model.fields.merge.MailMerger not working in jboss AS7

[Ruwen]

Hello,

after some research I could run the 'HelloMavenCentral' example in my jboss 7.1.1 Final (as normal Java Application it was straight foreward).

However, I was not able to get the MailMerger running. Seems like there is a problem with the JAXBContext. I played around with different setups recommanded on stackoverflow an also tried the moxy implementation (which gives some different error output, but complaining about the totally same lines of code).

Here is my stacktrace, if you need further implementations details please let me know.

This is the relevant line of code where all the trouble begins (taken from the examples, and working outside of jboss)

Code: Select all

org.docx4j.model.fields.merge.MailMerger.performMerge(wordMLPackage, thismap, true);

For the full consol please check http://pastebin.com/pmp8iupi

Thank you very much in advance for any hint how to solve this problem.

Could you please attach a sample docx which causes the issue?

Also, try using http://www.docx4java.org/docx4j/docx4j- ... 140805.jar
and posting the log output? This nightly should shed some light on the issue.

Shame on me. I played around with the template file and then forgot about it. It contained fields/conditions that are not supported by docx4j, so it couldn't work. Fixing the template fixed the whole problem.

I post an example just in case someone wants to produce a docx file via template an make it accessible via REST.

Loading the template and replace mergefields.

Code: Select all

public class FieldsMailMerge {
      public ByteArrayOutputStream createDoc() throws Exception {
      
      WordprocessingMLPackage wordMLPackage = WordprocessingMLPackage.load(
         new java.io.File(System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/template.docx")
      );
      
      Map<DataFieldName, String> map = new HashMap<DataFieldName, String>();
      map.put( new DataFieldName("Vorname"), "Jon");
      map.put( new DataFieldName("Name"), "Doe");
      map.put(new DataFieldName("Nummer"), "2");
       
        org.docx4j.model.fields.merge.MailMerger.performMerge(wordMLPackage, map, true);
   
        OpcPackage pkg = wordMLPackage.getPackage();
        ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        Save save = new Save(pkg);
        save.save(baos);

        return baos;

   }
}

Creating the relevant REST resource

Code: Select all

   
    @GET
    @Path("docCopy")
    @Produces({"application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"})
    public Response getWordDocCopy() {
       FieldsMailMerge fmm = new FieldsMailMerge(); 
       ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
       
       try {
          out = fmm.createDoc();
       }
       catch(Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
       }
              
       return Response.ok(out.toByteArray()).build();
    }

Thanks for the help and your great work in general!
