Bean data and getBodyByName()...

[PILLAI,RANJITH (HP-PaloAlto,ex1)]

Hi there,   Question 1) Is there any issue with getBodyByName (namespace, localpart) in SOAPEnvelope class? .Because my method 1)(listed below) throws NullPointerException and Method 2 (listed below) returns result.                           Method 1) -> I am calling directly getBodyByName().                         Method 2) -> I am using getBodyElements() and iterate through the result to find localpart "MyBean". Here things work fine.   Method 1)   SOAPEnvelope sEnlp=mess.getSOAPEnvelope(); SOAPBodyElement  sBElement=sEnlp. getBodyByName("http://webservice5", "MyBean"); String name=sBElement.getName(); à This throws NullPointerException.   Method 2)   But when I am doing this way.. SOAPEnvelope sEnlp=mess.getSOAPEnvelope();                                     Vector v= sEnlp.getBodyElements();                                     for(int i=0;i<v.size();i++){                                                 SOAPBodyElement sBElement=(SOAPBodyElement)v.elementAt(i);                                                 System.out.println("Name"+sBElement.getName());                                                 String name=sBElement.getName();                                                 if(name.equals("multiRef")){                                                            QName qna=sBElement.getType();                                                             String localPart=qna.getLocalPart();                                                             System.out.println("LocalPart->"+qna.getLocalPart()); àThis prints "MyBean"                                                             System.out.println("NameSpace->"+qna.getNamespaceURI()); àThis prints "http://webservice5"                                                             if(localPart.equals("MyBean")){                                                                         Iterator itr=sBElement.getChildElements();                                                                         hile(itr.hasNext()){                                                                                     MessageElement mElement=(MessageElement)itr.next();                                                                                     System.out.println("ElementValue->"+  mElement.getObjectValue());                                                                         }                                                             }                                                  }                                     }   Question 2) I am following the above procedure to get bean data at client. Is this right? If Yes once I get my MessageElement, how do I extract "name" and "value"?.   Thanks in advance for your help, Ran
