Here is the SAAJ code:

QName name = new QName("symbol");
SOAPElement symbol = bodyElement.addChildElement(name);
symbol.addTextNode("SUNW");

Here is the XML it produces:

The

String "SUNW"

is the text node for the element

. This

String

object is the message content that your recipient, the stock quote service,
receives.

The following example shows how to add multiple

SOAPElement

objects and add

text to each of them. The code first creates the

SOAPBodyElement

object

purchaseLineItems

, which has a fully qualified name associated with it. That

is, the

QName

object for it has a namespace URI, a local name, and a namespace

prefix. As you saw earlier, a

SOAPBodyElement

object is required to have a fully

qualified name, but child elements added to it, such as

SOAPElement

objects, can

have

Name

objects with only the local name.

SOAPBody body = message.getSOAPBody();
QName bodyName = new QName("http://sonata.fruitsgalore.com",

"PurchaseLineItems", "PO");

SOAPBodyElement purchaseLineItems =

body.addBodyElement(bodyName);

QName childName = new QName("Order");
SOAPElement order =

purchaseLineItems.addChildElement(childName);

childName = new QName("Product");
SOAPElement product = order.addChildElement(childName);
product.addTextNode("Apple");

childName = new QName("Price");
SOAPElement price = order.addChildElement(childName);
price.addTextNode("1.56");

childName = new QName("Order");
SOAPElement order2 =

purchaseLineItems.addChildElement(childName);

childName = new QName("Product");
SOAPElement product2 = order2.addChildElement(childName);
