Re: SOAP Help Building Request With Nested Tags

[Scott Nichol]

In your example, "subscribe" is the method being called.  Because its element has 
exactly one child element, there is exactly one parameter to the method, something 
called "comHdr", which is an XML complexType.  You would model this in your Java code 
as a class.

public class _ComHdr {
    public _WSCredentials WSCredentials = new _WSCredentials();
}

public class _WSCredentials {
    public string UserName;
    public string Password;
}

_ComHdr ch = new _ComHdr();
ch.WSCredentials.UserName = "xxxxx";
ch.WSCredentials.Password = "yyyyy";

// Here you must map BeanSerializer as [de-]serializer for _WSCredentials, _ComHdr 
classes,
// but I will leave it to you to look at, say, the AddressBook samples to see how this 
is done

Vector parms = new Vector();
parms.addElement(new Parameter("comHdr", _ComHdr.class, ch, null));
call.setParams(parms);

Do not send e-mail directly to this e-mail address,
because it is filtered to accept only mail from

Subject: SOAP Help Building Request With Nested Tags


I have been struggling with Apache SOAP to try and build a request. Specifically, I 
don't understand how to embed these elements into the Header and Body sections. More 
specifically, how to do this nested tags. 
Thanks for any advice you can provide.

Below, is a sample of the request I need to send to the server. 


<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; 
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; 
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
<SOAP-ENV:Header>
<ContinueHeader xmlns="http://www.openuri.org/2002/04/soap/conversation/";>
<uniqueID>111111111111111</uniqueID>
</ContinueHeader>
</SOAP-ENV:Header>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<subscribe xmlns="http://xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/service";>
<comHdr>
<WSCredentials>
<UserName>xxxxxxx</UserName>
<Password>xxxxxxxx</Password>
</WSCredentials>
</comHdr>
</subscribe>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>


I can add the <UserName>xxxxxxx</UserName> <Password>xxxxxxxx</Password> to the body 
of the request using:

Vector parms = new Vector();
parms.addElement(new Parameter("UserName", String.class, username, null));
parms.addElement(new Parameter("Token", String.class, password, null));
call.setParams(parms);

I just don't know how to add those tags within the <comHdr> and <WSCredentials> tags.
