Critical problem with JbossESB

[desbonns62]

Hi,
I tried to create a Jboss client for Sugar's web services. I tried many solutions but each time, I got a problem related to the soap-enc type of the web service definition.
Here for example, when I generate classes with the jboss tool 'wsconsume':

D:\jbossesb-server-4.5.GA\bin>wsconsume -k http://127.0.0.1/SugarCRM/soap.php?wsdl
JBossWS-Native stack deployed
parsing WSDL...


[WARNING] src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'SOAP-ENC:Array' to a(n) 'type definition' component.

(... many times this error ...)

Did someone succeeded to use web service with JBoss?
Is "soap-enc" a standard?
Does the wsdl will be updated in the futures versions of SugarCRM?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
SugarCRM's soap web service is RPC/Encoded. Java in general doesn't like RPC/Encoded and works Doc/Literal ...
With most Java clients you'll run into problems like this.
The only stack that i know works with SugarCRM(RPC/Encoded) is Axis.
Off hand i don't remember which stack JBoss ESB uses and if that stack supports RPC/Encoded ...
You gotta find out if it does, if it can be set to use RPC/Encoded or you can use Axis in the ESB.

I did actually use JBoss ESB with sugar, we ended up creating a Rest like web service for Sugar and hook the ESB into that.

Cheers,
