Android Code for calling .NET web service

You need to declare 4 variable to call web service method

• OPERATION_NAME - name of method to call
• NAMESPACE - namespace
• SOAP_ACTION - particular methdo of specified namespace
• URL - URL of your web serivce

Declare above variable as below :

• String OPERATION_NAME="HelloWorld";
• String NAMESPACE="www.tempuri.org/";
• String SOAP_ACTION=NAMESPACE+OPERATION_NAME;
• String URL="http://your-ip-address/your-application-nm(in .net)/Service.asmx"; ***

Note ***:  in above statement instead your-ip-address you have to write your own local pc ip address. you can find it from command prompt to invoke the ipconfig command. and specify your-application-nm which you specify at the time of making .NET web service.

Code to call HellowWorld method. (Default Method)

try{

   

      SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE,OPERATION_NAME);

      //below statement passes argument to the web method specify in web service.

      request.addProperty("name", "How r u?");   **

      SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);

      envelope.dotNet=true;

      envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);

      HttpTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransportSE(URL);

      androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);

      Object result = (Object)envelope.getResponse();

      status=result.toString();

      Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(),status,Toast.LENGTH-LONG).show();

}

catch(Exception e)

{

      Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), e.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

}

NOTE ** : in this statement as first argument is as same as the name of the method argument you specified in .net and second argument the value of the argument.

Output :  HelloWorld How r u?

Explanation : HelloWorld from the method itself and second word which we pass from the ** statement.
