Hoping someone has already explored this. Has anyone ever used clj-soap as a client and managed to pass in Basic authentication credentials?

I tried putting them into the URL to the WSDL but that did seem to work…

Off to read up on Axis 2…

Marc,

I tried and also failed.  I ended up writing my own.  See http://www.hydrus.org.uk/journal/soap.html

Since my name was invoked via mention of this repo, I figured it was a
good chance to post from the readme:

"Note however that I am not actively maintaining this library and
would welcome someone taking it over. I updated Tetsuya's code to use
a more modern Clojure environment purely to test it for a problem I
was working on - it didn't really do what I needed so I took a
different approach (using Axis 1.x libraries at a much lower level for
one specific web service)."

Well understood Sean!

If I work out away to up lift the code I'll contribute that back.

I was just checking to see if anyone else had tried.

If, like you, I need to find another way is Axis 1.x an easier platform than 2.x ?The Java SOAP landscape seems overly complex.

I really wish the service I need to integrate with was REST based…

You know, I was faced with this once. What we ended up doing (in Groovy) was just crafting our own SOAP envelope "template" so to speak, and injecting the specifics for the actual SOAP request into it, then using a plain HTTP request. I imagine using something like hiccup would make it even more fun. Add in xml zippers to extract out the good bits from the WSDL, and there you go.

Kind of a hack, but it was much easier to maintain and fix over time than attempting to generate classes via WSDL. Even hand inspecting the WSDL was better than the alternatives....

I had to revert to Axis 1.x for compatibility with some 3rd party code
I don't control that has to run in the same servlet container as our
Clojure code. The Axis 2.x wrapper looked much nicer but we couldn't
use it.
