The AndroidSOAP is a "yet another" SOAP client for Android platform, it is compatible with 1.5+ versions and uses Reflection API.
But... this is only a proof-of-concept library, I've tested it with JBoss WebService stack, see and/or try the example. |
Using AndroidSOAP is a very easy way to call SOAP services, because it is based on JAX-WS interfaces. You can use all interfaces that the 'wsimport' generates from the WSDL.
/** * Creates a request, it is a JAX-WS generated class */ ListSkinPacksRequest request = new ListSkinPacksRequest(); /** * Put it into a 'request' map */ Map<String, Object> parameters = new HashMap<String, Object>(); parameters.put("request", request); /** * Create an envelope with namespace and create a body with operation name 'listSkinPacks' */ Envelope envelope = new SimpleEnvelope("http://skinpack.pop.javaforum.hu/"); envelope.setHeader(new SimpleHeader()); envelope.setBody(new SimpleBody("listSkinPacks", parameters)); /** * Creates a transport (HTTP or HTTPS) with an optional username/password */ HttpsTransport transport = new HttpsTransport("https://services.power.of.planets.hu/PoP-SkinPack-remote/listSkinPacks", "androidsoap.demo@javaforum.hu", "demopassword"); /** * Set the 'trust all' flag, if necessary */ transport.setTrustAll(Boolean.TRUE); /** * Call a service, the result arrives into the JAX-WS class */ ListSkinPacksResponse response = transport.call(envelope, ListSkinPacksResponse.class); /** * You can use the result as a normal bean */ for (SkinPackMetadata metadata : response.getReturn().getSkinPacksList()) { String fileName = metadata.getFileName(); String name = metadata.getName(); } |
Can you see? The lists are lists, the classes are classes, the values are in the properties, just like in the JAX-WX client...
If any field has XmlElement annotation in the generated source, you need add jaxb-api into your Android project, like this:
And add coreLibrary into theĀ configuration of the android-maven-plugin:

If you have a patch, don't hesitate, send me as fast you can...
If you need a feature, create an issue...
The entire project (with dependencies) managed by Maven, if you aren't using Maven, you need some jars to add your project's CLASSPATH:
