Consume a simple web service using mule

Question

I am trying to consume a public service using Mule + apache cxf. The service is available at http://www.html2xml.nl/Services/Calculator/Version1/Calculator.asmx?WSDL

This is a very simple service which does basic arithmetic operations. I am trying to call the operation "Add" here. My mule configuration is as below

<flow name="calculator" doc:name="calculator">

<stdio:inbound-endpoint system="IN" doc:name="STDIO"/>
<custom-transformer class="com.calculator.transformer.CalculatorClient" doc:name="Java"/>

<outbound-endpoint address="http://localhost:28081/service/Calculator?WSDL" exchange-pattern="request-response" doc:name="HTTP">

  <cxf:jaxws-client clientClass="com.calculator.wsdl.Calculator" enableMuleSoapHeaders="true" port="CalculatorHttpPost" wsdlLocation="classpath:/wsdl/Calculator.wsdl" operation="Add">
      <cxf:inInterceptors>
    <spring:bean class="org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor" />
    </cxf:inInterceptors>
    <cxf:outInterceptors>
      <spring:bean class="org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingOutInterceptor" />
    </cxf:outInterceptors>
  </cxf:jaxws-client>

</outbound-endpoint>

 <transformer ref="CalculatorResponse" doc:name="Transformer Reference"/>

 <mulexml:jaxb-object-to-xml-transformer name="CalculatortoXML" jaxbContext-ref="myJaxbCal" />



<stdio:outbound-endpoint system="OUT" doc:name="STDIO"/>


</flow>

Before calling the client class i added a transformer as below. This just sets the 2 numbers to add.

Code

package com.calculator.transformer;

import org.mule.api.MuleMessage;
import org.mule.api.transformer.TransformerException;
import org.mule.transformer.AbstractMessageTransformer;

import com.calculator.wsdl.Add;

public class CalculatorClient extends AbstractMessageTransformer {

@Override
public Object transformMessage(MuleMessage message, String outputEncoding)
        throws TransformerException {
    Add add= new Add();
    add.setA(3);
    add.setB(3);

    return add;
}

}

Once i start mule i receive the error.Not sure what i am doing wrong.

you have mentioned http://localhost:28081/service/Calculator?WSDL as your address and I suppose it should be http://localhost:28081/service/Calculator .
