how to convert soap to java

[everson santos]

I have a java WS that get a soap from a php WS. I'd like know which object to use as parameter on method and how can i unmarshall the xml

@WebMethod
public void testList(@WebParam(name = "list") ArrayList list)

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="http://phpwebservice_producer/orderplaced" xmlns:ns2="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap"> <SOAP-ENV:Header/> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <ns1:testList> <lista> <ns2:Map> <item> <key>id</key> <value>100</value> </item> <item> <key>name</key> <value>ok</value> </item> </ns2:Map> <ns2:Map> <item> <key>id</key> <value>101</value> </item> <item> <key>name</key> <value>ok</value> </item> </ns2:Map> ...

That depends on WSDL provided by your PHP service. You can see details in that.

ArrayList is NOT a standard SOAP type - think in terms of an array of standard SOAP variables.

If you really need an ArrayList (which I doubt) it is easy enough to make one.

Hii

The value passed through list param came as ElementNSImpl, I used ArrayList because php client send as param an array

***************************
]while($xx = pg_fetch_assoc($result) ){
$lista[]=$xx;
}
//call webservice
$res = $client->testList(new SoapParam($lista, "lista"));

***************************

I'm taking org.apache.xerces.dom.ElementNSImpl as value inside list object

 public void testList(@WebParam(name = "list") ArrayList list)  

But i don't know what's the best API to use to do it easily .... I've seen saaj, jaxb until xerces where ElementNSImpl is from

Any advice ?

Everson.

The easiest way to create a Java client is from a WSDL that is usually provided on the Server. The program that creates the client for you is called Wsdl2Java. You can find it using your favorite search tool.
