Dear All,

I probably know too little about SOAP in general to be doing this sort of thing, but perhaps the kind-hearted will bear with me.

I have generated a module from a WSDL which contains this:

my %methods = (
...
findGroups => {
    endpoint => 'https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx/grouper-ws/services/Grou
+perService.GrouperServiceHttpSoap12Endpoint/',
    soapaction => 'urn:findGroups',
    namespace => 'http://soap.ws.grouper.middleware.internet2.edu/xsd'
+,
    parameters => [
      SOAP::Data->new(name => 'clientVersion', type => 'xs:string', at
+tr => {}),
      SOAP::Data->new(name => 'wsQueryFilter', type => 'ns:WsQueryFilt
+er', attr => {}),
      SOAP::Data->new(name => 'actAsSubjectLookup', type => 'ns:WsSubj
+ectLookup', attr => {}),
      SOAP::Data->new(name => 'includeGroupDetail', type => 'xs:string
+', attr => {}),
      SOAP::Data->new(name => 'params', type => 'ns:WsParam', attr => 
+{}),
    ], # end parameters
  }, # end findGroups
); # end my %methods
[download]

I call the method like this:

  my $xml = "<ns:wsQueryFilter><ns:groupName>$params{groupname}</ns:gr
+oupName><ns:queryFilterType>$params{queryfiltertype}</ns:queryFilterT
+ype></ns:wsQueryFilter>";
  my $elem = SOAP::Data->type('xml' => $xml);

  my $result= $grouper->findGroups($params{clientversion},
                                   $elem,
                                   '',
                                   'T'
                                  );

However, the SOAP body generated looks like this:

  <soap:Body>
    <ns:findGroups>
      <clientVersion xsi:type="xs:string">v1_4_001</clientVersion>
      <wsQueryFilter xsi:nil="true" xsi:type="ns:WsQueryFilter" />
      <actAsSubjectLookup xsi:nil="true" xsi:type="ns:WsSubjectLookup"
+ />
      <includeGroupDetail xsi:type="xs:string">T</includeGroupDetail>
    </ns:findGroups>
  </soap:Body>

The wsQueryFilter-tag is always empty - I also get the same result if I replace $elem with '' (or pretty much anything else).

Other methods which take only string aguments work fine. Can anyone see how I should pass the non-string arguments?

Thanks,

loris
