The bad news is: Apache Axis is not in Android BUT the good news is,
you can do this with a simple HTTP POST. Get the SOAP envelope that
Axis generates for you and POST it yourself with something like this:
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PostMethod;
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
PostMethod postMethod = new PostMethod( YOUR_ENDPOINT );
postMethod.setRequestHeader( "Content-Type", "text/xml;
charset=utf-8" );
postMethod.setRequestHeader( "SOAPAction", YOUR_OPERATION );
postMethod.setRequestBody( YOUR_SOAP_ENVELOPE );
int statusCode = client.executeMethod( postMethod );
if ( statusCode == 200 ) { // good response
return( postMethod.getStatusLine().toString() );
}
To get the SOAP envelope, start tcpmon or SOAPMonitor and run your
axis code below. Then copy the SOAP from the monitor window and paste
it into your Android code.
If you'd like to expand on that approach, I'd recommend putting the
SOAP in a resource file and merging in arguments such as "Mike".
enjoy!
