Soap Envelope not what expected.

[tshad]

I am trying to create a proxy and soap from a sample file and it won't
create multiple dimensional arrays for some reason.

I have the following Class that I compile and put into my Bin directory:
*************************************
Namespace myComponents

Public Class NewsItem
Public Headline As String
Public Posted As Date
Public URL As String
Public Line As String ()()
End Class

End Namespace
******************************************

I then have an .asmx file that uses this class:

******************************************************
<%@ WebService Class="BetterNewsService" %>

Imports System
Imports System.Web.Services
Imports myComponents

<WebService( Namespace:="http://yourdomain.com/webservices" )> _
Public Class BetterNewsService : Inherits WebService

<WebMethod( CacheDuration:=30 )> Public Function GetNews() As NewsItem()
Dim arrNews( 2 ) As NewsItem

arrNews( 0 ) = New NewsItem
arrNews( 0 ).Headline = "Visit superexpert.com for ASP.NET News!"
arrNews( 0 ).Posted = #12/12/2002#
arrNews( 0 ).URL = "http://www.superexpert.com"

arrNews( 1 ) = New NewsItem
arrNews( 1 ).Headline = "Visit ASPWorkshops for ASP.NET Training!"
arrNews( 1 ).Posted = #2/1/2002#
arrNews( 1 ).URL = "http://www.AspWorkshops.com"

arrNews( 2 ) = New NewsItem
arrNews( 2 ).Headline = "Visit superexpertControls.com for ASP.NET
Controls!"
arrNews( 2 ).Posted = #2/14/2002#
arrNews( 2 ).URL = "http://www.superexpertControls.com"

Return arrNews
End Function

End Class
******************************************************
This compiles fine.

The soap envelop is:
*******************************************************
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<GetNewsResponse xmlns="http://yourdomain.com/webservices">
<GetNewsResult>
<NewsItem>
<Headline>string</Headline>
<Posted>dateTime</Posted>
<URL>string</URL>
</NewsItem>
<NewsItem>
<Headline>string</Headline>
<Posted>dateTime</Posted>
<URL>string</URL>
</NewsItem>
</GetNewsResult>
</GetNewsResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
*********************************************************

The HTTP Post is:
***********************************************************
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ArrayOfNewsItem xmlns="http://yourdomain.com/webservices">
<NewsItem>
<Headline>string</Headline>
<Posted>dateTime</Posted>
<URL>string</URL>
</NewsItem>
<NewsItem>
<Headline>string</Headline>
<Posted>dateTime</Posted>
<URL>string</URL>
</NewsItem>
</ArrayOfNewsItem>
************************************************************

Now if I added into the asmx file something like:

arrNews( 0 ).Line(1)(1) = "a test"

I get an error saying that there is no Line in the Class?????

What happened to it?

Thanks,

Tom
