Hi,
I'am writting a simple SOAP client in python (2.4) using SOAPpy lib.
I've met with this problem:
when I want to send a list of complex type using
some method from WebService(java,WAS),
I'v got an exception:
**********************
SOAPpy.Types.faultType:
<Fault Server.generalException: org.xml.sax.SAXException:
WSWS3136E: Error: No deserializer defined for
array type {http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema}instance: >
I understand that this exception comes from WebService
server(WAS,java),
and I know the reason of this exception,
A SOAP request genereted by SOAPpy contains invalid information
about Type of objects (which I've send).
Example:
*******
ServerSide (I know a list o methods and data types, so I don't read
WSDL)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
server serve method:
sendMyElements(MyClass input)
where
'MyClass' is a class which contains two fields:
'sessionId' --------- just STRING
'myElements'--------- an array of 'MyElement'
where
'MyElement' is class which contains some simple string fields (name,
desecr)
ClientSide
--------------------
from SOAPpy import WSDL
url =
'http://localhost:9080/RouterTestWeb/services/Test/wsdl/Test.wsdl'
serv = WSDL.Proxy(url)
print serv.methods.keys()
class MyElement:
def __init__(self,x,y):
self.name=x
self.descr=y
class MyClass:
def __init__(self):
self.sessionId="someSessionId-someSessionId-someSessionId"
#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOOK THIS LINE
self.myElements
=MyElement("a","a"),MyElement("b","b"),MyElement("c","")]
print serv.sendMyElements(MyClass())
Look at the line where I create list of elements MyElement,
In python type 'list' is able to store object of any type
(example: [123,"sddsf",MyElement()]),
Maybe this type ('list') gives me to abstract level, cause whey:
list=['a',213,MyElement('as',''),MyElement('adsf',''),MyElement('asdsad','')]
print type(list)
for a in list:
print a,type(a)
I get ...
<type 'list'> -------for list, below for list's elements
a <type 'str'>
213 <type 'int'>
<__main__.MyElement instance at 0x00D4ABC0> <type 'instance'>
<__main__.MyElement instance at 0x00D56C10> <type 'instance'>
<__main__.MyElement instance at 0x00D56CD8> <type 'instance'>
Important, the type(MyElement("sadas","sad")) returns <type
'instance'>
and this information (I think) is used by SOAPpy lib while creating
SOAP request,
a piece of SOAP request:
<saveArrayOfData SOAP-ENC:arrayType="xsd:instance[3]"
xsi:type="SOAP-ENC:Array" SOAP-ENC:root="0" id="i2">
<item href="#i4"/>
<item href="#i5"/>
<item href="#i6"/>
</saveArrayOfData>
I see here, that I'am sending an array of object 'instance'
(SOAP-ENC:arrayType="xsd:instance[3]"),
but a want to send an array of MyElements.
QUESTIONs
*********
1. What shoud I do send an array of objects only one type (MyElement) ?
- create more strict data type than 'list'?
- force object - an instance of MyElement class to return proper
info
about 'type' (type(MyElement('','')))
2. Maybe, I should use 'wsdl2py' to create valid structures (but
'wsdl2py' sometimes fails
while parsing my WSDLs - with error RuntimeError: maximum recursion
depth exceeded)
3. Maybe, I should use other library than SOAPpy
Thanks for any help,
Bartek
