  Help Needed in Xml Parsing

  Nov 18, 2019 09:11 PM|born2win|LINK

  Hi,

  I am trying to call web service with no proxy and i am able to achieve it. below the wrapper am using to call the service.

  public static class SOAPHelper
      {
          /// <summary>
          /// Sends a custom sync SOAP request to given URL and receive a request
          /// </summary>
          /// <param name="url">The WebService endpoint URL</param>
          /// <param name="action">The WebService action name</param>
          /// <param name="parameters">A dictionary containing the parameters in a key-value fashion</param>
          /// <param name="soapAction">The SOAPAction value, as specified in the Web Service's WSDL (or NULL to use the url parameter)</param>
          /// <param name="useSOAP12">Set this to TRUE to use the SOAP v1.2 protocol, FALSE to use the SOAP v1.1 (default)</param>
          /// <returns>A string containing the raw Web Service response</returns>
          public static string SendSOAPRequest(string url, string action, Dictionary<string, string> parameters, string soapAction = null, bool useSOAP12 = false)
          {
              // Create the SOAP envelope
              XmlDocument soapEnvelopeXml = new XmlDocument();
              var xmlStr = (useSOAP12)
                  ? @"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>
                      <soap12:Envelope xmlns:xsi=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance""
                        xmlns:xsd=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema""
                        xmlns:soap12=""http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"">
                        <soap12:Body>
                          <{0} xmlns=""{1}"">{2}</{0}>
                        </soap12:Body>
                      </soap12:Envelope>"
                  : @"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>
                      <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=""http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/""
                          xmlns:xsi=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance""
                          xmlns:xsd=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"">

                          </soap:Body>
                      </soap:Envelope>";
              string parms = string.Join(string.Empty, parameters.Select(kv => String.Format("<{0}>{1}</{0}>", kv.Key, kv.Value)).ToArray());
              var s = String.Format(xmlStr, action, new Uri(url).GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Authority) + "/", parms);
              soapEnvelopeXml.LoadXml(s);
  
              // Create the web request
              HttpWebRequest webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
              webRequest.Headers.Add("SOAPAction", soapAction ?? url);
              webRequest.ContentType = (useSOAP12) ? "application/soap+xml;charset=\"utf-8\"" : "text/xml;charset=\"utf-8\"";
              webRequest.Accept = (useSOAP12) ? "application/soap+xml" : "text/xml";
              webRequest.Method = "POST";
  
              // Insert SOAP envelope
              using (Stream stream = webRequest.GetRequestStream())
              {
                  soapEnvelopeXml.Save(stream);
              }
  
              // Send request and retrieve result
              string result;
              using (WebResponse response = webRequest.GetResponse())
              {
                  using (StreamReader rd = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
                  {
                      result = rd.ReadToEnd();
                  }
              }
              return result;
          }
      }

  Finally, i am trying to deserialize as below:

  var str = SOAPHelper.SendSOAPRequest(URL, "process", parameters);
  var rawXML = XDocument.Parse(str);
                  Service.Envelope deserializedObject;
                  using (var reader = rawXML.CreateReader(System.Xml.Linq.ReaderOptions.None))
                  {
                      var ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Service.Envelope));
                      deserializedObject = (Service.Envelope)ser.Deserialize(reader);
                  }

  When i run the applicatiion, am getting error as below

  {"There is an error in XML document (0, 0)."}

  I am not sure where the error is coming from. please help me solve this issue. i spent lot of time to see whats wrong in the xml string. my bad, i couldn't find it. any help will be highly appreciated. 

  Thank you.

  It's a lot easier to create a service reference using the WSDL.

  Hi born2win,

  born2win

  {"There is an error in XML document (0, 0)."}

  born2win

  <multiRef id="id0" soapenc:root="0" soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xsi:type="ns2:TCBalanceInquiryResponse" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:ns2="urn:BeanService">

  I try to Deserialize your xml file, and get the error in the "name='TCBalanceInquiryResponse', namespace='urn:BeanService', at <multiRef xmlns=''>". 

  

  You can try to modify it according to your requirement.

  Best regards,

  Sam

  Ironically, you are writing a proxy.  A very poor implementation but a proxy nonetheless.  The rest of the world using the WSDL.  Can you explain why you have this requirement? Is this an educational project?

  A code generated proxy is not needed if you have the source code; data contracts and service interfaces.  From there you can write code to communicate with the service endpoint using the standard WCF library.  A  proxy is nothing more than a local copy of the interfaces and types from the remote host. Generally the remote host does not share the source code and exposes the contract in the WSDL.  This is a standard.   If you wrote the service code then simply use the ServiceHost to open a connection and invoke the service contracts. 

  Please see the WCF documentation which covers how to do this.

  You misunderstand.  ASMX and WCF are ASP.NET SOAP client and server libraries.  The XML shown above is a SOAP message regardless of the language used to create the service.  WSDL (Web Service Description Language) is a standard in SOAP.  Clients cannot interact with a SOAP service without knowing the service description.  The only reason a SOAP service would not expose the WSDL is because the client does not have permission to use the service.  

  Keep in mind it's impossible or at least it will take a lot of trial and error to gleam the service definition from a SOAP messages.  It's like learning to baking a cake without the recipe and using an existing cake as the template. 

  Contact the client and ask for the WSDL.  At the very least they should have the XSDs.
