I want to consume a web service for converting currencies (at
http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?wsdl ) and I used the
EXCELLENT implementation in DreamweaverMX to write the code. That drag
and drop is an absolute gem for this!
Anyway, the resulting page give an error and I cant see why because what?s
going in seems perfectly logical for what the web service is supposed to
do.
Here?s the code that Dreamweaver wrote:
<cfinvoke
webservice="http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL";
method="conversionRate"
returnvariable="conversionRateRet">
<cfinvokeargument name="fromCurrency" value="GBP"/>
<cfinvokeargument name="toCurrency" value="USD"/> </cfinvoke>
Which (I thought) should take the input value GBP and work out a
conversion to USD, and return a variable #conversionRateRet# which will
be a number such as 1.02, being the conversion rate.
However here?s what I get:
[quote] Could not perform web service invocation "conversionRate" because java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch [/quote]
And it?s highlighting the ?toCurrency? line as the one with the error. Huh? If the ?fromCurrency? line is correct, how come the next line isn?t? Can anyone see what?s wrong? Or is there something else I have to do on the page?
