Doubt regarding XML spy.

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to test the given webservice before Implementing the Interface.

1) I opned the Altova XML Spy,

2) i opned the SOAP drop down menu bar as it is appearing on top.

3) i click on Create new soap request, then i entered the given WSDL file through Browse button, then i click on button "OK".

4) After that i am not able to find any difference in XML SPY, any one please let me know where i have done mistake.

Regards

Hi

Did you follow the following steps for Testing the Scenario Using a SOAP Client:

1)In the XML Spy® menu, choose SOAP -> Create new SOAP request. In the dialog window, select your wsdl file

2)XML Spy® now creates a proposal for the SOAP request, which you can edit.

3)In the menu, choose SOAP -> Send request to server

4)If the request is successful you will receive a SOAP response, which is empty in an asynchronous scenario.

Thanks

Hi Monica,

thanks for your valuble information.

for down loading WSDL from this URL : /people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/03/23/rfcxiwebservice--a-complete-walkthrough-part-1

i copied whatever in this thread in wordpad saved it as "filename.wsdl"

is it correct way?

1)In the XML Spy® menu, choose SOAP -> Create new SOAP request. In the dialog window, select your wsdl file

after i have done as above step i am not able to find any thing.

Thanks

Boss,

Ur WSDL is not proper....i got ur problem...

<i>i copied whatever in this thread in wordpad saved it as "filename.wsdl"

is it correct way?>></i>

NOT CORRECT!!!!

u have to remove the character "-"......do one thing....open the WSDL(what u have saved) in XMP spy ...and manually remove all "-".....after that...check it in "grid"....

Now u will get what u want.....

save the code as <u>FILE NAME</u>.WSDL

Now it will work....

you need to create WSDL from your scenarion in ID and select that WSDL and you can make request.

if you are doing SOAP as sender then create wsdl for the sender interface(outbound) and it asks for URL then give similar to this

http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=party:service:channel

port:J2EE port.

Party:if you dont have leave it blank

service:your service name

Channel: CC name for your SOAP sender

Dhanush,

I think you can just ignore this error...for this particular wsld lots of people are getting error in XML Spy..

Just upload this in IR. It will work.

dear dhanush,

r u kidding??????????

i have given u the WSDL above....copy it and save it ...open with XML spy.....

I have tested it...its working fine...thats why I have pasted it.....

Check it in Grid,Text,WSDL/Scheme.......evreywhere it should work fine.

hi dhanush,

not a problem

r u sure about ur xml spy ??? was it install properly ?? check with some WSDL.....

if ok.....then do a last try man.....

save the wsdl i have pasted as "distance.wsdl"... and try to import it in IR.

I guess u know how to import WSDL into IR. Still if u don't know...

go to Externel defination->new->give any name->in catagory select "WSDL"->now u can upload the WSDL file...

after uploading save it...and go to "message" tab.... u can see lots of messages..

viz... getDistance etc......

If it shows any messages.... that means ur XML spy have some problem....

Hi dhanush,

Go to FILE->OPEN->Choose the correct WSDL->go to SOAP->Create new request->click on ok->u will get (please select a soap operation name)->select the message interface->ok->again go to SOAP->send request to server.
