Re: Setting HTTP Header for While sending SOAP Requests

The SOAP part is ok. The server is apparently dying with a
NullPointerException after receiving the message and while
Processing the request. You wouldn't be getting that response if=20
This was a SOAP problem.


<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
<faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server.Exception:</faultcode>
<faultstring>java.lang.NullPointerException</faultstring>
<faultactor>/soap/servlet/messagerouter</faultactor>
</SOAP-ENV:Fault>

Subject: [SOAP] Setting HTTP Header for While sending SOAP Requests

Hi,

I prepared a SOAP Client application.,it will take short message details
and prepares SOAP Envelope and send it to SOAP Server. I used C SOAP
library for this.
Here the problem is.,i am getting error messages from the server. If i
observe the server logs..the main xml header ( <?xml version=3D'1.0'
encoding=3D'UTF-8'?>) doesn't appear in the request.,eventhough i put it
in my program. And content type doesn't appear. Actually i didn't set
http header. I want to know how to set this. Which function i have to
use.
My logic of the application is take xml template and fill the values,
parse ti and invoke soap_client_invoke function to send the request.
( Shortly   i) doc =3D xmlParseMemory(xml_in_memory,length+1);
              ii)  env =3D soap_env_new_from_doc(doc);
                iii)  res =3D soap_client_invoke(env, url, "");

Finally my problems are:
I) How come xml header is missing
2) How to set HTTP Header...
