I have written a SOAP WSDL application using mobilefirst by:
1) Using the Discover backend services option
2) Writing my own JavaScript adapter code to follow the documentation provided by IBM.
Now my final R&D is to consume this soap service using a java adapter.
I have gone through many StackOverflow topics and samples but I haven't been able to find anything related. Can anyone explain the steps to invoke a SOAP-based webservice request using java adapter?
The following video blog post details the following about Java adapers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKM5480-6wI

- Using WLResourceRequest in client applications to communicate with Java Adapters
- Using Postman REST client for communicating with Java Adapters
- Create HTTP Adapter
- In xml add WebService Host and Port in Domain/Port elements
- Assemble soapXMLRequest
- Use HTTP Invoke to call server
ex.
var input = {
method : 'post',
returnedContentType : 'xml',
headers : {
SOAPAction : SOAP_FULL_URL
},
path : WEBSERVICE_PATH,
body : {
content : soapXMLRequest,
contentType : 'text/xml; charset=utf-8'
}
};
var response = WL.Server.invokeHttp(input);
