How to pass a String array to a webservice using soap libraries?

Question

I need to pass a a string array to a predefined webserivce designed to accept an array of string values. However when I create a soap envelope and set array.class or string.class properties to the request it throws a serialization error.

Any suggestions for the above? What should be the suggested data type or method to work around the same.

 SoapObject request = new SoapObject(WSDL_TARGET_NAMESPACE,OPERATION_NAME);

    PropertyInfo p1 = new PropertyInfo();
    p1.setName("items");
    p1.setValue(results);
    p1.setType(String.class); // else Array.class.
    request.addProperty(p1);

    SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
    envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
    envelope.dotNet = true;

        HttpTransportSE httpTransport = new HttpTransportSE(SOAP_ADDRESS);
        httpTransport.debug = true;
        httpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);
                       // throws an error in the above.

        result = httpTransport.responseDump;

@SagarMaiyad, what sort of a question is that? I want to because I have to. — Garima Tiwari

It is a known issue with the KSOAP2 for Android library, which at the moment simply doesn't support arrays. The issue description is here.

A third-party patch, solution and an example can be found here.

Look on these link, You can find your answer on that.

Just pass parameter name and value like this in loop :

SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
HttpTransportSE ht = new HttpTransportSE(URL);
for (int i=0; i<itemId.length; i++){
    request.addProperty("itemID",itemId[i]);
}
ht.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);

Just pass parametername and item value in loop using request.addProperty
