Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-10317: ----------------------------------------- Hi Rajesh, The first thing we need to do is create a test script to repeat the break. >From there we can start to find solutions. So my recommendation to start on this task is to create a test script (in groovy or python or whatever) that utilizes XML RPC to generate the error. We can use that same script to test our solutions later on. > Allowing XML-RPC and SOAP to pass GenericValue objects to services as IN > fields > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-10317 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10317 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: framework/webtools > Affects Versions: 16.11.04 > Reporter: Rajesh Kumar Mallah > Priority: Major > > > The existing framework allows invoking various services via XMLRPC or SOAP > as per their argument expectations. However only basic types are handled > like String , Boolean , Int etc. If a service is expecting a GenericValue eg: > 'calculateProductPrice' it is not possible to invoke it via SOAP or XMLRPC. > The reason being SOAP or XMLRPC can support Map and that is the closest > it can provide in lieu of any custom Object that a Service might be expecting. > A generic solution needs to be found so that the full potential of the > plethora of > exportable services can be utilized by external systems that looks for > integrating and > banking upon OfBiz via XMLRPC or SOAP. > h6. related Threads: > [How to pass org.apache.ofbiz.entity.GenericValue using XMLRPC] > [https://markmail.org/message/dwako4nsu4h3zgmu] [ dev ] > [https://markmail.org/message/iuffmakor3ru2yce] [user] > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
