All,
I am having an issue with the HTTPBuilder class in my Groovy script while trying to POST my request in XML format to a WSDL. What am I doing wrong?
Below is my code:
import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder.*
import static groovyx.net.http.ContentType.*
import static groovyx.net.http.Method.*
def baseURL = "http://server:port"
def pathIn = "/folder1/folder2"
/* Groovy Utilities Declaration */
def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils(context)
/* Request - modified - Holder Setup */
def modRequest = context.expand('${Groovy Script - Modify Request#Result}')
def modRequestHolder = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder("modRequest")
/* Define few variables for httpbuilder */
def httpWSDL = new HTTPBuilder(baseURL)
def respReturn = null
// Post the request against the WSDL using (httpbuilder.request(Method POST, ContentType XML); set uri.path to the path after base url of wsdl & body to requestholder.xml
// perform a POST request, expecting XML response
httpWSDL.request(POST, XML){ req ->
uri.path = pathIn
body = modRequestHolder.xml
// response handler for a success response code
response.success = { resp, reader ->
ret = reader.getXML()
println 'Response data: -----'
println respReturn
println '--------------------'
}
}
Below is the exception:
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: Script1.groovy: 26: unable to resolve class HTTPBuilder @ line 26, column 24.
def httpWSDL = new HTTPBuilder(baseURL) ^

Note: The HTTPBuilder JAR files are installed in both ext & lib folders (I did this after reading few forums). Some of them suggested that I import REST Client. How do I do this? Also, the wsdl I'm working on is a SOAP service. Would I still have to import the REST plugin?
I'm very new to SOAPUI & Groovy and finding my way through.
It would be great is anyone can help me out. Thanks in advance!
I think that if you copy all the required jars on /ext or /lib folder, your code must works. I think the problem is that you're using the * on import for a path class which is not a path package, more exactly this:
import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder.*
should be:
import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder
Since groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder it's directly a class you can't add * to the end, this is why your groovy script is throwing org.codehaus.groovy.syntax.SyntaxException: unable to resolve class HTTPBuilder
Hope this helps,
