RE: Initiating SOAP Request from RPG Using Sockets

Hi Ty,

Thanks.  I'm going to look at the code and put this in and retest.  I
got a response before from Paul that led me to an article talking about
JNI and RPG.  I'm going to look into this.  

Thanks again for your help, everyone.  I really appreciate the
responses.  You've given me a lot of options to explore.  

Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy

 From what I can see, I believe that there is a namespace missing. I 
believe that if you include

xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";

under the <SOAP-ENV:Envelope. That may help.

But... You may wish to consider using a JNI inteface to apache axis. 
Taken that Axis would have to be downloaded and installed. It would 
provide better portablity to other applications.

Let me know if I can help.
