passing array in Axis method call

[thomas wilson]

Is it possible to pass an array in method call to web service? Is there such thing as XMLType.XSD_STRING []? In other words, if I want to pass a String array in Axis method call, can I do something like this?:

Service service = new Service();
Call call = (Call)service.createCall();
call.addParameter("StringParams", XMLType.XSD_STRING [], ParameterMode.IN);

Thank you

Hi Thomas,

You can pass a String array or object array in Webservices.
If you are using Apache Axis Java2WSDL and WSDL2Java you dont need to
worry about calling the method.

FYI: In WSDL you can see the String array as:
<complexType name="ArrayOf_xsd_string">
<complexContent>
<restriction base="soapenc:Array">
<attribute ref="soapenc:arrayType" wsdl:arrayType="xsd:string[]"/>
</restriction>
</complexContent>
</complexType>

In soap Implementation:

public java.lang.String[] getStringArray() throws java.rmi.RemoteException {
String[] strArr = new String[10];
strArr[0] = "abc";
return strArr;
}


I am trying to pass Object arrays (ie customized object arrays like Account[], Contact[]) I am getting "InvocationTargetException". If I place the
class files in Web-Inf\classes\ this error is gone. But I couldn't understand what is the problem....Please let me know if you come across the solution for this.

Hope this helps you.
