Hi, I'm a new user to Axis, just downloaded it and playing around with it (Axis RC1)
I was under the impression that when you invoke an Axis webservice, you need to specify the correct namespace for the Service and/or operation name. But it seems to be working even if you provide the incorrect namespace. For eg, my deployed StockQuoteDemo webservice has the following targetnamespace, as per the WSDL: targetnamespace ="http://localhost/axistest/services/urn:xmltoday-delayed-quotes"; I'm using the following code to invoke the webservice: System.setProperty(javax.xml.rpc.ServiceFactory.SERVICEFACTORY_PROPERTY, "org.apache.axis.client.ServiceFactory"); String invalidNamespace = "blah blah"; javax.xml.rpc.Service service = ServiceFactory.newInstance ().createService(new QName(invalidNamespace , "StockQuoteServiceService")); javax.xml.rpc.Call call = service.createCall(); call.setOperationName(new QName(invalidNamespace , "test")); call.setTargetEndpointAddress ("http://localhost:9090/axistest/services/urn:xmltoday-delayed-quotes";); String returnValue = (String)call.invoke(null); It works fine when I was expecting it to complain. So is the actual Object to be invoked located simply via a unique URL (the targetendpoint) instead of the namespace? Thanks, Junaid
