hello there, i have following wsdl file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <wsdl:definitions xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/" xmlns:tns="http://www.ekaplus.com/NotifyEvent/" xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" name="NotifyEvent" targetNamespace="http://www.ekaplus.com/NotifyEvent/"> <wsdl:types> <xsd:schema targetNamespace="http://www.ekaplus.com/NotifyEvent/"> <xsd:element name="notifyEvent"> <xsd:complexType> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="in" type="xsd:string" /> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> </xsd:element> <xsd:element name="notifyEventResponse"> <xsd:complexType> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="out" type="xsd:string" /> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> </xsd:element> </xsd:schema> </wsdl:types> <wsdl:message name="notifyEventRequest"> <wsdl:part element="tns:notifyEvent" name="param_in" /> </wsdl:message> <wsdl:message name="notifyEventResponse"> <wsdl:part element="tns:notifyEventResponse" name="param_out" /> </wsdl:message> <wsdl:portType name="NotifyEventPortType"> <wsdl:operation name="notifyEvent"> <wsdl:input message="tns:notifyEventRequest" /> <wsdl:output message="tns:notifyEventResponse" /> </wsdl:operation> </wsdl:portType> <wsdl:binding name="NotifyEventBinding" type="tns:NotifyEventPortType"> <soap:binding style="document" transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http" /> <wsdl:operation name="notifyEvent"> <soap:operation soapAction="http://www.ekaplus.com/NotifyEvent/notifyEvent" /> <wsdl:input> <soap:body use="literal" /> </wsdl:input> <wsdl:output> <soap:body use="literal" /> </wsdl:output> </wsdl:operation> </wsdl:binding> <wsdl:service name="NotifyEventService"> <wsdl:port binding="tns:NotifyEventBinding" name="NotifyEventPort"> <soap:address location="http://localhost:8092/NotifyEventService" /> </wsdl:port> </wsdl:service> </wsdl:definitions> when I call the service from axis client it converts xml < > character to http://www.nabble.com/file/p23994109/sp_caracter.jpg in payload , i am setting xml string (<test> test msg</test>) as input message but in server I get payload as http://www.nabble.com/file/p23994109/sp_caracter.jpg which causes exception, is there anyway option in axis client to not to convert these character and send the message as it is to service? When I tested the same service with SOAP UI it works and send the message as it is, the issue is with axis client code. following is client code snippet public void test1NotifyEventPortNotifyEvent() throws Exception { com.ekaplus.www.NotifyEvent.NotifyEventBindingStub binding; try { binding = (com.ekaplus.www.NotifyEvent.NotifyEventBindingStub) new com.ekaplus.www.NotifyEvent.NotifyEventServiceLocator().getNotifyEventPort(); } catch (javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException jre) { if(jre.getLinkedCause()!=null) jre.getLinkedCause().printStackTrace(); throw new junit.framework.AssertionFailedError("JAX-RPC ServiceException caught: " + jre); } assertNotNull("binding is null", binding); // Time out after a minute binding.setTimeout(60000); // Test operation java.lang.String value = null; value = binding.notifyEvent(new java.lang.String("<test>test message </test>")); // TBD - validate results System.out.println("ResponseDoc::"+value); } thanks & regards Brijesh N K -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Axis-client-converts-%3C-%3E-character-to---lt---gt--in-payload-tp23994109p23994109.html Sent from the Axis - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
