My web service knowledge has gotten a little rusty, but here's two things to try:
1. Make sure there's nothing in the WSDL definition for this service that would cause this to happen. What would cause this in the WSDL is better answered by someone who isn't rusty in this area. :) 2. I'm not sure if this is needed, but try this before sending things, a hidden setting that has to deal with SOAP arrays: myWS.stub.xmlEncoderConfig = new XMLEncoderConfig(); myWS.stub.xmlEncoderConfig.useSOAPEncoding = true; -Brian -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of zipo13 Sent: Sunday, July 31, 2005 2:27 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] sending typed arrays over web services Hi, In my app we are sending complex objects back and forth from flex to a web service. The problems is that when an array is inside an object, the objects inside it are typed as anyType and can't be deserialized on the server. I'll explain: If I have a class called Class1 and a container of it Cont and I do var myObj:Cont = new Cont; var myArr:Array = new Array(); var myCls1:Class1 = new Class1; var myCls2:Class1 = new Class1; myArr.push(myCls1); myArr.push(myCls2); myObj.arr = myArr; myWS.myMethod(myObj,myArr).send(); as you can see I set the array in an object, an then I sent it in the object and all by itself. If I look at what flex is sending I see: ----------------------------------------------------------- <arg1 xmlns:ns2="someNamespace" xsi:type="ns2:myObj"> <arr xmlns:ns9="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema"; xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; soapenc:arrayType="ns9:anyType[2]" xsi:type="soapenc:Array"> <item xsi:type="ns9:anyType"> </item> <item xsi:type="ns9:anyType"> </item> </arr> </arg1> <arg2 xmlns:ns14="someNamespace" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; soapenc:arrayType="ns14:Class1[2]" xsi:type="soapenc:Array"> <item xsi:type="ns14:Class1"> </item> <item xsi:type="ns14:Class1"> </item> </arg2 > ----------------------------------------------------------- So when the array is sent inside another object then the objects in the array are typed as anyType but when the array is sent as an argument then the object inside it are typed correctly (as Class1 in this case). Does anybody know why is this and how to get the array to be well typed? -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
