getting the response message from web service call

[plork]

hi all i'm calling a web service method and can get it's results just
fine however i want to grab the repsonse message from the call

is anyone able to tell me how i do this?

results = service.getMethod(a, b, c, d)

then iterating through

for (int i = 0; i < results .Length; i++)
{
string name = results .name;
string display = results .name;
}

i want the raw xml response. I know i can use TCPTrace to get this
BUT i need it in code

In java i can do this, how do i do this in c#?

Service service = new Service();
Call call = (Call) service.createCall();
........
Message message = call.getResponseMessage();

thanks for any help

You can call a web service using SOAP, create a HttpWebRequest to GET
http://server/service.asmx?getMethod and read the response.

Hi there

I can already call the webservice method and get the correct results
but i need to get the full raw soap response

i'm writing a windows application so i can't use HttpWebRequest

thanks for your help

so i can't use HttpWebRequest

You may be confusing System.Net.HttpWebRequest and
System.Web.HttpRequest; the latter is the inbound request for ASP.NET,
but the former is a generic outbound request over http - i.e. exactly
what you want.

You could also look at WebClient - but in both cases you'd need to
form your own outbound request, which may not be what you had in mind.

Another option might be to look into writing a SOAP extension to watch
the stream. If this was WCF I could advise on how to do this, but I
have never tried it with the older SOAP code.

System.Net.HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest;
httpWebRequest.GetResponse();

Marc is right, but listen, I found that you can use
proxy.ResponseSoapContext

Maybe this is exactly what you are looking for

Thanks but that's not what i want


I've added a web reference to my windows application project
then i've got using webservice.WebService; in the declarations bit at
the top

i can then call the webservice

webservice service = new webservice();

ComplexType [] results = null;

results = service.webServiceMethod(apramA, paramB);

for (int i = 0; i < results .Length; i++)
{
messagebox.show( results .name);
}

I can call the webservice and get the results - all that is ok

I've done a TCPTrace on the raw soap and the soap is returns like this

<ref id="id0" soapenc:root="0" soapenv:encodingStyle="http://
schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xsi:type="ns3:ComplexType"
xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlns:ns3="http://......">
<id href="#id1"/>
<display xsi:type="soapenc:string">display value</display>
<name xsi:type="soapenc:string">name value</name>
</ref>

<ref id="id1" soapenc:root="0" soapenv:encodingStyle="http://
schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xsi:type="soapenc:long"
xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">123</ref>


so i need to 'grap' the second <ref> id value of '123''

This is where i'm stuck, so thought if i grab the raw xml soap
repsonse usng c# i can parse the xml to get the id value of '123' but
i'm finding it extremly difficult just to get the raw xml using c#
code

using .net2 andcs 2005

thanks for any help
