how to Call ksoap web service from android?
I have a small confusion, in our mobile app an ksoap web service called from ios like below : and getting data properly. Here in the following web service you can see from following code, there are some parameters need to pass to the web service.
-(void)callwebservice{
NSString *soapMessage = [NSString stringWithFormat:
@"<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\"><s:Body><Calculate xmlns=\"http://tempuri.org/\"><inputRate>%@</inputRate><rateFrequency xmlns:a=\"http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/FusionPeople.MobileContractor.DomainModel\" xmlns:i=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\"><a:RateFrequencyId>0</a:RateFrequencyId><a:RateFrequencyName>%@</a:RateFrequencyName></rateFrequency><nonTaxableExpense>%@</nonTaxableExpense><expenseFrequency xmlns:a=\"http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/FusionPeople.MobileContractor.DomainModel\" xmlns:i=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\"><a:RateFrequencyId>0</a:RateFrequencyId><a:RateFrequencyName>%@</a:RateFrequencyName></expenseFrequency></Calculate></s:Body></s:Envelope>\n",txtinputrate.text,lblrate.text,txtexpenses.text,lblexpense.text
];
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@MobileContractorCalculationService.svc",[MobileContractorAppDelegate getstrIpAddress] ]];
NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
NSString *msgLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d",[soapMessage length]];
[theRequest addValue:@"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[theRequest addValue:@"http://tempuri.org/IMobileContractorCalculationService/Calculate" forHTTPHeaderField:@"SOAPAction"];
[theRequest addValue: msgLength forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Length"];
[theRequest setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
[theRequest setHTTPBody: [soapMessage dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSURLConnection *theConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:theRequest delegate:self];
if( theConnection ){
webData = [NSMutableData data] ;
}
}
And other side at android side i have tried so many ways to call this web service and pass data to web service .But every time i getting server side error code: 415, Please somebody help me and tell me how to pass this hierarchical data to this type of ksoap web service....
I have tried following code :
try {
SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
request.addProperty("inputRate", 1000);
SoapObject rate = new SoapObject(SOAP_ACTION, "rateFrequency");
PropertyInfo info = new PropertyInfo();
info.setName("RateFrequencyId");
info.setValue(0);
rate.addProperty(info);
PropertyInfo info2 = new PropertyInfo();
info2.setName("RateFrequencyName");
info2.setValue("Hourly");
rate.addProperty(info2);
request.addProperty("rateFrequency", rate);
request.addProperty("nonTaxableExpense", 500);
SoapObject exp = new SoapObject(SOAP_ACTION, "expenseFrequency");
PropertyInfo info3 = new PropertyInfo();
info3.setName("RateFrequencyId");
info3.setValue(0);
exp.addProperty(info3);
PropertyInfo info4 = new PropertyInfo();
info4.setName("RateFrequencyName");
info4.setValue("Hourly");
exp.addProperty(info4);
request.addProperty("expenseFrequency", exp);
Log.v("", "=========== Request : " + request);
SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new
SoapSerializationEnvelope(
SoapEnvelope.VER11);
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
HttpTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransportSE(URL);
try {
androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);
SoapPrimitive response = (SoapPrimitive) envelope.getResponse();
Log.v("myApp",
"========================== Res" + response.toString());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
But it getting following error :
09-09 14:33:18.054: V/(957): =========== Request : Calculate{inputRate=1000; rateFrequency=rateFrequency{RateFrequencyId=0; RateFrequencyName=Hourly; }; nonTaxableExpense=500; expenseFrequency=expenseFrequency{RateFrequencyId=0; RateFrequencyName=Hourly; }; }

Answer
try Following Samples.
Hope this will solve your problem
I use the following method to call ksoap web-servie
public String getServiceResponse(String nameSpace, String methodName,
String soapAction, String Url, List<PropertyInfo> mPropertyInfo) {
String mResponse = "";
SoapObject request = new SoapObject(nameSpace, methodName);
SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(
SoapEnvelope.VER11);
if (mPropertyInfo != null) {
for (PropertyInfo propertyInfo : mPropertyInfo) {
request.addProperty(propertyInfo);
}
}
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
HttpTransportSE ht = new HttpTransportSE(Url);
ht.debug = true;
try {
ht.call(soapAction, envelope);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (XmlPullParserException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
mResponse = envelope.getResponse().toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return mResponse;
}
