PM52577: EGL client interface generation error where soapAction values are defined as empty within WSDL

Rational Business Developer Fix Pack 3 (8.0.1.3) for 8.0.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Environment: windows
  Product name: IBM? Rational? Business Developer
  
  Program Version    :  8.0.1.2
  Description.
  Applications using ServiceLib.setWebServiceLocation fail to call
  the correct service operations when deployed and run on dual
  WebSphere servers. This defect has been identified where the EGL
  client interface generation is incorrectly handling WSDL files
  which contain an empty value for soapAction.
  
  The related WSDL segment includes the value of soapAction for
  each operation as empty ie ?wsdlsoap:operation soapAction=''/?
  which then causes erroneous code to be generated affecting
  runtime behavior. The workaround is to set the value to any
  value which is not empty eg: ?wsdlsoap:operation
  soapAction='getBuyer'/?
  
  The EGL client interface generation should handle any WSDL even
  where the soapAction is defined as empty and this will be
  permanently addressed in a future product release.

• Change implementation so system can set new service location
  correctly and function as expected
