I got a web service with a function that takes in an array of int's and returns a complex array. Here's the snippet of perl code:

=begin WSDL
    _IN smis @int session message id's to get data for
    _RETURN @SmiData smi data for each existing modality
=end WSDL    
=cut

sub getSmisData
{
    my $class = shift;
    
    my (@smis) = @_;
    
    my $smiData = [];
        
    my $dbh = open_db();
    
    if ($dbh)
    {
        # do something    
    }
    else
    {
        # do something else
    }
    
    return ($smiData);
}

Pod::WSDL generates a wsdl containing (partially):

<complexType name="ArrayOfInt">
                <complexContent>
                    <restriction base="soapenc:Array">
                        <attribute ref="soapenc:arrayType" wsdl:arrayT
+ype="soapenc:int[]" />
                    </restriction>
                </complexContent>
            </complexType>

            <complexType name="ArrayOfSmiData">
                <complexContent>
                    <restriction base="soapenc:Array">
                        <attribute ref="soapenc:arrayType" wsdl:arrayT
+ype="tns1:SmiData[]" />
                    </restriction>
                </complexContent>
            </complexType>

    <wsdl:message name="getSmisDataRequest">
        <wsdl:part name="smis" type="tns1:ArrayOfInt">
            <wsdl:documentation>session message id's to get data for</
+wsdl:documentation>
        </wsdl:part>
    </wsdl:message>

    <wsdl:message name="getSmisDataResponse">
        <wsdl:part name="getSmisDataReturn" type="tns1:ArrayOfSmiData"
+>
            <wsdl:documentation>smi data for each existing modality</w
+sdl:documentation>
        </wsdl:part>
    </wsdl:message>

I am using soapUI to test the wsdl. It automatically generates a request (partial):

   <soapenv:Body>
      <heal:getSmisData soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.
+org/soap/encoding/">
         <smis xsi:type="heal:ArrayOfInt" soapenc:arrayType="soapenc:i
+nt[2]" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<xsd:int>111</xsd:int>
<xsd:int>222</xsd:int>
</smis>    
      </heal:getSmisData>
   </soapenv:Body>
[download]

The response to this is as if the function did not find any data and looks like (partial):

   <soap:Body>
      <getSmisDataResponse xmlns="http://monitor.site.local/HealthWS">
         <soapenc:Array soapenc:arrayType="xsd:anyType[0]" xsi:type="s
+oapenc:Array"/>
      </getSmisDataResponse>
[download]

However, if i change the request to (partial):

   <soapenv:Body>
      <heal:getSmisData soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.
+org/soap/encoding/">
<xsd:int>111</xsd:int>
<xsd:int>222</xsd:int>
      </heal:getSmisData>
   </soapenv:Body>
[download]

(ie remove the array notion) i do get correct data for provided id's.

What is wrong with this? Is it the request or the wsdl issue? Any suggestions?

Thank you all in advance!
