Package javax.xml.rpc

Interface Call


  • public interface Call
    The javax.xml.rpc.Call interface provides support for the dynamic invocation of a service endpoint. The javax.xml.rpc.Service interface acts as a factory for the creation of Call instances.

    Once a Call instance is created, various setter and getter methods may be used to configure this Call instance.

        boolean isParameterAndReturnSpecRequired​(javax.xml.namespace.QName operationName)
        Indicates whether addParameter and setReturnType methods are to be invoked to specify the parameter and return type specification for a specific operation.
        Parameters:
        operationName - Qualified name of the operation
        Returns:
        Returns true if the Call implementation class requires addParameter and setReturnType to be invoked in the client code for the specified operation. This method returns false otherwise.
      • addParameter
