Converting C# Web Service to Java

Question

Greetings All.. I am now coding in Java (from c#) and have a question about web services..
I am trying to figure out the below C# syntax in Java... Essentially, in all of my C# web services I would code classes for each method and would call them:
Example web services file:
[WebMethod(Description = "some description.")]
public SellSomething sellSomething(Int32 transactionId, Int32 customerId, string assetId, int assetPrice)
return new SellSomething(Int32 transactionId, Int32 customerId, string assetId, int assetPrice);
The C# class file, SellSomething.cs, would look like this:
public class SellSomething
private Int32 _transactionID = 0;
private Int32 _customerId = 0;
private string _assetID = String.Empty;
private int _assetPrice = 0;
private int _resultCode = 0;
public SellSomething()
public SellSomething(Int32 transactionId, Int32 customerId, string assetId, int assetPrice)
_transactionID = transactionID;
_customerId = customerId;
_assetID = assetID;
_assetPrice = assetPrice;
sellSomething();
public int resultCode
get
return _resultCode;
set
_resultCode = value;
public void sellSomething()
// logic here
_resultCode = SOME VALUE
I code my web services in this way to better organize and simplify the code. any assistance is appreciated.
thank you in advance.

That wont work. Just read a chunk of data, and check if it contains a null character (0x0). That would be the end of your C string. Now convert all the data before that to a java String with this constructor:
String(byte[] bytes, int off, int len)It will by default assume UTF8 encoding if I'm correct.
If you have larger chunks of text, you can use a ByteArrayOutputStream to buffer the complete string, and just read chunks of data into them until you've read the to the null character. and then do the same as above with the data in the ByteArrayOutputStream (toByteArray() ).
