Re: Exposing in IBM i a Web Service that receive an Item LIST

Is there a reason you feel the need to use SOAP or is it a requirement ?

A good CGI RPG program can return XML, JSON, whatever format you want and
should be pretty simple to write.

SOAP is not the preferred method these days from my understanding.

subject: [WEB400] Exposing in IBM i a Web Service that receive an Item
list

hi to everybody,
I should exopse in IBM i' HTTP a SOAP Web service, that receives a list of
Item and to write relative program that it elaborates the Web Service
requests; in past I have had the opportunity of doing things similar with
Web Service type REST, but it is the first time that I try to solve the
problem list with SOAP WS; my doubts are:
- How I can specify the input parameters in Web service configuration
through the IWS Wizard?
- same thing for the RPG program , how can read the input (List item)
parameters ?

do I have to specify an array obligatorily?
can some one give me some suggestions on as to approach thi problem ?

thanks

p.s. i'm running V6R1

this the example of the Xml that I should receive


<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="
<http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/>
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:ns1="
<http://www.mysite.it/WS01> http://www.mysite.it/WS01";> <SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:ReqItem> <ns1:idReq>1234</ns1:idReq> <ns1:articoli> <ns1:articolo>
<ns1:numeroRiga>1</ns1:numeroRiga> <ns1:itm>019806503</ns1:itm>
