NoSuchMethodError: SaajUtils.toName() [SWS-152]

Jeff Peterson opened SWS-152 and commented

The following exception occurred when attempting to add a header to the response message:

29 Jun 2007 20:38:04,897 DEBUG MessageDispatcherServlet []: Could not complete request
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement.getVisibleNamespacePrefixes()Ljava/util/Iterator;
at org.springframework.ws.soap.saaj.support.SaajUtils.toName(SaajUtils.java:122)
at org.springframework.ws.soap.saaj.Saaj11Implementation.addHeaderElement(Saaj11Implementation.java:109)
at org.springframework.ws.soap.saaj.SaajSoapHeader.addHeaderElement(SaajSoapHeader.java:54)
...

The problem is in SaajUtils.java, line 122:

Iterator prefixes = resolveElement.getVisibleNamespacePrefixes();

However, getVisibleNamespacePrefixes() is not available in SAAJ 1.1.

I will submit a patch shortly.

A simple workaround:

When calling addHeaderElement(QName), make sure the QName prefix is set to a non-empty string.

Fixed. SaajUtils now uses getNamespacePrefixes() under SAAJ 1.1.
