Well for starters, you shouldn’t
use soapenc:Array with document/literal services.
I notice that your SOAP message
isn’t generated properly. It should contain an element called <metricsArray>, which should contain a set of three
<metric> elements, except that instead you get three <metricsArray> elements. The service sees only the one
array element in the first array and ignores the following two (unexpected)
elements. I suspect it’s because you’ve defined the array using soapenc:Array.
What version of Axis are you using? I
suggest you use the latest Axis 1.2 build.

Subject: Array Deserialized
Incorrectly
Hi,
I used
java2wsdl when publishing an axis service. The service method expects a
parameter class with contains an array of a different (non-primitive) class.
The client has no problem calling the service, and the service does
almost everything perfectly. However, no matter how many array elements I
send to the service, it only receives an array of length = 1 for processing.
Here
is the wsdl:

When
the client inserts 3 metrics, here is the outgoing SOAP request XML as picked
up by the Handler:
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope
xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"

<metricsArray>

<level>0</level>

</metricsArray>
<metricsArray>
<begin>1087312889439</begin>

<end>1087313889439</end>
<level>0</level>

<metricName>my
metric_3</metricName>
<type>1</type>
</metricsArray>
</in0>
</processMetricComposite>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Again,
during processing, the service implementation only gets an array (of Metric) of
length = 1. The message completes, albeit with what appears to be partial
input, and flawlessly returns a positive response to the client.
Am I
doing something wrong here javs2wsdl? The only place that I am a little
concerned about is the axis-generated MetricComposite definition. I can
include additional bits upon request. The typeDesc is initialized in the
following manner:
public
class
MetricComposite implements java.io.Serializable {
private
int
metricLevel;
private
java.lang.String metricSponsor;
private
com.micorp.metrics.Metric[] metricsArray;
public
MetricComposite() {
}
.
.
.
public
com.micorp.metrics.Metric[] getMetricsArray() {
return metricsArray;
}
public
void
setMetricsArray(com.micorp.metrics.Metric[] metricsArray) {
this.metricsArray = metricsArray;
}
.
.
.
// Type metadata
private
static
org.apache.axis.description.TypeDesc typeDesc =
new
org.apache.axis.description.TypeDesc(MetricComposite.class);
static
{
typeDesc.setXmlType(new
javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://metrics.MY_COMPANY.com",
"MetricComposite"));
org.apache.axis.description.ElementDesc elemField = new
org.apache.axis.description.ElementDesc();
elemField.setFieldName("metricLevel");
elemField.setXmlName(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("", "metricLevel"));
elemField.setXmlType(new
javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema",
"int"));
typeDesc.addFieldDesc(elemField);
elemField = new
org.apache.axis.description.ElementDesc();
elemField.setFieldName("metricSponsor");
elemField.setXmlName(new
javax.xml.namespace.QName("",
"metricSponsor"));
elemField.setXmlType(new
javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema",
"string"));
typeDesc.addFieldDesc(elemField);
elemField = new
org.apache.axis.description.ElementDesc();
elemField.setFieldName("metricsArray");
elemField.setXmlName(new
javax.xml.namespace.QName("",
"metricsArray"));
elemField.setXmlType(new
javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://metrics.MY_COMPANY.com",
"Metric"));
typeDesc.addFieldDesc(elemField);
}
I
thought the metricsArray definition would have possibly suggested an array of Metric
(i.e., Metric[]) rather than simply Metric, but I may not be comfortable enough
at this point with the code.
Thanks,
in advance, for taking a look at the source.

Matt Hanson
