECT case. Double-click the new assign activity to display the Assign dialog. In the Assign dialog, click the Copy Operation tab. Select Copy Operation from the Create dropdown. This displays the Create Copy Operation dialog. In the From side, set Type to Expression, and enter the following line in the Expression box:

Click OK in the Throw dialog.

8.13.2 Handle the Approve Case

In the Approve case, delete the default assign activity and create an empty activity by dragging the Empty icon from the Component Palette to the APPROVE case. You only need the empty activity because nothing needs to happen here. The flow just needs to continue to the next step.

8.13.3 Handle the Expired Case

You handle the Expired, Stale, Withdrawn, or Errored case in the same manner as for the Approve case, that is, delete the default assign activity and replace it with an empty activity. This is acceptable because in the SOA Order Booking application, orders do not expire and users will not encounter this case.

8.13.4 Accept the Default Settings for Each Case

JDeveloper also set the conditions for each branch in the switch. To see the conditions, double-click the titlebar on each branch. You do not need to make any changes to the conditions.

Choose a Supplier ("SelectSupplier" Scope)

8.14 Choose a Supplier ("SelectSupplier" Scope)

This scope sends the order information to the two suppliers, Select Manufacturer and Rapid Service, and the suppliers return their bids for the orders. The scope then chooses the supplier that provided the lower bid. Figure 8163 shows the activities in the "SelectSupplier" scope at a high level. The scope uses a flow activity to send the order information to the two suppliers in parallel. The flow contains two scopes, one for each supplier. After the suppliers have returned their bids, a switch activity selects the lower bid.
Figure 8163 Activities for the "SelectSupplier" Scope Shown at a High Level

Figure 8164 shows the activities in the flow, and also the switch activity after the flow. The scope for Select Manufacturer includes a receive activity, which is not required for the scope for Rapid Service. This is because Select Manufacturer is invoked asynchronously. The receive activity is needed to receive the bid when Select Manufacturer returns it. Rapid Service is invoked synchronously; the invoke activity invokes the request and receives the response (that is, the bid value). The switch activity has two branches: the <case> branch handles the case where SelectManufacturer returned the lower bid, and the <otherwise> branch handles the case where Rapid Service returned the lower bid.

For this switch activity, you just need to specify the condition for the <case> branch. For the <otherwise> branch, you do not have to set a condition. If the condition in the <case> branch is not met, then the activities in the <otherwise> branch are executed.
1. 2. 3.

Expand the switch activity. Double-click the titlebar of the <case> box to display the Switch Case dialog. The <case> branch handles the case where Select Manufacturer returns a lower price than Rapid Service. In the Expression area, enter the following line:
number(bpws:getVariableData('selectManufacturerResponse','parameters', '/ns15:processRequestQuoteResponseElement/ns15:return/ns15:supplierPrice')) < number(bpws:getVariableData('rapidManufacturerResponse','parameters', '/ns16:POItemsQuoteResponse/ns30:return/ns30:supplierPrice'))

You may need to replace the prefixes for the namespaces, as follows:

ns15 is the prefix for http://www.globalcompany.com/ns/selectservice. ns16 is the prefix for http://www.globalcompany.com/ns/rapidservice.

8.20.1 Deploying Using Ant from the Developer Prompt

If you get errors, check that the values you entered in the build.properties file are correct. If the values are correct, but you still get errors, you can run ant from the Developer Prompt to deploy the project:
1.

Select Start > Programs > Oracle - instanceName > Oracle BPEL Process Manager > Developer Prompt. This displays a shell window configured for Oracle BPEL Process Manager. Note that you must run ant from the Developer Prompt shell window to deploy the SOAOrderBooking project. Running ant from a regular operating system shell for deploying the project is not supported.

2.

In the Developer Prompt window, change directory to the SOADEMO\SOAOrderBooking directory, where SOADEMO refers to the directory where you created the SOA Order Booking application.
> cd SOADEMO > cd SOAOrderBooking

If you are running JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server on separate machines, you can copy the SOAOrderBooking directory from the JDeveloper machine to the Oracle Application Server machine. You can place it anywhere on the Oracle Application Server machine. In the Developer Prompt, you can just navigate to that directory.

This chapter describes how to create the OrderBookingESB project. It contains these sections:

Section 9.1, "About the OrderBookingESB Project" Section 9.2, "Create a New Project for OrderBookingESB" Section 9.3, "Create a System Called "OrderBooking"" Section 9.4, "Create the "OrderBookingService" Routing Service" Section 9.5, "Invoke the SOAOrderBooking Process ("OrderBookingProcess" External Service)" Section 9.6, "Set up Routing Rules for OrderBookingService" Section 9.7, "Save All Files in the OrderBookingESB Project" Section 9.8, "Register the OrderBookingESB Project"

9.1 About the OrderBookingESB Project

The OrderBookingESB project is the entry point to the SOA Order Booking application. The SOADemo-Client application invokes the OrderBookingESB project when a customer clicks the Place Order button. The OrderBookingESB project invokes the SOAOrderBooking project, which is a BPEL project that defines the main flow of the SOA Order Booking application. The OrderBookingESB project is an ESB project. In JDeveloper, it looks like the following:

Similar to the "Fulfillment" system that you created for the FulfillmentESB project (covered in Section 4.3, "Create a System Called "Fulfillment""), for the OrderBookingESB project you create a system called "OrderBooking". You can then set all the activities in the OrderBookingESB project to belong to this system. If you do not create a system, JDeveloper places the activities in a system called "DefaultSystem". To create a system called "OrderBooking":

Interfacing the Client Application with the SOA Order Booking Application
The focus of this chapter is how to get a client application such as the SOADemo-Client application to interface with the projects in the SOA Order Booking application. This chapter does not cover how to create the client application in detail because the client application uses the standard ADF technology, which is covered in detail in the ADF Developers Guide and ADF Tutorial. This chapter includes the following topics:

Section 10.1, "About the SOADemo-Client Application" Section 10.2, "Invoking Services from CustomerService" Section 10.3, "Invoking the OrderBookingESB Project" Section 10.4, "Deploying the Client Application"

10.1 About the SOADemo-Client Application

The SOADemo-Client application is a Web-based application that customers use to place orders with Global Company. When a customer logs into the application, he or she can browse products, place products into the shopping cart, and submit the order. For details on the pages in the SOADemo-Client application, see the Oracle SOA Suite Quick Start Guide. The SOADemo-Client application uses ADF technology to simplify the application development process and to make the application easier to maintain. You can use JDeveloper to create ADF applications. The SOADemo-Client application makes calls to these services provided by the SOA Order Booking application:

CustomerService. In the login process, the client application uses the "find customer by email" service provided by CustomerService to validate the customers login ID and password. CustomerService. The SOADemo-Client application provides a Register button that enables new customers to add themselves to the database. The Register button invokes the "add new customer" service provided by CustomerService. OrderBookingESB. When the customer submits an order, it invokes the OrderBookingESB project. The OrderBookingESB project in turn invokes the SOAOrderBooking BPEL process, which is the main flow for the SOA Order Booking application.
Interfacing the Client Application with the SOA Order Booking Application 10-1

Invoking Services from CustomerService

For the SOADemo-Client application to be able to invoke services provided by CustomerService and OrderBookingESB, you have to generate web service proxies for the services. In the code for the client, you call methods in the web service proxy, which then invokes the corresponding methods in CustomerService or OrderBookingESB. You can use JDeveloper to generate web service proxies.

10.2 Invoking Services from CustomerService

This section describes how to generate a web service proxy for CustomerService, and how to call it from the client application.

Section 10.2.1, "Generate a Web Service Proxy for CustomerService" Section 10.2.2, "Build the Files" Section 10.2.3, "Write Code to Invoke the Web Service Proxy for CustomerService"

10.2.1 Generate a Web Service Proxy for CustomerService

To generate web service proxy for CustomerService, you create a project for it in the client application. The following procedure starts by creating an empty project, then invokes the Create Web Service Proxy wizard to create the proxy for CustomerService.
1.

Create a project in your client application to contain the web service proxy for CustomerService. Begin by creating an empty project:
a. b.

Right-click the client application, and select New Project. In the New Gallery, in the Categories section, expand General and select Projects. In the Items section, select Empty Project.

1.

If you selected Generate JUnit Unit Test Code in step 8 on page 10-6, then you need to download JUnit from an external site (for example, http://www.junit.org).

10-6

Oracle SOA Suite Tutorial

Invoking Services from CustomerService

Add the JUnit jar file to the project before building the project. To add the jar file to the project, right-click the CustomerService project in the client and select Project Properties. In the Project Properties dialog, select Libraries on the left side, and click Add Jar/Directory on the right side. Select the JUnit jar file to add to the project.
2.

Right-click the CustomerService project in the client and select Rebuild.

10.2.3 Write Code to Invoke the Web Service Proxy for CustomerService
The main web service proxy file for CustomerService is src\oracle\soademo\view\services\CustomerServiceClient.java. This file lists the methods provided by CustomerService. Your client application can call the methods in this class, and you deploy your client application with the web service proxy. The SOADemo-Client application invokes the web service proxy for CustomerService in two places:

Section 10.2.3.1, "Verifying the Login" Section 10.2.3.2, "Registering New Customers"

10.2.3.1 Verifying the Login

In the SOADemo-Client application, when the customer clicks the Login button, it invokes the login_action method in Login.java, located in the SOADEMO-CLIENT\UserInterface\src\oracle\soademo\view\backing directory. The login_action method calls the findCustomerByEmail method in CustomerServiceClient to verify the customers login. The method is passed the email and password information entered by the customer on the login page. If the customer is found, it stores the customer information in the session and returns "success".
public String login_action() { String AUTH_USER = "Authorized_User"; // Check credentials FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); // Call Web service to check user credentials try { oracle.soademo.view.services.CustomerServiceClient myPort = new oracle.soademo.view.services.CustomerServiceClient(); System.out.println("calling " + myPort.getEndpoint()); // test adding new customer Customer newCust = null; newCust = myPort.findCustomerByEmail(emailId.getValue().toString(), pwd.getValue().toString()); //Store customer info on session if (newCust != null) JSFUtils.storeOnSession(ctx, "custinfo", newCust); else { FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Login Failed!"); msg.setSeverity(msg.SEVERITY_ERROR); FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, msg); return null;

Invoking Services from CustomerService

} } catch (Exception ex) { FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Login Failed!"); msg.setSeverity(msg.SEVERITY_ERROR); FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, msg); //ex.printStackTrace(); return null; } // Set CurrentUser mananged bean properties JSFUtils.setManagedBeanValue(ctx,"Current_User.loggedIn",true); JSFUtils.setManagedBeanValue(ctx,"Current_User.userid", emailId.getValue().toString()); JSFUtils.storeOnSession(ctx, AUTH_USER, "Authorized_User"); return "success"; }

10.2.3.2 Registering New Customers

The Register page enables new customers to add themselves to the database. When the customer fills in the information and clicks the Register button on the page, it invokes the register_action method in Register.java, also located in the SOADEMO-CLIENT\UserInterface\src\oracle\soademo\view\backing directory. The register_action method collects the customer information and invokes the addNewCustomer method on CustomerService.
public void register_action(ActionEvent ae) { String AUTH_USER = "Authorized_User"; FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); Customer newCust = new Customer(); if (password.getValue().toString().equals(password_chk.getValue().toString())) { // Call Web service to register new customer try { oracle.soademo.view.services.CustomerServiceClient myPort = new oracle.soademo.view.services.CustomerServiceClient(); System.out.println("calling " + myPort.getEndpoint()); // Adding new customer info Address addr = new Address(); newCust.setFname(fname.getValue().toString()); newCust.setLname(lname.getValue().toString()); newCust.setEmail(email.getValue().toString()); newCust.setPhonenumber(phone.getValue().toString()); newCust.setPassword(password.getValue().toString()); addr.setStreet(street.getValue().toString()); addr.setCity(city.getValue().toString()); addr.setState(state.getValue().toString()); addr.setZip(zip.getValue().toString()); // For now set to US address addr.setCountry("USA"); List addrList = new ArrayList(); addrList.add(addr);

10-8

Oracle SOA Suite Tutorial

Invoking the OrderBookingESB Project

newCust.setAddressList(addrList); myPort.addNewCustomer(newCust); // Generate successful registration message FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage("Registration Successful!")); } catch (Exception ex) { FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Registration Failed!"); msg.setSeverity(msg.SEVERITY_ERROR); FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, msg); FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(ex.getMessage())); ex.printStackTrace(); } //Store customer info on session JSFUtils.storeOnSession(ctx, "custinfo", newCust); // Set CurrentUser mananged bean properties JSFUtils.setManagedBeanValue(ctx,"Current_User.loggedIn",true); JSFUtils.setManagedBeanValue(ctx,"Current_User.userid", email.getValue().toString()); JSFUtils.storeOnSession(ctx, AUTH_USER, "Authorized_User"); } else { // Generate password mismatch msg FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Your password values do not match!"); msg.setSeverity(msg.SEVERITY_ERROR); FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, msg); } }

10.3 Invoking the OrderBookingESB Project

Creating the web service proxy for the OrderBookingESB project is slightly different from creating the proxy for CustomerService, because OrderBookingESB is an ESB project.

10.3.1 Retrieve the Concrete WSDL URL

Before you can run the Create Web Service Proxy wizard, you need the concrete URL that returns the WSDL for OrderBookingESB. You can do this using the ESB Console.
1.

Access the ESB Console using the following URL: http://hostname:port/esb/esb/EsbConsole.html hostname specifies the name of the machine running Oracle Application Server, and port specifies the HTTP port at which Oracle HTTP Server or OC4J is listening.

2. 3.

On the left side of the ESB Console, select OrderBookingService. This is the starting point for the OrderBookingESB project. On the right side of the ESB Console, select the Definition tab. You should see a page that looks something like Figure 1010:

10.3.4 Write Code to Invoke the Web Service Proxy for OrderBookingESB
On the Shopping Cart page in the SOADemo-Client application, customers click the Place Order button to submit their order. This button invokes the PlaceOrder_ action method in ShoppingCart.java (located in the SOADEMO-CLIENT\UserInterface\src\oracle\soademo\view\backing directory). The PlaceOrder_action method:

creates an instance of __soap_initiate_pptClient, which is the proxy for OrderBookingESB. This class was generated by the Web Service Proxy wizard. You should check the name of the generated file in your environment. The name of the class may be slightly different (for example, __soap_ OrderBookingService_initiate_pptClient.java).
