Hey guys,
Been reading the soap spec and a struct looks like a great way to send key/value
pairs of strings to a soap server. For example, I want to send:
"username" => "bob smith"
"hobbies" => "fishing, bike riding, skiing"
Now, how can I achieve this in axis? I have a sample .jws server set up for my
client to test with, but I don't know how to actually send/receive this data, as
most examples in the axis samples are very basic int/string parameters
(send/receive).
The bidbuy example seems to send java objects, does that mean axis is
responsible for turning that into base SOAP data types? I see that the client uses:
// register the PurchaseOrder class
QName poqn = new QName("http://www.soapinterop.org/Bid", "PurchaseOrder");
Class cls = PurchaseOrder.class;
call.registerTypeMapping(cls, poqn, BeanSerializerFactory.class,
BeanDeserializerFactory.class);
...
call.addParameter( "PO", poqn, ParameterMode.IN );
Will I have to do something similar? That looks a bit complex for what I want to
do? It also only gets back a string, I want to get back key/value pairs.
Any tips/code examples welcome!
thanks,
Scott
