RE: [axis]: more on can't access java WS from .net

David,

.NET is doing exactly what you’ve told it to do. According to your WSDL, when invoking the getVersion operation, the input message should have no parts (i.e., an empty SOAP Body), as specified in your getVersionRequest message definition:

<wsdl:message name="getVersionRequest">

</wsdl:message>

The fact that Axis has created a <getVersion> element for this request tells me that Axis has a bug. (If you’re using the latest build, then please file a bug report.)

Doc/literal should never generate a method name element for you – that only happens when using the RPC style. (either RPC/encoded or RPC/literal – although neither Axis nor .NET supports RPC/literal).

When using doc/literal, if you want the client to send a <getVersion> element in the SOAP Body, then you must define this element in your schema and specify this element as a message part in your getVersionRequest message:

<wsdl:message name="getVersionRequest">

<wsdl:part name=”parameters” element=”impl:getVersion”

</wsdl:message>

Note also that the “process” operation isn’t valid doc/literal. If Axis generated this WSDL for you, then this is also a bug. (Please file a bug report.) When defining a doc/literal service, your input message must contain at most one body part. You’ve defined three parts. If you’d like Axis and .NET to automatically marshal your parameters for you, then you should use the wrapped style. But either way (document or wrapped style) – you need to define a wrapper element for your input message parameters.

For wrapped style, you need to define an element called “process”, which is a sequence of your input parameters:

<xsd:element name="process">

<xsd:complexType>

<xsd:sequence>

<xsd:element ref="impl:in0"/>

<xsd:element ref="impl:in1"/>

<xsd:element ref="impl:in2"/>

</xsd:sequence>

</xsd:complexType

</xsd:element>

And you need to define your input message such that it contains only one part, referencing this wrapper element:

<wsdl:message name="processRequest">

<wsdl:part element="impl:process" name="parameters"/>

</wsdl:message>

And you need to remove the parameterOrder attribute from your portType operation definition.

Subject: [axis]: more on can't access java WS from .net

Hi;

I have a case where I have created a java web service using Axis setting the SOAP in doc/literal format. My java client can access it fine. My C# client throws an exception. Also, as the SOAP packets below show – two very weird things:

The C# requests have no method name. This clearly is a major problem but why did wsdl.exe not create one and how do I fix this?
The response to the C# client has a 1ec before and a 0 after the SOAP packet. This has occurred all 3 times I tried it – yet no extra chars for the java client response.

******************

The exception thrown is:

+ System.SystemException {"java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Array index out of range: 0"} System.SystemException

It is happening on the call:

object[] results = this.Invoke("getVersion", new object[0]);

The code (with extra stuff removed) is:

[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]

[System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code")]

[System.Web.Services.WebServiceBindingAttribute(Name="WindwardReportsSoapBinding", Namespace="urn:windward.net")]

public class CreateReportService : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol {

public CreateReportService() {

this.Url = "">

}

[System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapDocumentMethodAttribute("", Use=System.Web.Services.Description.SoapBindingUse.Literal, ParameterStyle=System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapParameterStyle.Bare)]

[return: System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("getVersionReturn", Namespace="urn:windward.net")]

public string getVersion() {

object[] results = this.Invoke("getVersion", new object[0]);

return ((string)(results[0]));

}

Any ideas? Again, this works fine with a java client. Both java server & client created with axis wsdl2java. C# code created with .net wsdl.exe.

Thanks - dave

Ps – my wsdl is attached
