CF10: Consuming SOAP-Service - Axis2 Enumeration

[Maertsch]

Hi all,

Im trying to call a webservice with a complex-within-complex structure. Here an extract form the wsdl:

<simpleType name="ProductType">
    <restriction base="xsd:string">
     <enumeration value="Car"/>
     <enumeration value="Truck"/>
    </restriction>
   </simpleType>
<complexType name="Product">
    <sequence>
     <element name="id" type="xsd:string"/>
     <element name="type" type="impl:ProductType"/>
     </sequence>
</complexType>

If i call the webservice with a structure as Parameter

<cfset local.ws.addProduct( { 
    id: 'p01234',
    type: 'Truck'
} )>

I get an Error.

Cannot perform web service invocation addProduct.
The fault returned when invoking the web service operation is:
org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: product cannot be null!! 

If i change the wsdl file, so the Type of the element "type" is also "xsd:string", then it works perfectly. Problem is, changing the wsdl file by myself is a absolute no-go, since i have to consume it form our customers.

Based on reserches i've found that older Axis2 version didn't implement the Enumeration-Type, but the one shipped with CF10 should (Axis2 v1.7).

I've found this Thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/88154

I tried to copy the generated stubs for productType in the cfusion/wwwroot/WEB-INF/classes and create a object with createObject("java","productType") which -of course- generated an Error saying that i cannot create from abstract classes. sigh.

Did anyone managed to call an Webservice with Enumerations in WSDL?

Best regards,
Maertsch

Set the wsversion to 1 and try again.

<cfscript>
  args = { refreshWSDL=true, wsversion=1 };
  ws = createObject("webservice", "http://yourwebserivce?wsdl", args);
  result = ws.addProduct( {

                                         id: 'p01234',

                                         type: 'Truck'

                                           } )>


</cfscript>
