emreaatalay22 / ksoap2-android Goto Github PK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Call a WS that returns a single-element string response
2. Try to get the response with getResponse()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Object expected. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using version 2.3 on debian

Please provide any additional information below.
I got the problem on the code, the solution is as easy as to do a
instanceof check and don't try to do the KvmSerializable cast. I've found
this on my first steps with WS creation and connection. Hope it helps ;)

In the API I can see the methods, but on this XML it does not work:

E.g. Prescription="false" and ProfessionallySourced="false" of the return
element are not recognized.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launing my app
2. Reaching the line of Http call

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
No idea what would be the proper response but the an error is thrown which
first lines look like this:
Couldn't create SOAP message. Expecting Envelope in namespace
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/, but got
http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I switching between version 11 and 12 for testing but usually I go with
version 12. I am programming for the Android OS Version 2.1.


Please provide any additional information below.
I already got a threat going with the sourcecode of my app with I problem I
guess I have solved by now =), here is the link:
http://code.google.com/p/ksoap2-android/issues/detail?id=20

Thanks a lot you folks!

The dependency kobjects-j2me uses some properties and feature which are 
not available in java.lang.System under j2me. To stay compatible I have 
created a fixed version without these classes (Actually only the ISODate 
and maybe the Base64 is interesting I guess for kSOAP2):

http://globalplatform.sourceforge.net/repo/m2-repository/net/sourceforge/
kobjects/kobjects-j2me/0.0-SNAPSHOT-20040926/

Error preverifying class org.kobjects.xmlrpc.Driver
    VERIFIER ERROR org/kobjects/xmlrpc/Driver.main([Ljava/lang/String;)V:
Cannot find class java/io/FileReader 

I have excluded the dependency and used my fixed version. The classifier 
"fixed" is used.

Can you adjust your version, so that this hack does not have to be done?

Hi everyone, I am trying to access a Webservice with kSOAP2 on an Android
Phone. I think the connection is being established, but the server won't
answer my request since I'm not providing a SOAP Action Header which seems
to be required in SOAP Version 1.1(please correct me if I'm wrong here)
which I have to use since the server does not support Version 1.2 . The
concrete Faultcode which is returning in the request looks like this:

faultactor  null    
faultcode   "S:Server" (id=830064966432)    
faultstring "String index out of range: -11" (id=830064966736)



The errorcode which is generated on the server (I'm running it on a
localhost) looks like this:

The relevant part of the WSDL (at least that's what I'm thinking) looks
like this:



<operation name="createContext">
<soap:operation soapAction=""/>
−
<input>
<soap:body use="literal" namespace="http://server.contextlayer.bscwi.de/"/>
</input>
−
<output>
<soap:body use="literal" namespace="http://server.contextlayer.bscwi.de/"/>
</output>
</operation>    

In my code I'm adding a Header, but it seems like I'm doing it wrong:

private static final String SOAP_ACTION  = "";
//...
SoapSerializationEnvelope soapEnvelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope
(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
soapEnvelope.setOutputSoapObject(Request);
AndroidHttpTransport aht = new AndroidHttpTransport (URL);
//...
aht.call(SOAP_ACTION, soapEnvelope);
        SoapPrimitive resultString = (SoapPrimitive)
soapEnvelope.getResponse();



Any advice would be great since I'm running out of ideas.. Thanks folks!
Note: I also posted this at StackOverflow.com
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2899392/ksoap2-and-soapaction-on-android)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.try to connect to a https soap sevrer

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
i was hoping that it would connect but i get "ERROR:java.io.IOException: 
Hostname <#######> was not verified

What version of the product are you using?
2.3


is there a different call for connecting to https soap servers?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Apply patch from issue 7 so SOAP faults can be parsed.
2. Make a SOAP call that returns a SOAP fault.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The SOAP "fault string" would be sensible to put here, better than an empty 
message.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
"ksoap2-android-assembly-2.3-jar-with-dependencies.jar" Aug 16 + patch from 
issue 7, Android 1.6.

Please provide any additional information below.
Patch attached to return faultstring.

It would be great if the project could publish the artifacts to maven central. 
You could use the approach documented here
https://docs.sonatype.com/display/NX/OSS+Repository+Hosting

then any users of the project would not have to add the custom repository 
and you would not have to maintain it either.. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. AndroidServiceConnection class uses classes from package 
org.apache.commons.httpclient, which is not available in android.jar
2. If you try to use AndroidHttpTransport class to call a web service, 
android application closes unexpectedly.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1, and  ksoap2-android-2.2-jar-with-
dependencies.jar (  Version 2.2 release of ksoap2-android with all 
dependencies included )
On windows XP.

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add lib folder to project
2. add ksoap2-android-2.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar to folder
3. add library to project

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When the library added, eclipse gave errors,like:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

kSOAP2-android2.2 with dependencies
Windows Vista SP2
Android SDK 1.5 Cupcake


Please provide any additional information below.

It appears that org.ksoap2.transport.AndroidServiceConnection is 
referencing a class that doesn't exist...is there a workaround?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Staring the Application, since it's quite small I think that should do
it here.


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Well actually I'm not quite sure what should be the output in the end, but
while debugging the app I noticed that it won't execute the line:

aht.call(SOAP_ACTION, soapEnvelope);
and the errorlog says the following:
expected: START_TAG {http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope}Envelope
(position:START_TAG <h1>@1:4 in java.io.InputStreamReader@43d1b8f8) 

Maybe you folks already know what's the problem is, but just to be sure
I'll provide the code of my app here, thanks a lot:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

Problem: ksoap2 does not serialize Object[]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.create a web service with a methode with a parameter which is an array of
objects
2.create an object (which extends SoapObject) client side, with that array
of objects into its properties.
3. perform a soap call passing that object

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect  my array of objects to be serialized into the soapEnvelope.
Instead i see that serialization throws an Exception. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
i am using ksoap2-android-assembly-2.4-jar-with-dependencies.jar under
Linux/Ubuntu, IDE Eclipse

Please provide any additional information below.

I get a Verifier error when preverifying the class for J2ME:

                    </configuration>

I guess for the base, the midp and the extras modules this switch is 
enough.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Hello...I found the problem the "old" org.apache.commons.httpclient.xxx
library..I'd like to recompile this project, but where are the sources?
2.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add  ksoap2-android-2.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar to the android project.
2. It gives error that AndroidHttpTransport class is already added.
3. Open jar file with winrar and check the org.ksoap2.transport package,
there are 2 duplicate class files are there.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
...possibly there is some error while building the jar.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

...Version 2.2 release of ksoap2-android with all dependencies included 

Please provide any additional information below.

Please remove the SVN checkout instructions from the page and give git 
instructions instead.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Just use the svn commands in the source tab to check out the code as 
read-only

It is very common for open source projects to provide a jar that contains the 
source code (like "xxx-sources.jar" or "xxx.src.jar"). This is especially 
useful when you need to do debugging in Eclipse, as it needs the source code 
attached.

However, you don't release a full src jar for the code in your jar, and also 
the svn repository that is documented in the "Source" tab is empty. Can you 
please provide us the source code? I believe it is in git, but it is definitely 
worth providing the source jar for many developers. I don't really need the 
code for committing changes, I just need to use it for debugging, and it would 
be great if you just provide the jar and release me from the burden of doing 
this every time I update my ksoap2 version.

I've been thinking a bit lately about what would make this library more
useful for me.  The library has always felt a bit half-finished to me...
there's too many things it should do, but doesn't.

Short of a more end-to-end solution like I've heard Apache Axis is, I think
it would be best to ensure that users of the library can more easily poke
at the raw XML.  Can things be refactored such that developers could choose
whether to use DOM, SAX, or XMLPULL?  In a way that lets them read and
write the SOAP body and headers, while still ensuring all necessary
attributes, etc. are present?

I'm not sure, but I'd like to look into it some.

A repo must be manually added. I had to add:

<repository>
            <id>ibiblio</id>
            <url>http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2</url>
        </repository>

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Call org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapObject.getPropertyInfo() with an
PropertyInfo object.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The PropertyInfo.value field is null whereas other fields are set correctly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.3

It would be nice if the node attribute patch could be integrated into the 
ksoap2 Android builds. 
Perhaps attributes can be solved today by writing your own marhals, but the 
patch seems to 
simplify the procedure a lot.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Make any SOAP call that returns a SOAP fault

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect org.ksoap2.SoapFault to be thrown. Instead, I see:

org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: expected: END_TAG 
{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Body (position:END_TAG 
</{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}soap:Fault>@1:650 in 
java.io.InputStreamReader@438fff30)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
This is "ksoap2-android-assembly-2.3-jar-with-dependencies.jar" which your 
downloads page lists as uploaded Aug 16, on Android 1.6.

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm looking at ksoap2-base/src/main/java/org/ksoap2/SoapFault.java and 
SoapFault.parse() looks suspicious. It calls parser.require for the start 
Fault tag, but not the end Fault tag.

Here is transport.responseDump:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><soap:Envelope

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a .net web service method GetAllCategories() which returns Category[] 
. Each Category is a class containing CategoryId (int) , Name (String) and 
Description (String)
2. Use this code
public static final String SOAP_ACTION = 
"http://vladozver.org/GetAllCategories";
    public static final String METHOD_NAME = "GetAllCategories";
    public static final String NAMESPACE = "http://vladozver.org/";
    public static final String URL = "http://192.168.1.3/Services/CategoryServices.asmx";
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.TextView01);

        SoapObject Request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
        Category C = new Category();
        C.CategoryId = 1;

        PropertyInfo pi = new PropertyInfo();
        pi.setName("Category");
        pi.setValue(C);
        pi.setType(C.getClass());
     //   Request.addProperty(pi);

        SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
        envelope.dotNet = true;
        envelope.setOutputSoapObject(Request);

        envelope.addMapping(NAMESPACE, "Category",new Category().getClass());
AndroidHttpTransport androidHttpTransport = new AndroidHttpTransport(URL);
try
        {
            androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);
SoapObject response = (SoapObject)envelope.getResponse();
Category[] res = new Category[response.getPropertyCount()];
            for (int i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
     // THROWS EXCEPTION
                Category CTry = (Category)response.getProperty(i);
            }
catch(Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
}

public class Category implements KvmSerializable
{
    public int CategoryId;
    public String Name;
    public String Description;
    @Override
    public Object getProperty(int arg0) {

        switch(arg0)
        {
        case 0:
            return CategoryId;
        case 1:
            return Name;
        case 2:
            return Description;
        }

        return null;
    }
    @Override
    public int getPropertyCount() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return 3;
    }
    @Override
    public void getPropertyInfo(int index, Hashtable arg1, PropertyInfo info) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        switch(index)
        {
        case 0:
            info.type = PropertyInfo.INTEGER_CLASS;
            info.name = "CategoryId";
            break;
        case 1:
            info.type = PropertyInfo.STRING_CLASS;
            info.name = "Name";
            break;
        case 2:
            info.type = PropertyInfo.STRING_CLASS;
            info.name = "Description";
            break;
        default:break;
        }
    }
    @Override
    public void setProperty(int index, Object value) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        switch(index)
        {
        case 0:
            CategoryId = Integer.parseInt(value.toString());
            break;
        case 1:
            Name = value.toString();
            break;
        case 2:
            Description = value.toString();
            break;
        default:
            break;
        }
    }
}

3. Run the code

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
A category array with the returned categories. Instead a cast exception occurs. 
I don't know how to access the result set of a web service that returns an 
array of objects, in my case Category objects.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest, i downloaded it yesterday. Windows 7, Eclipse.
