First of all make sure that your web service is in the proper url and get that url with you.
http://ksoap2-android.googlecode.com/svn/m2-repo/com/google/code/ksoap2-android/ksoap2-android-assembly/2.6.0/ksoap2-android-assembly-2.6.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar
Some users seem to experience download problems with IE. Just try a decent browser or download with a command line tool like wget
wget http://ksoap2-android.googlecode.com/svn/m2-repo/com/google/code/ksoap2-android/ksoap2-android-assembly/2.6.0/ksoap2-android-assembly-2.6.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar
Now make the java file and insert the following in that code :
import org.ksoap2.SoapEnvelope;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.PropertyInfo;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapObject;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapPrimitive;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapSerializationEnvelope;
import org.ksoap2.transport.HttpTransportSE;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class WebserActivity extends Activity {
private final String NAMESPACE = "http://www.webserviceX.NET/";
private final String URL = "http://www.webservicex.net/ConvertWeight.asmx";
private final String SOAP_ACTION = "http://www.webserviceX.NET/ConvertWeight";
private final String METHOD_NAME = "ConvertWeight";
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
String weight = "3700";
String fromUnit = "Grams";
String toUnit = "Kilograms";
PropertyInfo weightProp =new PropertyInfo();
weightProp.setName("Weight");
weightProp.setValue(weight);
weightProp.setType(double.class);
request.addProperty(weightProp);
PropertyInfo fromProp =new PropertyInfo();
fromProp.setName("FromUnit");
fromProp.setValue(fromUnit);
fromProp.setType(String.class);
request.addProperty(fromProp);
PropertyInfo toProp =new PropertyInfo();
toProp.setName("ToUnit");
toProp.setValue(toUnit);
toProp.setType(String.class);
request.addProperty(toProp);
SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
HttpTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransportSE(URL);
try {
androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);
SoapPrimitive response = (SoapPrimitive)envelope.getResponse();
Log.i("myApp", response.toString());
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(weight+" "+fromUnit+" equal "+response.toString()+ " "+toUnit);
setContentView(tv);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Now make an xml file named main.xml and insert the following code into it :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello" />
</LinearLayout>
And finally manifest file should be looks like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.sencide"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0">
<application android:label="@string/app_name">
<activity android:name=".WebserActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
</manifest>
