Getting Request Content

I need to get the request content from the operations in my Project. I have full access, I would prefer it not be in string format (This eliminates getProperty('Request');). I really need it to be in Document format if possible. I am digging through a lot of different functions and can't find a decent solution.


I've mainly been dealing with it at the testStep level but about to start looking into the operation level of it. Thanks for any assistance.

    So I haven't really been able to find a decent way to do this. I am using the following methods for it if anyone else is interested in it.

        public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
            WsdlProject project = buildProject();
            buildTestCases(project);
            for (Interface iface:project.getInterfaceList()) {
                for (Operation op:iface.getOperationList()) {
                    for (Request req:op.getRequestList()) {
                        Document doc = loadXMLFromString(req.getRequestContent());
    //This is where the document parsing would be done                    
                        System.out.println(doc.getFirstChild());
                    }
                }
            }
                
            //project.saveAs("Test.xml");
            System.exit(0);
        }


    build project just builds the project, scans my WSDL directory and uses WsdlInterfaceFactory.importWsdl to import them.

        private static WsdlProject buildProject() throws Exception {
            File WSDLDir = new File(new File("").getAbsolutePath() + "\\Data\\WSDLs\\");
            WsdlProject project = new WsdlProject();
            project.setName("This is a new project");
            WsdlInterface iface = null;
            for (File wsdl : WSDLDir.listFiles()) {
                iface = WsdlInterfaceFactory.importWsdl(project, wsdl.toString(), true)[0];
            }
            return project;
        }


    buildTestCases builds the testSuite TestCase and Test Steps and adds one step for each operation from the WSDL

        private static void buildTestCases(WsdlProject project) {
            WsdlTestSuite TS = project.addNewTestSuite("Test");
            WsdlTestCase TC = TS.addNewTestCase("Test");
            TS.setName("Test");
            for (Interface inface : project.getInterfaceList()) {
                for (Operation op : inface.getAllOperations()) {
                    TestStepConfig TStepC = WsdlTestRequestStepFactory.createConfig((WsdlOperation) op, op.getName());
                    TC.addTestStep(TStepC);
                }
            }
        }


    And loadXMLFromString sets the xml to a ByteArrayInputStream to be parsed by the DocumentBuilderFactory to give me a Document that can be used by w3c.dom

        private static Document loadXMLFromString(String xml) throws Exception {
            DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
            factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
            DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
            return builder.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream(xml.getBytes()));
        }
