Axis returning array issue

Hi! I'm trying to generate a WSDL from a .java file with the plug-in for Eclipse "Code Generator Wizard - Eclipse Plug-in", available from http://ws.apache.org/axis2/tools/index.html
The method that I'm trying to generate has the following signature :
public String[][] translateConceptsToTerms(String[] conceptURIs, String lang)
So the return type is two dimensional array of Strings. The thing is that the tool generates the following lines in the WSDL :
<xs:element name="translateTermsToConceptsResponse">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" name="return" nillable="true" type="xs:string" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
which after that with the tool for generating Java code from WSDL generates as return type ONE dimensional array! (the second tool is from the same plug-in as the first one)
My question is if AXIS2 supports this return type, or there is some problem with the tools ... or something else? If somebody has any idea ...

Hi,
Thanks for the info. A co-worker of mine has got this working. When I try the same thing, I am getting the error.
On comparing the co-worker's and mine XML files, I found that the working example contains following attribute:
ElemType
Whereas my XML file doesn't contain this entry. What do I have to do to get this entry in the XML file - I checked all options in the VO wizard and was unable to find anything.
Please suggest -- thanks in advance!!

Invoking stored procedure that returns array(oracle object type) as output

Hi,
We have stored procedures which returns arrays(oracle type) as an output, can anyone shed some light on how to map those arrays using JPA annotations? I tried using jdbcTypeName but i was getting wrong type or argument error, your help is very much appreciated. Below is the code snippet.

A few things.
You are not using a JDBC Array type in your procedure, you are using a PLSQL TABLE type. An Array type would be a VARRAY in Oracle. EclipseLink supports both VARRAY and TABLE types, but TABLE types are more complex as Oracle JDBC does not support them, they must be wrapped in a corresponding VARRAY type. I assume your OBJ_TEAM_ROLES is also not an OBJECT TYPE but a PLSQL RECORD type, this has the same issue.
Your procedure does not return a result set, so "returnsResultSet=true" should be "returnsResultSet=false".
In general I would recommend you change your stored procedure to just return a select from a table using an OUT CURSOR, that is the easiest way to return data from an Oracle stored procedure.
If you must use the PLSQL types, then you will need to create wrapper VARRAY and OBJECT TYPEs. In EclipseLink you must use a PLSQLStoredProcedureCall to access these using the code API, there is not annotation support. Or you could create your own wrapper stored procedure that converts the PLSQL types to OBJECT TYPEs, and call the wrapper stored procedure.
To map to Oracle VARRAY and OBJECT TYPEs the JDBC Array and Struct types are used, these are supported using EclipseLink ObjectRelationalDataTypeDescriptor and mappings. These must be defined through the code API, as there is currently no annotation support.
I could not find any good examples or doc on this, your best source of example is the EclipseLink test cases in SVN,

URGENT HELP::: returning array of non built in datatypes

Folks,
I am trying to implement webservices in weblogic7.0 sp2. We have written a simple
class(say ClassA) which uses another bean as a user defined data type(ClassB implements
serializable). I am able to create a webservice if one of the method in ClassA
returns the object of classB.I am getting an error while creating the web-services.xml
file using ant tool if same method in ClassA returns array of ClassB.It says
corresponding type is not found in the types.xml. I created types.xml using ant
tool too.
Does weblogic7.0 SP2 support returning array of objects in webservices?
Any suggestions and immediate response is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kamal.

Bruce,
You understand the question correctly..Thanks for the help... it works now.
Thanks,

Hi Kamal,
If I understand your question correctly, yes, you should be able to do
this. You will need to create your own implementation of the
javax.xml.rpc.holders.Holder interface. See:

If that's not what you are asking, could you post a simple test case?

Stored Procedure: Function returns Array

I was just wondering if following scenario is possible in a stored procedure.
I have a package, which includes 4 different functions and 1 procedure. Procdure uses ref cursor to return values in my reporting tool. What I am trying to do is to write a function which takes input and return array of varchar. Something like..
Package ABC
Function student_classes (student_no in Varchar2) return [array]
begin
select class_nbr into [array]
from student_table
where student_nbr = student_no;
return [array];
end student_classes;
procedure students_info (rpt_cursor IN OUT rpt_type)
begin
OPEN rpt_cursor FOR
select
student_name,
student_nbr,
student_address,
student_classes (student_nbr) --returns array
from student_table;
end student_info; --end of procedure
end abc; --end of pacakge.
I used [array], as I am ont sure how to define (syntax) it in spec part of package or in body. I will really appreciate if someone could help me with this function.
Thank you

Thanks for the reply Tonguc Y.
I declared an array in my package declaration
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE rpt_TESTING_pkg
AS TYPE rpt_type IS REF CURSOR;
     TYPE DIAGARRAY IS VARRAY(20) OF VARCHAR2(6);
     FUNCTION DIA_CODES (MNO IN VARCHAR2) RETURN DIAGARRAY;
     PROCEDURE member (rpt_cursor IN OUT rpt_type);
END rpt_TESTING_pkg;
but then when I try to use it in my function it gives me error that I should declare DIAGARRAY.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY rpt_TESTING_pkg
as
FUNCTION DIA_CODES (MNO IN VARCHAR2)
               RETURN DIGARRAY AS diags DIGARRAY;
begin
<sql block>
end dia_codes;
end rpt_TESTING_pkg;

SOAP Webservice returns Array - how to setup Xcelsius?

Hello,
after a lot of tests I have recognized that Xcelsius is not able to handle Webservices which return arrays with an undefined size. So I edited the schema file in the way that the size is defined.
Here is an extract of the schema file:
<xsd:sequence>
            <xsd:element name="row0" type="tns:Row" maxOccurs="10" minOccurs="10" ></xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
With that configuration Xcelsius is able to import the wsdl. But the preview window is showing only one Row Folder, I have excpected "10". My question is, is my config the right way to handle arrays with Xcelsius and when it is, how I have to set up the range in the Excel Map to make the data avaiable???
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Conrad

Hi All,
I am new to JNI programming. so trying with simple example. I am having one problem. I have one array of String in my Java program. I want to reverse all the elements in this array and want back this new array in the same form i.e. array of string. So how can I do this ??
Please guide me.....
The function of defination of array in my java code is
public native String[] getReverseStringArray(String[] arrString);
where as my array is like:
String[] arrStr = {"one", "two", "three", "four", "��","�c��","�J�^�J�i"};
and I am calling function in C file like:
arrStr = employee.getReverseStringArray(arrStr);
and the function defination in my c file is
JNIEXPORT jobjectArray JNICALL
Java_Emp_getReverseStringArray (JNIEnv *env, jobject obj, jobjectArray arr)
// some code will come here......
So can anybody tell me how to do this ??

Hi,
this is quite simple. Here an example function that works like this:
JNIEXPORT jobjectArray JNICALL Java_cadagent_ugopen_UgAssembly_jni_1getStructure
(JNIEnv *env, jclass cls, jstring part)
jobjectArray retvals = NULL;
jstring j_val = NULL;
int child_count = 5;
/* initialize return array */
j_val = (*env)->NewStringUTF(env, "");
retvals = (*env)->NewObjectArray(env, child_count, (*env)->FindClass(env, "java/lang/String"), j_val);
for (i=0;i<child_count;i++)
j_val = (*env)->NewStringUTF(env, "some text");
(*env)->SetObjectArrayElement(env, retvals,i, j_val);
return retvals;
Hope this answers you question.

How to return array of unsigned integer pointer from call library function node & store the data in array in labview

Did you take a look at the example that ships with LabVIEW that shows how to do all sorts of data passing to DLLs. I believe your situation is one of the examples listed. You can find the example VI in the "<LabVIEW install directory>\examples\dll\data passing" directory.

Returning material issue

Hi,
I have configured standar process for material issues with services rule also, but I need to know the standar process
in order to returning material (issue by mistake for example).
There is an indicator in report NMCOL where it suppose used to bring canceled consumptions, but where do we
cancel consumptions? (standar only please).
Best regards.

Hello Milasanz,
To be able to reverse/cancel a material consumption in IS-H, an appropriate good issue must be reversed/canceled. To cancel a good issue you must use, for example, the following MM t-code: MBST - Cancel/Reverse. It is the logic, BUT actually once you cancel a good issue, a system still issues an error message when you try to cancel a material consumption (it is wrong behavior of SAP). We've written to SAP about the mistake.
To cancel a material consumption, you must use t-code NMMC1.
Regards,
Alexander.

Return array of chars

What you want is to return an array of strings.
Conceptually it is the same as if you were doing it in java.
- Get a size
- Create the array with that size
- Iterate through the array and for each index...
....-Create a string with data
....-Assign to the array.
Naturally it is going to take a lot more code to do this in C than in java.

A few issues,
1 - JDBC does not support the PLSQL TABLE type, you must use a VARRAY type, or wrap the TABLE function call in a function that takes a VARRAY.
TopLink also has support for PLSQL types in its PLSQLStoredProcedureCall class, but no support is currently offered for StoredFunctions.
You can't pass the VARRAY type for the TABLE argument.
2 - Your function returns a VARRAY, so you need to define this type in the StoredFunctionCall result.
We don't currently expose the API to set a Array type for the result, so you would need to access the call's first parameter directly, or use a StoredProcedureCall (and convert your function to a procedure).
You may also wish to investigate returning a cursor from a stored procedure instead of the varray.
You could also access the JDBC connection directly and perform the call using JDBC code.
Feel free to log these issues in EclipseLink.

I can't comment on the problem returning PL/SQL arrays, but I will suggest that a more appropriate method of achieving your goal is to call a procedure which returns a REF CURSOR.

Ejb QL 3.0 group by / return type issues

Hello all. I have a question regarding ejb query language 3.0. I have a query that works and looks like the following:
select e.objectId, count(distinct s1.objectId), count(distinct s2.objectId)
from Engagement e JOIN e.surveys s1 JOIN e.surveys s2
where s2.scope is not null
and s2.schedule is not null
and s2.quality is not null
and s2.expertise is not null
and s2.overallExperience is not null
group by e.objectId
While this query "works" I am unhappy with the result. What is returned by this query is an Object array of size 3. The first element is the objectId, the second the count of "sent surveys" and the third the count of "completed surveys". While this is correct for the query i want to execute a query selecting out an actual engagement object, not just the objectId. To accomplish this now, I would have to manually select out every column in engagement growing my Object array to n + 2 where n is the number of columns in Engagement. I find this unreasonable and not object oriented and would like to get an object array back that contains an Engagement object as the first element, and then the counts. However I am unaware of how to write this in ejb QL. If anyone has more experience than me please let me know if this is possible. The following code is incorrect but represents what I want to do:
select e, count(distinct s1.objectId), count(distinct s2.objectId)
from Engagement e JOIN e.surveys s1 JOIN e.surveys s2
where s2.scope is not null
and s2.schedule is not null
and s2.quality is not null
and s2.expertise is not null
and s2.overallExperience is not null
group by e /* alternatively 'group by e.objectId' or something of the like */
For anyone else having trouble with ejb QL the best resource I have found is the BNF grammar on suns site. If you are trying to do anything complex, chances are there isn't an example out for you :(
http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/tutorial/doc/bnbuf.html#bnbui

I realized what I wanted to the QL to do wasn't really fair. I was thinking if you wanted to do something like the above it could automatically group by first whatever the pk is on the entity and then who cares what order is next, just pick something so the SQL group by is satisfied. After more thought I realized this wasn't really a fair assumption the query engine could make and went about coding the specific items I wanted back in the select and made a corresponding entity object that acutely defined my result and used a constructor expression to create a list of these new objects. Hopefully someone else finds this useful and I appreciate the above response as well. Marking as answered.
