SOAPRun (Function)

In french: SOAPExécute

Warning
From version 2024, this function is kept for backward compatibility.

Runs a procedure on a SOAP server.

Remarks:

The procedure parameters must be specified before using SOAPRun via the SOAP structure (see the Notes).
This function does not support non-Latin languages.
This function is meant for advanced users, to handle special cases. In most cases, we recommend importing the wsdl file of the SOAP web service. For more details, see Importing/Consuming web services.

Example

See additional examples

// Définition des paramètres de la procédure "Température" qui
// retourne la température d'une ville identifiée par son code postal
SOAP.Value[1] = 94010
SOAP.Name[1] = "CodePostal"
SOAP.Type[1] = SOAPStringType
// Exécution de la procédure "Température" sur un serveur non WINDEV
ResExécution = SOAPRun("http://www.Temp.com/Degré", "Température", "urn:Temp-Degré")

Syntax

Running a procedure on an ordinary SOAP server Hide the details

<Result> = SOAPRun(<URL of SOAP server> , <Procedure name> [, <Procedure Namespace> [, <Procedure action> [, <Encoding style>]]])

<Result>: Boolean

True if the communication was established with the SOAP server,
False otherwise. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo.

<URL of SOAP server>: Character string

URL of SOAP server to contact. This parameter is supplied in the documentation of SOAP server.
To submit a request with authentication, this parameter must correspond to:
http://utilisateur:motdepasse@URLServeur

You can also specify the port using the following syntax: http://utilisateur:motdepasse@URLServeur:port

<Procedure name>: Character string

Name of procedure that will be run on the specified SOAP server. This parameter is supplied in the documentation of SOAP server.

<Procedure Namespace>: Optional character string (mandatory for a WINDEV SOAP server)

Namespace of procedure to run. This parameter is supplied in the documentation of SOAP server.

<Procedure action>: Optional character string

Action of procedure (also called "SOAPAction"). This parameter is supplied in the documentation of SOAP server.

<Encoding style>: Optional character string

Encoding style of procedure (also called "EncodingStyle"). This parameter is supplied in the documentation of SOAP server.

Remarks

Parameters of procedure to run

To pass parameters to a procedure executed on a SOAP server, WINDEV uses the following structure:

Variable	Type	Details

SOAP.NameSpace	Optional character string	"NameSpace" of parameter.
SOAP.Name	Character string	Parameter name
SOAP.XMLParam	Optional character string	Full parameter description in XML format. The other parameters (Value, Name, Type, NameSpace and EncodingStyle) are ignored if this parameter is specified.
SOAP.EncodingStyle	Optional character string	Encoding style of parameter.
SOAP.Type	Constant	Type of parameter
SOAP.Value	Any type	Parameter value

This structure must be used for each parameter. For example:

SOAP.Value[1] = 94010
SOAP.Name[1] = "CodePostal"
SOAP.Type[1] = SOAPStringType

This structure is equivalent to:

SOAP.XMLParam[1] = <CodePostal xsi:type="xsd:string">94010</CodePostal>

Type of parameter

The type of parameter can be:

Constant	Type

SOAPBase64BinaryType	Binary
SOAPHexBinaryType	Hexadecimal binary
SOAPBooleanType	Boolean
SOAPStringType	Character string
SOAPNormalizedStringType	Character string without carriage return (CR) and without tabulation (TAB)
SOAPDecimalType	Any number without limit
SOAPIntType	Integer included between - 2 147 483 648 and + 2 147 483 647)
SOAPShortType	Short integer
SOAPUnsignedShortType	Unsigned short integer
SOAPIntegerType	Integer (no limit)
SOAPLongType	Long integer
SOAPUnsignedLongType	Long unsigned integer
SOAPNegativeIntegerType	Negative integer (except 0)
SOAPNonNegativeIntegerType	Non-negative integer
SOAPNonPositiveIntegerType	Non-positive integer
SOAPUnsignedIntType	Unsigned integer
SOAPPositiveIntegerType	Positive integer (except 0)
SOAPByteType	Byte
SOAPUnsignedByteType	Unsigned byte
SOAPFloatType	Real

Call to SOAPRun

After the call to SOAPRun:

The procedure parameters are deleted.
The structure of the header specified with SOAPAddHeader is deleted.
SOAPGetResult returns the result of the procedure run.
SOAPError returns the error message of the procedure run.

Handling errors

SOAPRun returns False if no communication was established with the SOAP server. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo with the errMessage constant.

Warning: The SOAPRun function may return Faux with a correct result if it contains the text ":fault"..

Special case: Error "405 Method not allowed "
This error means that the "/.soap" string is missing at the end of the URL of the SOAP server powered by WINDEV. This error can also occur if the Web server is not configured to use the WINDEV SOAP server.
