Hello,

I'm trying to access the biomart data via WebService described in:
http://www.biomart.org/martservice.html (SOAP access)
I was directed to you by ensembl helpdesk.

I am able to retrieve the list of attributes for my requested dataset:
hsapiens_snp
but when I try to query I get no data, until I get socket time out.

maybe my query line is wrong, this is it:
proxy.query("default", 0, 0, 0, new Dataset[]{dataset});

My client program and output can be seen below

Thanks, Ariel.

Client code:
        final String wsAddress = "http://www.biomart.org/biomart/martsoap";;
        final MartServiceSoapProxy proxy = new MartServiceSoapProxy();
        proxy.setEndpoint(wsAddress);

        /*
         * Here is where I extract the attributes, this succeeded :)
         */
        try
        {
            AttributePage[] attrPages = proxy.getAttributes("hsapiens_snp",
"default");
            for(AttributePage attributePage : attrPages)
            {
                System.out.println("Attribute Page: [" +
attributePage.getName() + "]");
                AttributeGroup[] attrGroup =
attributePage.getAttributeGroup();
                for(AttributeGroup attributeGroup : attrGroup)
                {
                    System.out.println("\tAttribute Group: [" +
attributeGroup.getName() + "]");
                    AttributeCollection[] attrCollect =
attributeGroup.getAttributeCollection();
                    for(AttributeCollection attributeCollection :
attrCollect)
                    {

                        AttributeInfo[] attrInfo =

                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        catch(RemoteException ex1)
        {
            final String msg = "Exception: [" + ex1.getMessage() + "]";
            sLogger.error(msg);
            throw new RimonException(msg, ex1);
        }

        /*
         * Prepare request
         */
        final Attribute[] attrs = new Attribute[4];
        attrs[0] = new Attribute("dbsnp");
        attrs[1] = new Attribute("chr_name");
        attrs[2] = new Attribute("chrom_start");
        attrs[3] = new Attribute("allele");
        final Dataset dataset = new Dataset("hsapiens_snp", null, attrs);

        /*
         * Send request
         */
        String[][] wsResult = null;
        try
        {
            wsResult = proxy.query("default", 0, 0, 0, new Dataset
[]{dataset});
        }
        catch(RemoteException ex)
        {
            final String msg = "Exception: [" + ex.getMessage() + "]";
            sLogger.error(msg);
            throw new RimonException(msg, ex);
        }

        /*
         * Let's see the result
         */
        for(String[] array : wsResult)
        {
            for(String result : array)
            {
                System.out.println("result [" + result + "]");
            }
        }
