Web Services + WSDLs, SOAP and AXIS + Newbie Question

[colpwd]

Hi everyone, hows it going?

I am quite new to web services and XML and i was hoping i could get some assistance.

I am creating some server-side skeleton code to test against and i am trying to match XML response-code to some samples i have.

I have Axis 1.4 deployed on Tomcat 5.5 and i have a WSDL which i have developed into Java skeleton using WSDL2Java.
I have then deployed to Tomcat using the generated deploy.wsdd file.

This is an example of what i am trying to achieve from a response,

<soapenv:Envelope...
<soapenv:Body>
<ns1...
<... href="#id0"/>
<...href="#id1"/>
</ns1...>
<multiRef id0...
<... variables
<...
<...
</multiRef>
<multiRef id1 ....
<... variables
<...
<...
</multiRef>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

I am geting very close to this, except on of the variables in id1 is defined as another multiref tag, like follows.

<soapenv:Envelope...
<soapenv:Body>
<ns1...
<... href="#id0"/>
<...href="#id1"/>
</ns1...>
<multiRef id0...
<... variables
<...
<...
</multiRef>
<multiRef id1 ....
<... variables
<...
<... test href="#id2"
</multiRef>
<multiRef id="id2".... </multiRef>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

I was hoping to get some feedback as to how i can "edit the xml response".

Has anyone else ocme across this issue when using Axis and trying to match an XML response?

Thanks a lot!

Ok, i have done some deeper research and it seems as though the SOAP response message can be formatted, although the examples i saw were different to what i am doing here, so im still not entirely sure how.

Possibly altering the the client request message?

I have samples of both request and response. If i use the exact format of a client request SOAP message and paste this into soapUI, the response is still slightly different as i mentioned earlier.

Do i need to alter the WSDL and how its messages bind to the SOAP protocol? I i dont see how that would change the format of the response.

Thanks for reading.
