Re: Setting type of a SOAP body element - problem

[Reinhard Moser]

Hi Jerome,

  i'm setting parameters to the SOAP call through calling the method 
call.addParameter() and set all parameters when calling
call.invoke(  new Object[]{parm1, parm2, ..} ).

  May have a look at the userguide examples which you can find at 
<axis-dir>/samples/userguide (e.g. Example2).

regards

Reinhard

Hi,

I'm trying to make a call to a Web Service and specify the type for every
parameter. To make the call I use the following code :
                Service service = new Service();
                Call call = null;
                try {
                        call = (Call) service.createCall();
                } catch (ServiceException SEx) {
                        logger.warning(
                                "Caught ServiceException while creating a
new SOAP Call\n"
                                        + SEx.getLocalizedMessage());
                        return null;
                }
                call.setTargetEndpointAddress(sc.getEndpointURL());
                //make the SOAP body
                SOAPBodyElement requestBody = new SOAPBodyElement();
                requestBody.setName(sc.getMethodName());
                requestBody.setNamespaceURI(sc.getNamespaceURI());
		//add children for parameters
		try {
			for (int i = 0; i < params.length; i++) {
				SOAPBodyElement soapBEParam =
params[i].makeSOAPBodyElement();
	
soapBEParam.setType(org.apache.axis.Constants.XSD_STRING);
				try {
					logger.finest("***** TESTING
*****\n" + DOMSerializer.Serialize(soapBEParam.getAsDocument())); 
				} catch (Exception e) {
					e.printStackTrace();
				}
				requestBody.addChildElement(soapBEParam);
			}
		} catch (SOAPException SOAPEx) {
			logger.warning(
				"Caught a SOAPException while adding
parameters to the SOAPBodyElement\n"
					+ SOAPEx.getLocalizedMessage());
			return null;
		}

But it seems to me that the type is not set. Is it the right method ? I also
tried by adding an xsi:type attribute but with no luck.
