public interface SOAPEnvelope extends SOAPElement
SOAPPart object. By default, a SOAPMessage
object is created with a SOAPPart object that has a
SOAPEnvelope object. The SOAPEnvelope object
by default has an empty SOAPBody object and an empty
SOAPHeader object. The SOAPBody object is
required, and the SOAPHeader object, though
optional, is used in the majority of cases. If the
SOAPHeader object is not needed, it can be deleted,
which is shown later.
A client can access the SOAPHeader and SOAPBody
objects by calling the methods SOAPEnvelope.getHeader and
SOAPEnvelope.getBody. The
following lines of code use these two methods after starting with
the SOAPMessage
object message to get the SOAPPart object sp,
which is then used to get the SOAPEnvelope object se.
SOAPPart sp = message.getSOAPPart();
SOAPEnvelope se = sp.getEnvelope();
SOAPHeader sh = se.getHeader();
SOAPBody sb = se.getBody();
It is possible to change the body or header of a SOAPEnvelope
object by retrieving the current one, deleting it, and then adding
a new body or header. The javax.xml.soap.Node method
deleteNode deletes the XML element (node) on which it is
called. For example, the following line of code deletes the
SOAPBody object that is retrieved by the method getBody.
se.getBody().detachNode();
To create a SOAPHeader object to replace the one that was removed,
a client uses
the method SOAPEnvelope.addHeader, which creates a new header and
adds it to the SOAPEnvelope object. Similarly, the method
addBody creates a new SOAPBody object and adds
it to the SOAPEnvelope object. The following code fragment
retrieves the current header, removes it, and adds a new one. Then
it retrieves the current body, removes it, and adds a new one.
SOAPPart sp = message.getSOAPPart();
SOAPEnvelope se = sp.getEnvelope();
se.getHeader().detachNode();
SOAPHeader sh = se.addHeader();
se.getBody().detachNode();
SOAPBody sb = se.addBody();
It is an error to add a SOAPBody or SOAPHeader
object if one already exists.
The SOAPEnvelope interface provides three methods for creating
Name objects. One method creates Name objects with
a local name, a namespace prefix, and a namesapce URI. The second method creates
Name objects with a local name and a namespace prefix, and the third
creates Name objects with just a local name. The following line of
code, in which se is a SOAPEnvelope object, creates a new
Name object with all three.
Name name = se.createName("GetLastTradePrice", "WOMBAT",
"http://www.wombat.org/trader");

A new SOAPMessage object is by default created with a
SOAPEnvelope object that contains an empty
SOAPHeader object. As a result, the method
getHeader will always return a SOAPHeader
object unless the header has been removed and a new one has not
been added.

It is illegal to add a header when the envelope already contains a header. Therefore, this method should be called only after the existing header has been removed.
