Is it possible to send and receive XML to a WSDL function using Delphi ..?
We have used web services with Delphi in the past and they are simple with a few parameters and returned a single value to the client. The new work we are working on is to allow XML to enter and receive XML output.
Is there any component that can be used for this purpose?
When I tried to use as below, I get the error "Exception in input parameter SearchAgreements XmlElement - System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to object instance."
LDocument := NewXMLDocument;
<<framed an XML input>>
DocSearchOut := SearchArgsResponse.Create();
DoxSerchIn := SearchArgs.Create();
DoxSerchIn.SOAPTOObject(LDocument.DocumentElement,LDocument.DocumentElement,HTTPRIO1.Converter);
DoxService := GetIDoxService(True,'',HTTPRIO1);
DocSearchOut :=DoxService.SearchAgreements(DoxSerchIn)
I even tried converting SearchArgs as widestring and tried to pass as string. This works with minor changes when doing HTTPRIO. Final Edit
LDocument := NewXMLDocument;
<<framed an XML input>>
DocSearchOut := SearchArgsResponse.Create();
DoxSerchIn := SearchArgs.Create();
DoxSerchIn.SearchArgs := LDocument.DocumentElement.XML;
DoxService := GetIDoxService(True,'',HTTPRIO1);
DocSearchOut :=DoxService.SearchAgreements(DoxSerchIn)

Entering the Service. Unfortunately, the team added a few things, so there was no way to get the output on the SOAP UI.

Based on other submissions on the vaiours forums (in case), we fixed the issue by fixing in 2 places.
Delphi generated remote procedure changed. Previously it was a class of props, so we changed to WideString
SearchAgreements = class(TRemotable)
private
FsearchRequest: WideString ;
FsearchRequest_Specified: boolean;
procedure SetsearchRequest(Index: Integer; const AsearchRequest: WideString );
function searchRequest_Specified(Index: Integer): boolean;
public
destructor Destroy; override;
published
property searchRequest: WideString Index (IS_OPTN) read FsearchRequest write SetsearchRequest stored searchRequest_Specified;
end;
And also we have modified HTTPRIO Before doing with minor changes and we can successfully send XML to Service.
procedure HTTPRIO1SoapBeforeExecute(const MethodName: string;
SOAPRequest: TStream);
var
StrTemp,Fheader : TStringList;
StrBeg,StrEnd,StrParam,StrParam1 : TStringList;
StreamTemp : TStream;
StrLst : TStringList;
StrLstTmp: TStringList;
begin
StrBeg:=TStringList.Create();
StrEnd:=TStringList.Create();
SOAPRequest.Position := 0;
StrTemp.LoadFromStream(SOAPRequest);
StrBeg.Text := StringReplace(StrTemp.Text,'<','<',[RfReplaceAll]);
StrEnd.Text := StringReplace(StrBeg.Text,'>','>',[RfReplaceAll]);
SOAPRequest.Position:=0;
SOAPRequest.Size := 0; //Clear the Stream
StrEnd.SaveToStream(SOAPRequest); //Reinitialise the stream with right string.
SOAPRequest.Position :=0;
end;
We have done PHD on the call to Webservices, so anyone with a similar issue can contact me. Thank:)

There is a Web Service Toolkit .
It has a code generator that takes a wsdl and generates Pascal classes from it that interact with the web service.
This seems to be exactly what you need, but I don't know the specifics.
Then there are also Internet tools for FreePascal (not Delphi).
They contain an interpreter for XQuery, which is a general-purpose XML processing language, so you can use it with all possible XML / HTML-based APIs with much less code than using DOM methods. But it won't help you with any WSDL specifics, you need to write XML for each request yourself.
