consuming external WSDL problem

[shangab]

i have webservice for external database,this web service has method "SendSMS" that take "SMSMessage" object and add record to this DB
the generated SL for this WSDL appear like this:
functionsendSMS( )
{
this.$$nsPrefix ="tns";
this.$$attributes =newArray();
this.$$xmlNames =newArray();
this.$$objNames =newArray();
this.getName = getName;
this.getXmlName = getXmlName;
this.setContent = setContent;
this.addContent = addContent;
this.getContent = getContent;
this.isFault = isFault;
this.$$elementChildren =newArray();
this.$$name ="sendSMS";
this.$$xmlNames["sendSMS"]="tns:sendSMS";
this.xmlns =newString("http://www.etisalat.com.eg/integration");
this.$$attributes.push( "xmlns" );
this.message =newsmsMessage();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "message" );

}
functionsendSMSResponse( )
{
this.$$nsPrefix ="tns";
this.$$attributes =newArray();
this.$$xmlNames =newArray();
this.$$objNames =newArray();
this.getName = getName;
this.getXmlName = getXmlName;
this.setContent = setContent;
this.addContent = addContent;
this.getContent = getContent;
this.isFault = isFault;
this.$$elementChildren =newArray();
this.$$name ="sendSMSResponse";
this.$$xmlNames["sendSMSResponse"]="tns:sendSMSResponse";
}
functionsmsMessage( )
{
this.$$nsPrefix ="tns";
this.$$attributes =newArray();
this.$$xmlNames =newArray();
this.$$objNames =newArray();
this.getName = getName;
this.getXmlName = getXmlName;
this.setContent = setContent;
this.addContent = addContent;
this.getContent = getContent;
this.isFault = isFault;
this.$$elementChildren =newArray();
this.$$name ="smsMessage";
this.$$xmlNames["smsMessage"]="tns:smsMessage";
this.application =newxs_string();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "application" );
this.contents =newxs_string();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "contents" );
this.externalApplicationIndicator =newxs_string();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "externalApplicationIndicator" );
this.lang =newxs_int();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "lang" );
this.password =newxs_string();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "password" );
this.priority =newxs_int();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "priority" );
this.reciever =newxs_string();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "reciever" );
this.scheduleDate =newxs_dateTime();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "scheduleDate" );
this.sender =newxs_string();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "sender" );
this.status =newxs_unsignedShort();
this.$$elementChildren.push( "status" );
}

then i create my client to consume this WS
the client code like this:

functionsendSMS(application,contents,externalApplicationIndicator,lang,password,priority,reciever,sender)
{
//defining web-service client instance
var webService =newlib.UnifiedSMSGateWayWSServiceProxy.UnifiedSMSGate WayWSService( );
　
var request ;
//creating request object for the web-service instance defined
request =newlib.UnifiedSMSGateWayWSServiceProxy.sendSMS();
//request=myrequest;
newMessage =newlib.UnifiedSMSGateWayWSServiceProxy.smsMessage();

newMessage.application.setValue(application);;
newMessage.contents.setValue(contents);
newMessage.externalApplicationIndicator.setValue(externalApplicationIndicator);
newMessage.lang.setValue(lang);
newMessage.password.setValue(password);
newMessage.priority.setValue(priority);
newMessage.reciever.setValue(reciever);
// newMessage.scheduleDate.setValue(new Date());
newMessage.sender.setValue(sender);
newMessage.status.setValue("P");
request.message=newMessage;
try
{
//web-service invocation
var response =webService.invoke(request);
//declaring a variable containing plain soap response
var soapResponse = webService.resultXML;


print(soapResponse);
}
catch( e )
{
//Catching any exception occured. Block is skipped to avoid displaying unwanted warnings
print("External failure. Description: \n"+e.toString());
return RC_ERROR;
}


}

but my client code may be incorrect becouse print(soapResponse) give me this result

The passed argument to method sendSMS is null

many thanks;

One problem is that you're using the same function name for your code as is in the web service. That's bad form. You don't know which sendSMS function is giving the error there. Given that it's saying "passed argument", it sounds like however you called your function isn't working right (as the web service sendSMS function doesn't take in any passed arguments).

First thing to do is to change your function name to avoid the conflict. Then you'll know where the error occurred.

many thanks for the concerns
i changed the method name in my code to be sendNewSMS .
also i ignored the passed arguments and used static values as follow
newMessage.application.setValue("Portal");
newMessage.contents.setValue("test");
newMessage.externalApplicationIndicator.setValue("IM0001102979");..etc

request.message=newMessage;


also when reading the fields value it works fine as follow
print(newMessage.externalApplicationIndicator.getV alue(); or print(request.message.externalApplicationIndicator .getValue();it prints "IM0001102979"

which mean that the problem may occure when assigning the object "newMessage" to sendSMS method--- in this line (request.message=newMessage);
