Hi,

Hoping someone can help. I’ve generated a wsdl file from some web service classes that use annotations, and deployed it successfully on my app server. I then copied the wsdl to a new project, and have used the ‘Test With Web Services Explorer’ to test it. When I did this however, the parameter that gets passed in is null. I understand that this is normally caused by the fully qualified xml name(s) being different, but I used the same wsdl I’m not sure why that would be. Would anyone be able to tell me what I’m doing wrong, or how I can identify the msmatch? The wsdl code is below…

Many thanks,
Neil

… so my initial attempts were done by just entering the email and password, and removing the quotation (which I now realise was required). I would have expected if to fail validation in this situation, but it didn’t – and just passed a null quotationSubmission through instead. Why would that be?

Thanks again,
Neil

Neil,

It might be because the quotation isn’t required (no use=required on it) and so removing it doesn’t fail validation but may pass a null for the quotation. I suggest you also cross post to Web Services development related forums for better support on this query.

Let us know if you see any issues.
