Hi,
The easiest way is to use a tool like SoapUI which reads a WSDL file and generates the complete SOAP request.
Looking at the raw data it is then just filling in the parameters and you're done.
Kind regards,
Paul

Hi Scott.
This is a sample of the SOAP message that I would send:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
-<soapenv:Envelope
xmlns:soap="
http://servicegate.infolock.com/MSC/ServiceSys/SOAPHandler";
xmlns:soapenv="

<![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <msvauth:Servicegate-Authorization

Apologies in advance if this is obvious. I am a relative novice when it comes to this SOAP stuff. I don't believe I would have to worry about escaping my XML data in the "RequestDocument" element of the SOAP. The XML is within CDATA. Correct?

hi Robert,
Yes, I think you're right, Robert. For example, if your XML currently looks like this:
<myXML>Data</myXML>
then in a wrapped SOAP message it'd look something like this:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="
http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope";
xmlns:tns="urn:WellingtonRoyceXmlWrapper">
<soap:Body>
<tns:YourRequest>
<tns:Data><myXML>Data</myXML></tns:Data>
</tns:YourRequest>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Granted, I made up some of the names ("YourRequest", "Data", the TNS
namespace) but that's the general idea. The original XML is escaped into character entities and placed in a parameter of a SOAP message.
It shouldn't be hard to build this message in an RPG program, and send it via HTTPAPI. The hardest part will be escaping the existing XML data
-- but it shouldn't be too bad. If you can't figure it out, let me know.
When the output message is sent back, you can use HTTPAPI's XML parser to extract the original XML data -- it'll automatically "unescape" it for you.

Thanks Scott.
My XML will stay the same. It is "wrapped" in a SOAP message for the
web service. If I understand everything correctly, I should still be
able to use my same HTTP process that I am using now. The only
difference is that I will need to "wrap" the XML in a SOAP message,
before sending it. When the XML is returned, I will need to remove
the SOAP message "wrapper", before I can parse the XML. Is my
assumption correct?
