Hi,

I m a newbie BB developer trying to use ksoap on BB JDE 4.3 to connect to a web service.

I followed the steps given in this thread.

Downloaded ksoap2-j2me-core-prev-2.1.2.

Placed the above file in C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\bin.

Preverified the file with command preverify -classpath "C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\lib\net_rim_api.jar" ksoap2-j2me-core-prev-2.1.2.jar

Added the preverified file ( present in C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\bin) to my project in BB JDE 4.3 .

Did a build on the code and got the following output

Building Ksoap2
C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\bin\rapc.exe -quiet import=..\lib\net_rim_api.jar library=HelloWorldFolder\Ksoap2 HelloWorldFolder\Ksoap2.rapc warnkey=0x52424200;0x52525400;0x52435200 "C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\subash\HelloWorldFolder\Ksoap2Demo.java" "C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\jar\ksoap2-j2me-core-prev-2.1.2.jar" "C:\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\subash\HelloWorldProjectFolder\helloworld_jd e.png"

Build complete.

But when i run the program on the emulator, i m not seeing the app on the emulator. I ve given an icon , but it doesnt show up.

I dont know where the problem is . Do i have to have any other software up and running? Appreciateif you can help me.

Another thing to mention - i read somewhere that project dependencies have to be set. But when i right click the project and go to project dependencies, it shows ksoap2 , but it is disabled --> it does not allow me to select ksoap2.


Thanks

Hi

I am new to Java, Blackberry and ksoap2, so I was wrestling with this for a couple of days.

This article helped a lot:

h**p://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=63&articleType=ArticleView&arti cleId=102

If you need parameters, just use the addProperty method on the SoapObject to add them. And if you just have a string value as a return, you can always use (envelope.getResult()).toString() to get hold of it (instead of the vector stuff in the example).

Hope this helps. Sorry can't hotlink urls as I am a newbie

[darkdusky]

I'm new to blackberry and haven't worked in java in a long time.
Can some-one explain the benefits of using SOAP over the httpConnection method below (this is a snippet from a tutorial at: h t t p://w w w.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/tutorials/os-blackberry/section4.html


params.append("identifier", id);
params.append("data", data);
String url = "h t t p://ibm.msi-wireless.com/posttransaction.php?"
+ params.toString();
System.out.println(url);
//Connecting to Server
httpConnection = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url);
inputStream = httpConnection.openDataInputStream();

I posted a thread asking for the maximum size of a query string. I'm interested to know which of the 2 methods can handle large delimited lists the best.

hi

I have been using ksoap2 for a couple of days and i can't send the parameters to my web service,I can connect it but i don't know what's the problem for sending parameters.

this is my code


import org.ksoap2.*;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.*;
import org.ksoap2.transport.*;

public class webService {

public webService() {
String serviceUrl = "h t t p://192.168.44.250/SerW_SubirArch/SubirArch.asmx";
String serviceNamespace = "h t t p://192.168.44.250/SerW_SubirArch/";
String soapAction = "mx.com.medisist.WebService/SignosVitalesblack";
String methodName= "SignosVitalesblack";

SoapObject rpc = new SoapObject(serviceNamespace, methodName);

rpc.addProperty("idPaciente", String.valueOf(340).toString());
rpc.addProperty("glucosa",String.valueOf(120).toSt ring());
rpc.addProperty("Medicamento","Metformina tableta 1000mg");
rpc.addProperty("Cantidad",String.valueOf(5).toStr ing());
rpc.addProperty("medida","Pastillas");


SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);

envelope.bodyOut = rpc;
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.encodingStyle = SoapSerializationEnvelope.ENC;
envelope.setOutputSoapObject(rpc);

HttpTransport ht = new HttpTransport(serviceUrl);
ht.debug = true;
ht.setXmlVersionTag("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>");

int result= -1;
try {

ht.call(soapAction, envelope);

result = Integer.valueOf((envelope.getResult()).toString()) .intValue();


} catch (org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException ex2) {
} catch (Exception ex) {
String bah = ex.toString();
System.out.println(bah);

}

}
}





I would appreciate much if you could help me

hi everybody

finally, I could transfer parameters to my web service, my mistake was that i was writing on the variable *serviceNamespace something like this: String serviceNamespace = "h t t p://192.168.44.250/SerW_SubirArch/";
the situation was happening because i had another nameSpace on my web Service it was:


[WebService(Namespace = "mx.com.medisist.WebService")]
[WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]
[ToolboxItem(false)]
public class SubirArch : System.Web.Services.WebService{

furthermore I had to put the same name on my code variable *serviceNamespace because it has to be the same String to pass the parameters, now my new code is:




/*
* To change this template, choose Tools | Templates
* and open the template in the editor.
*/
package Medisist;

import org.ksoap2.*;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.*;
import org.ksoap2.transport.*;


public class webService {

public webService() {
String serviceUrl = "h t t p://192.168.44.250/SerW_SubirArch/SubirArch.asmx";
String serviceNamespace = "mx.com.medisist.WebService";
String soapAction = "mx.com.medisist.WebService/SignosVitalesblack";
String methodName="SignosVitalesblack";

SoapObject rpc = new SoapObject(serviceNamespace, methodName);


SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);

rpc.addProperty("idPaciente","340");
rpc.addProperty("glucosa","120");
rpc.addProperty("Medicamento","Metformina tableta 1000mg");
rpc.addProperty("Cantidad","5");
rpc.addProperty("medida","Pastillas");


envelope.setOutputSoapObject(rpc);
envelope.bodyOut = rpc;
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.encodingStyle = SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSI;


HttpTransport ht = new HttpTransport(serviceUrl);
ht.debug = true;
ht.setXmlVersionTag("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>");

String result= null;
try {

ht.call(soapAction, envelope);


result = (envelope.getResult()).toString();


} catch (org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException ex2) {
} catch (Exception ex) {
String bah = ex.toString();
System.out.println(bah);

}

}
}

I appreciate much and i hope that this code can be helpfully

[ShannyMan]

Excellent post! What about sending a complex type? I can't seem to find much information on sending one, there's plenty available on recieving it back in the response, and I do have that part working.

Thanks.

[cagreen]

Thanks to jeckerlin for the initial post and everyone after for their contributions. I still struggled for longer than I would have like getting Eclipse, KSoap and the BB to play nice. I have since summarized my experience going from a clean machine to getting KSoap up and running on the device. I hope this helps someone else. It can be found here: w w w.craigagreen.com/index.php?/Blog/blackberry-and-net-webservice-tutorial-part-1.html

[koic]

Well, that is a good idea!
But I bet it will be much more complicated
when it comes to deal with complex() response from web server.
I looked over internet and could not find any good example
related to de-serialization of that response with ksoap2.
I am not sure if envelope.addMapping() works at all.
In my development I had to use SAX for that purpose,
which worked just fine

[cagreen]

I can't seem to get both complex return types and input parameters working at the same time. They are mutually exclusive for me!

I was initially able to pass strings to my .NET service and return a string... no problem. But to return complex types I had to set the SoapRpcMethod attribute on the server. That now allows me to return a complex type, but now my input parameters aren't properly deserialized on the server. I've tried numerous things, even instantiating my own SoapPrimitive instance (as seen below).
I'm hoping that it's something as trivial as a bad namespace that I've overlooked. Any insight is much appreciated.

Java Client:

String serviceUrl = "h t t p : //xx.xxx.xxx.xxx/HelloWorldService/Service.
String serviceNamespace = "h t t p ://tempuri.org/";
String soapAction = "h t t p : //tempuri.org/HelloWorld";		
SoapObject rpc = new SoapObject(serviceNamespace, "HelloWorld");		
SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
		    
envelope.bodyOut = rpc;
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.encodingStyle = SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSD;
envelope.addMapping("h t t p : //tempuri.org/encodedTypes", "Complex", new Complex().getClass());
		
HttpTransport ht = new HttpTransport(serviceUrl);
ht.setXmlVersionTag("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>");
ht.debug = true;
    

try 
{	    		
//	rpc.addProperty("a","45");
//     	rpc.addProperty("b","54");
	rpc.addProperty("a",new SoapPrimitive(SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSD,"String","45"));
       	rpc.addProperty("b",new SoapPrimitive(SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSD,"String","54"));
       	ht.call(soapAction, envelope);
      	SoapObject body = (SoapObject)envelope.bodyIn;
        String req = ht.requestDump;
        String resp = ht.responseDump;

        ... and so on...

.NET Web Service:

    [WebService(Namespace = "h t t p ://tempuri.org/")]
    [WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.None)]
    public class Service : System.Web.Services.WebService
    {
        [SoapRpcMethod]
        [WebMethod]  
        public Complex[] HelloWorld(String a, String b)
        {
         ...
        }
     }

[koic]

Did not make sense to show this example, - it's everywhere and it works.
Again, try to use SAX parser to de-serialize complex response

[cagreen]

Perhaps I wasn't clear in my previous post. I'm good with the deserializing the complex type back on the client.
My question now is "what am I doing incorrectly that is making my input parameters on the server be null"? As I mentioned earlier, I did have this working, but not when using SoapRpcMethod on the server.

By showing my sample code I'm hoping that there is something obvious that I've overlooked that someone could point out.

Thanks

I would check requestDump and responseDump first.
Input params types should be exactly the same in both dumps.

[narendra]

Hi,

I am using this tutorial and config project according to the mentioned steps. but when I run my project , an runtime error occurs:

"JVM Error : 104"
"Uncaught Runtime Exception"

How I run my project is :
Right click on project > Run As>Blackberry Simulator

Is this the right way ?

please give me more information about this type of applications.

Thanks.

[nirmalsat]

Hi, I ve been tryin to do the same thing but with eclipse. In step 4 u mention that we need to go to project dependencies.. The same was mentioned in another post .
But am not able to find it.. Please help me out

I am having the same problem. That is I can send parameters OR get back complex objects, but, not both. The two cases are:

- send parameters successfully and get back an untyped string that looks like this: "anyType{Id=-70; someList=anyType{" where anyType is not useful to me.

- Or, my parameters are sent as nulls, and I get something useful back. Something like this: "ObjectName1{Id=-3; someList=[ObjecName2{Id=-6;" where ObjectName1 & ObjectName2 are interesting to me.

The behavior is changed by including the [SoapRpcMethod] attribute above the method in my web service. With the attribute, I get the object back in a useful format, but, can not send parameters. Without it, the opposite.

Anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks,
Scott

Modified steps appear to be:
1) You need a preverified ksoap2-j2me-core-2.1.2.jar (attached) file. The ones from the kSoap site aren’t preverified and when attempting to do so it failed. I attempting to go through a preverification process but have been unsuccessful. I obtained the attached jar from a post by richard.puckett of a preverified ksoap2-j2me-core-2.1.2.jar file.

Since I'm new to the forums, I cant specify a direct link to the file. If you do a search for a thread called 'Preverified ksoap2' you can find Richard's link
to the file.

2) Within your JDE project, create a ‘lib’ folder. Using Windows Explorer, create a lib folder within your project and put the ksoap2-j2me-core-2.1.2.jar file in there.


3) Create a new 'Library' in your JDE workspace called kSoap. Add the preverified ksoap2-j2me-core-2.1.2.jar in the lib folder to that library.

4) Set the project dependencies to depend on the new library. Right click your main project -> select project dependencies -> select the kSoap library as a dependency

5) compile w/o errors

Below is simple code to call a .Net web service:

code extract from java file:
String serviceUrl = "<url to web service>l";
String serviceNamespace = "h t t p : / / tempuri . org /";
String soapAction = "h t t p : / / tempuri.org / HelloWorld";

SoapObject rpc = new SoapObject(serviceNamespace, "HelloWorld");

SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);

envelope.bodyOut = rpc;
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.encodingStyle = SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSD;

HttpTransport ht = new HttpTransport(serviceUrl);
ht.debug = true;

try
{
ht.call(soapAction, envelope);

String result = (envelope.getResult()).toString();


}
catch(org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException ex2){

}
catch(Exception ex){
String bah = ex.toString();

}


Code Extract from .Net web Service
namespace TestService
{
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for Service1
/// </summary>
[WebService(Namespace = "h t t p : / / tempuri . org /")]
[WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]
[ToolboxItem(false)]
// To allow this Web Service to be called from script, using ASP.NET AJAX, uncomment the following line.
// [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService]
public class Service1 : System.Web.Services.WebService
{

[WebMethod]
public string HelloWorld()
{
return "Hello World" + System.DateTime.Now.ToString();
}
}
}

This may work, I have gotten it to work using similar code, but handling the response is missing something I think. This is what I have:

public String hackToGetResponse(String key, String response) {
	System.out.println("hackToGetResponse:" + response);
	String start = "anyType{key=" + key + "; value=";
	String end = "; }";
 
	if (response.indexOf(start) == -1 ||
		response.indexOf(end) == -1) return "";
 
	System.out.println("hackToGetResponse:" + "response.substring(0, " + response.indexOf(start)  + ").substring(0, " + response.indexOf(end) + ");");
	response = response.substring(response.indexOf(start) + start.length());
	response = response.substring(0, response.indexOf(end));
 
	if (response.indexOf("anyType{}") != -1) return "";
 
	return response;
}

and then after the request is sent call hackToGetResponse with:

SoapObject result = (SoapObject) ((SoapObject)envelope.getResponse()).getProperty(0);
 
		key = hackToGetResponse("serviceToken", result.toString());

This is necessary because the response SoapObject doesn't make it easy to get at values. If this code doesn't work for you (I'm using PHP as the server so your server's output may be different) pay close attention to what's outputted in the console and modify the parsing code.
