Calling Asmx From Android


I Am Trying To call Asmx (.net Web Services) From Android Application. But When I am giving data It is Giving Error :

AndroidRuntime(591): FATAL EXCEPTION: Thread-75
AndroidRuntime(591): java.lang.NullPointerException: println needs a message

in logcat showing data is going:

D\Req value1(540): NetPositionReport{arg0=64396; b=Om$@!#@M^#R; }

What Could Be The Problem?

MainActivity.java

package com.example.clientnetpositionreport;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
   EditText e1;
   Button b1;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        b1=(Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
        b1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
            public void onClick(View v){

                e1=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.evofclientcode);

               Intent i=new Intent(MainActivity.this,GetReport.class);
               i.putExtra("ClientCode",e1.getText().toString());
               startActivity(i);
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

}

             final Runnable createUI = new Runnable() {

              public void run(){
                  if(webResponse!=null) {

              textView1.setText(webResponse);
                  }
                  else {
                      webResponse ="No data provided presently";
                      textView1.setText(webResponse);
                  }
              }
              };

    }

note: The console output is till problem6. That means the value is Null (What I think.).So please keep that in mind.

What Could Be The Problem?

Note: the log.d method is getting string values,so that isn't the problem as was in some related cases.


Solution

  • After read your code I found out many minor mistakes..

    I can't write all mistake here so just compare your code with mine code and understood your mistakes.

    This is your Asmx Web-Service.

    Here you have to pass two input paramater

     <ClientCode>string</ClientCode>
     <key>string</key>
    

    but you are passing everything wrong..

    Your Wrong Code

    PropertyInfo fromProp =new PropertyInfo();
    fromProp.setName("arg0");
    fromProp.setValue(aa);
    fromProp.setType(String.class);
    request.addProperty(fromProp); 
    
    PropertyInfo fromProp2 =new PropertyInfo();
    fromProp2.setName("b");
    fromProp2.setValue("Om$@!#@M^#R");
    fromProp2.setType(String.class);
    request.addProperty(fromProp2); 
    

    You have to pass like this

    SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
                        // simple object access protocol
    request.addProperty("ClientCode", aa);
    request.addProperty("key", "Om$@!#@M^#R");
    

    Working Code of GetReport.Class

                        if (resultData != null)
                            webResponse = resultData.toString();
                        else
                            webResponse = "No Data found.";
                        System.out.println("webResponse : " + webResponse);
    
                    }
    
                    catch (Exception e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                        webResponse = "Connection/Internet problem";
                    }
                    handler.post(createUI);
                }
            };
            thread.start();
        }
    
        final Runnable createUI = new Runnable() {
    
            public void run() {
                if (webResponse != null) {
                    textView1.setText(webResponse);
                } else {
                    webResponse = "No data provided presently";
                    textView1.setText(webResponse);
                }
            }
        };
    
    }
    

    This is code is working but I am not getting response may be I am passing wrong value of ClientCode and key
