Cannot send complex type as method parameter
Hi!
I'm using a kSOAP 1.2 client and i'm having trouble executing a method that takes an object
of complex type as parameter:
method:
public void addSquareDetail(SquareDetail sd){/stuff}
-SquareDetail is a java bean class that implements KvmSerializable
- a mapping was added to classmap
-legacy namespace is not an issue (i AM able to execute the following methods successfully
over kSOAP):
-getting one SquareDetail object
-getting a vector of squareDetail objects
Here's how i'm trying to call the 'send' method:
ClassMap classMap = new ClassMap();
classMap.addMapping("urn:SquareWebService/types", "SquareDetail", (new
SquareDetail()).getClass());
System.out.println("add one SquareDetail");
request = new SoapObject(serviceURN, "addSquareDetail");
sd = new SquareDetail();
request.addProperty("SquareDetail_1", sd);
tx = new HttpTransport(this.endPointURL, "addSquareDetail");
tx.debug = true;
tx.setClassMap(classMap);
tx.call(request); //exception here
(above:)
private String endPointURL = "http://localhost:8080/SquareWebService/SquareWebService";
protected static final String serviceURN = "urn:SquareWebService/wsdl";
Error(from server, Sun ONE App Server7):
SoapFault - faultcode: 'env:Server' faultstring: 'Internal Server Error (deserialization
error: unexpected XML reader state. expected: END but found: START: someInt)' faultactor:
'null' detail: null
Here are request/response dumps:

So, apparently, the request message is not understood by the server. what exactly is it
missing, and how can i add/correct that? (my guess in SquareDetail_1 xmlns="" should be
"urn:SquareWebService/types", although it's just a guess AND i don't know how to make kSOAP
get it in there)
I'm not sure what kind of SOAP parser my app server utilizes, but i'm guessing it's an
apache product (how can i tell?). I also have a WSDL file available, should anyone be
willing to look at it, please let me know
thanks
