C#, Java, Apache SOAP 1.1 and Arrays?

[helldiversafe-news]

Hi all,

I will use a apache soap service with an .net c# client and have a
problem with an complex array:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
<faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Client</faultcode>
<faultstring>No Deserializer found to deserialize a ':link'

using encoding style
'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'.</faultstring>


<faultactor>/uimxDEWeb/services/CreateLogicalDocument</faultactor>
</SOAP-ENV:Fault>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>


With the wsdl tool from axis I have generated an wsdl file and imported

it with the wsdl.exe from the visual studio. With the proxy class it is

possible to call some services, but one of them expects an array of an
complex type. When the apache soap server sends the complex type array
in a response it works, but not it the c# request. The encoding is set

to rpc.

So I have send the request with an java application to compare these
and they are different:

Is it possible to pass an array from an c# client to an apache
webservice or is it a known issue? Does somebody have an solution for
this problem? Can I change the soap request from C#?
Many thanks in advance...

You can't use soap encoding, ie binding style 'rpc encoded' with .net .
Try wrapped document literal. soap encoded arrays are especially evil
and may never even be supported by the later versions of apache soap -
axis2.

hi iksrazal,

thanks for your hint, but it did not work.
If i change the encoding to wrapped literal i receive the following
error message in the constuctor of the generated proxy class:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException'
occurred in system.xml.dll

Additional information: There was an error reflecting type
'CreateLogicalDocument.ResponseContextBaseDTO'.

Any other ideas?

Did you find the solution to this issue? I have added a web reference to my C# WinForm application. The type for the webservice WSDL is wrapped.

The reference.CS file was autogenerated. When I create the webservice object

CustomWebService.TestService1 myWebService;
myWebService = new CustomWebService.TestService1();

I receive an exception error:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in system.xml.dll

There was an error reflecting type....

Any idea what I could try next?

Thanks
