Re: Avoid multiRef in SOAP response (make it simple)

Perfect!

I used the flag "-u LITERAL" when generating the WSDL and it works.

Don't use SOAP encoding. Use document/literal with the "wrapped" convention instead.
(You'll get better performance, too.)

Hi all,

 

I was wondering why Axis 1.3 generates a very complicated and verbose SOAP response, including all this multiRef tags.

 

For my service, that has a method that returns a data structre (object), it generates the following SOAP response:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
 xmlns:xsd=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema "
 xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance ">
<soapenv:Body>
  <ns1:myMethodResponse soapenv:encodingStyle=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ "
   xmlns:ns1="urn:MyService">
    <myMethodReturn href="">  </ns1:myMethodResponse>
  <multiRef id="id0" soapenc:root="0"
   soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ "
   xsi:type="ns2:MyMethodResult"
   xmlns:soapenc=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ " xmlns:ns2="urn:MyService">
    <id xsi:type="soapenc:long">0</id>
    <name xsi:type="soapenc:string">POSTAL</name>
    <birthDate xsi:type="xsd:dateTime" xsi:nil="true"/>
  </multiRef>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

 

Insteadm I would like something similar to:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
 xmlns:xsd=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema "
 xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance ">
<soapenv:Body>
  <ns1:myMethodResponse soapenv:encodingStyle=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ "
   xmlns:ns1="urn:MyService">
    <myMethodReturn xsi:type="ns2:MyMethodResult">
      <id xsi:type="soapenc:long">0</id>
      <name xsi:type="soapenc:string">POSTAL</name>
      <birthDate xsi:type="xsd:dateTime" xsi:nil="true"/>
    </myMethodReturn>
  </ns1:myMethodResponse>
  </multiRef>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

 

Thas is WAY MUCH MORE SIMPLE.

 

Is there any way to make it more simple? More straight forward and avoid this more complex SOAP?

Thanks

Daniel
