I'm trying to use the Ebay trading API using JAX-WS. (yes, i know there's an SDK for the trading API webservice, but I'm trying to avoid using it, since the other Ebay APIs don't have an SDK. Doesn't make sense for me to code half my program using an SDK)
https://go.developer.ebay.com/api-documentation
First, I created JAX-WS stubs using wsimport, then I created the jar file. I was following this documentation: http://java.boot.by/ocewsd6-guide/ch06.html
I'm trying to call the GetSessionID function. The documentation is here: http://developer.ebay.com/Devzone/XML/docs/Reference/eBay/GetSessionID.html
I was able to get this far:
ebay.apis.eblbasecomponents.EBayAPIInterfaceService eais = new ebay.apis.eblbasecomponents.EBayAPIInterfaceService();
ebay.apis.eblbasecomponents.EBayAPIInterface eport= eais.getEBayAPI();
//here, need to build a request
ebay.apis.eblbasecomponents.GetSessionIDRequestType gsr = new GetSessionIDRequestType();
gsr.setRuName(runame);
//http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSAW57_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.nd.doc/ae/twbs_cookiejaxws.html
// Set up the Map that will contain the request headers.
Map<String, Object> req_ctx = ((BindingProvider)eport).getRequestContext();
req_ctx.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY, "https://api.ebay.com/ws/api.dll");
// req_ctx.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY, "https://api.ebay.com/wsapi");
Map<String, List<String>> headers = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
headers.put("runame", Collections.singletonList("BLAHBLAH"));
headers.put("X-EBAY-API-COMPATIBILITY-LEVEL", Collections.singletonList("907"));
headers.put("X-EBAY-API-DEV-NAME", Collections.singletonList("BLAHBLAH"));
headers.put("X-EBAY-API-APP-NAME", Collections.singletonList("BLAHBLAH"));
headers.put("X-EBAY-API-CERT-NAME", Collections.singletonList("BLAHBLAH"));
headers.put("X-EBAY-API-CALL-NAME", Collections.singletonList("GetSessionID"));
headers.put("X-EBAY-API-SITEID", Collections.singletonList("US"));
headers.put("Content-Type", Collections.singletonList("text/xml"));
req_ctx.put(MessageContext.HTTP_REQUEST_HEADERS, headers);
GetSessionIDResponseType gsResponse = eport.getSessionID(gsr);
But then, I get the error below.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Better yet, can anyone generate sample code to call this API?

Exception running application Ebluna
The caused-by exception is a big clue. Because you're using a JAX-WS client created from a WSDL, the runtime is expecting a SOAP xml response with a root xml element of <Envelope> but is instead getting a <GetSessionIDResponse> as root element in the HTTP response.
Per the eBay trading API docs, they have a plain xml-over-http endpoint and a SOAP-over-http endpoint url. Since you're using SOAP, you need to use only the SOAP endpoint URL; your code is actually specifying both endpoints (luckily last one wins and you're actually using the right one - but you don't need to set the endpoint twice): https://api.ebay.com/wsapi
I believe the reason you may be getting a non-SOAP response may be because of the HTTP headers you are passing. The docs say these are only for use with the non-SOAP endpoint; yet you are using the SOAP endpoint and passing them anyways. For the SOAP interface you're supposed to pass these params as URL query string parameters on the endpoint URL.
For example:
Example: Specifying Routing Information in the Request URL
// Define the endpoint (e.g., the Sandbox Gateway URI)
String endpoint = "https://api.sandbox.ebay.com/wsapi";
// Define the query string parameters.
String queryString = "?callname=AddItem"
+ "&siteid=0"
+ "&appid=myappid"
+ "&version=349";
+ "&Routing=new";
String requestURL = endpoint + queryString;
EBayAPIInterfaceServiceLocator sl = new EBayAPIInterfaceServiceLocator();
EBayAPIInterface privBinding = sl.geteBayAPI(new URL(requestURL));
((EBayAPISoapBindingStub)privBinding).setTimeout(60000);
