Sending array of string as a parameter to web service method using JAXRPC

Question

I've got problem sending an array of string as parameter to a web service method, given in a specific wsdl. When am trying to send an array of strings, I get the following error.

Error:

AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException

faultString: org.xml.sax.SAXException: Bad types (class java.util.ArrayList &gt;

Code written:

Call call1 = objService1.createCall(port1);
call1.setTargetEndpointAddress(targetEndPoint);
call1.addParameter("int_1", XMLType.XSD_INT, Integer.class,
                ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_1", QNAME_TYPE_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_2", QNAME_TYPE_STRING_ARRAY,
                java.lang.String[].class, ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_3", QNAME_TYPE_STRING_ARRAY,
                java.lang.String[].class, ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_4", QNAME_TYPE_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_5", QNAME_TYPE_STRING_ARRAY,
                java.lang.String[].class, ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_6", QNAME_TYPE_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
        call1.addParameter("String_7", QNAME_TYPE_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);

        // --- Done adding PARAM's

        String[] attrVals = { "description", "test from soapUI",
                "customer", ticketHandle, "type", "I" };
        String[] attributes = { "status", "ref_num" };

        Object[] params1 = { new Integer(sid), ticketHandle, attrVals, "",
                "cr_tpl:400005", attributes, "", "" };

        String res = null;
        try {
            call1.invoke(params1);

Update-1:

I added a class named ArrayOfString with following code in it. protected java.lang.String[] string;

public ArrayOfString() {
}

public ArrayOfString(java.lang.String[] string) {
    this.string = string;
}

public java.lang.String[] getString() {
    return string;
}

public void setString(java.lang.String[] string) {
    this.string = string;
}

and thus did the following, ArrayOfString attrVals = new ArrayOfString(); attrVals.setString(new String[] { "customer", "test from soapUI", "customer", ticketHandle, "type", "I" });

Similarly, for attributes variable of type 'ArrayOfString'.

But now, I get the following error::

AxisFault faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException faultSubcode: faultString: java.io.IOException: No serializer found for class ArrayOfString in registry org.apache.axis.encoding.TypeMappingDelegate@ef2c60 faultActor: faultNode: faultDetail: {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}stackTrace:java.io.IOException: No serializer found for class ArrayOfString in registry org.apache.axis.encoding.TypeMappingDelegate@ef2c60 at org.apache.axis.encoding.SerializationContext.serializeActual(SerializationContext.java:1507) at org.apache.axis.encoding.SerializationContext.serialize(SerializationContext.java:980) at org.apache.axis.encoding.SerializationContext.outputMultiRefs(SerializationContext.java:1055) at org.apache.axis.message.SOAPBody.outputImpl(SOAPBody.java:145) at org.apache.axis.message.SOAPEnvelope.outputImpl(SOAPEnvelope.java:478) at org.apache.axis.message.MessageElement.output(MessageElement.java:1208) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:2757) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:2443) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:2366) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:1812)

Update-2:

Here is an update on the problem that am facing. In the WSDL file, I found something like this,

complexType name="ArrayOfString"
sequence
element maxOccurs="unbounded" name="string" type="xsd:string" / 
/sequence
/complexType

Well, now that am meant to use this method,

 <element name="createRequest">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="sid" type="xsd:int" /> 
<element name="creatorHandle" type="xsd:string" /> 
<element name="attrVals" type="impl:ArrayOfString" /> 
<element name="propertyValues" type="impl:ArrayOfString" /> 
<element name="template" type="xsd:string" /> 
<element name="attributes" type="impl:ArrayOfString" /> 
<element name="newRequestHandle" type="xsd:string" /> 
<element name="newRequestNumber" type="xsd:string" /> 
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>

Now, I tried sending the parameters 'attrVals','attibutes' like this

ArrayOfstring attrVals = new ArrayOfstring();
    ArrayOfstring attributes = new ArrayOfstring();
    attrVals.setString(new String[] { "customer", "test from soapUI",
            "customer", ticketHandle, "type", "I" });
    attributes.setString(new String[] { "status", "ref_num" });

Its throwing the following exception

AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException

faultString: java.io.IOException: No serializer found for class org.tempuri.complex.data.arrays.xsd.ArrayOfstring in registry org.apache.axis.encoding.TypeMappingDelegate@11e1e67

Did you try WSDL2Java to generate client code with types? you can get the ArrayOfString and its serializer from there. — Asad Rasheed

I tried WSDL2JAVA CodeGen plugin for eclipse. I'd enetered all the required details but it gives me -'InvocationTargetException'. — Anuj Balan

did you check your web-service is up? it seams that either you use the wrong url or the web-service is down. — Asad Rasheed

Well this problem has been solved. And I have updated the answer in the end below(after Update-2). But the problem with WSDL2JAVA CodeGen is still persisting. — Anuj Balan

The above error has been solved. I simply registered the ArrayOfString class, String[] with the TypeRegistryMapping class. Now, it doesn't throw the above serialize error. Code edited is:

    ServiceFactory factory1 = ServiceFactory.newInstance();
    QName qnTick = new QName("http://soapinterop.org/xsd", "ArrayOfString");
    Service serviceTickReq = factory1.createService(qnTick);
    // Service serviceTickReq = new org.apache.axis.client.Service();
    TypeMappingRegistry tmr = (TypeMappingRegistry) serviceTickReq
            .getTypeMappingRegistry();
    TypeMapping tm = (TypeMapping) tmr.getDefaultTypeMapping();
    tm.register(ArrayOfString.class, qnTick, new BeanSerializerFactory(
            ArrayOfString.class, qnTick), new BeanDeserializerFactory(
            ArrayOfString.class, qnTick));

    TypeMappingRegistry tmr1 = (TypeMappingRegistry) serviceTickReq
            .getTypeMappingRegistry();
    TypeMapping tm1 = (TypeMapping) tmr1.getDefaultTypeMapping();
    tm1.register(String[].class, qnTick, new BeanSerializerFactory(
            String[].class, qnTick), new BeanDeserializerFactory(
            String[].class, qnTick));
