RE: how a web service resolve a document style invocation

[Wagh, Shrikant]

Hi Enrique,   It is little tricky to ensure that the intended web services are invoked when you use doc-lit type of services and your WSDL contains more than one web services operation. You will have to take care of following few things. In your WSDL file if you have multiple operations which take the same type of argument then you will have to put them in separate namespaces, so they resolved uniquely. In your WSDD file you will have to specify the unique QNAME that will appear as the root element in the body for particular operation. You will have to use the <operation> and <parameter> tags in the WSDD file file for this purpose. When you create the request, make sure that you have the appropriate root element with namespace qualification, so that the appropriate operation is invoked.   Hope this helps.   Regards, Shrikant Wagh QA Lead, HPP/Eprofile, HP   Note: I found that WebServiceTester from Optimyz software is a very good tool for testing any types of web services, and I’m great fan of this tool. It supports all types of web services, and all simple and complex types and it very usable than any other tool in the market I ever encountered/evaluated. It automatically generates the SOAP requests and invokes the intended web services. It can perform functional, regression and load testing of web services. Result analysis and status reporting is just wonderful. �I’ll highly recommend this tool for testing web services, saves lots of time and efforts in testing web services.

Looking to the example, how the server now that the method the user is calling is “method” and not “method2”???   Pardon for my english, i hope it is clear enough.   Regards, Enrique     Example extrac form the user guide documentation   <soap:Envelope xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/"    xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">   <soap:Body> <myNS:PurchaseOrder xmlns:myNS="http://commerce.com/PO">    <item>SK001</item>    <quantity>1</quantity>    <description>Sushi Knife</description> </myNS:PurchaseOrder>   </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> public void method(PurchaseOrder po)
