Dear list,

Sorry about that, my e-mail has been sent too soon by mistake (also from an incorrect exp. address). I was planning to add further details.

So I'm running Debian Lenny. sessionInfo() gives:
R version 2.7.1 (2008-06-23)
i486-pc-linux-gnu

locale:
C

attached base packages:
[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base Package: SSOAP
Version:       0.5-0
Date:          2009/05/04
Package:              XML
Version:              2.3-0
Date:                 2009/03/04
Package:              RCurl
Version:              0.97-3
Package:       XMLSchema
Version:       0.1-0

I must be stupid but I can't find XMLSchema on the omegahat website. (I just installed the 0.1-0 version a few days ago when trying to use SSOAP.) Google gives nothing useful for "XMLSchema site:omegahat.org".

 http://www.omegahat.org/XMLSchema/XMLSchema_0.1-1.tar.gz

or from a link in
   http://www.omegahat.org/XMLSchema/

or via the repository using

  install.packages("XMLSchema", repos = "http://www.omegahat.org/R";)
Thanks a lot: with the new version, calling my SOAP services work like a charm!

It would be nice to add a link to XMLSchema from the main page, to make it easier to find for users... And for Google! (So that it will index the page.)

Calling with the "normal" SOAP call works without trouble. However I can't use the "genSOAPClientInterface" way... See example hereunder.

I can use the "normal" interface to my SOAP service anyway, so it is not *that* important if I can't make the genSOAPClientInterface call work. I just wanted to let you know, and also that way might reveal simpler for my user... Please tell me if I can try something else, if you have some time to look at it...

I'm beginner in both web services and R programming (my knowledge is more in desktop & CORBA Java programming). I am simply trying to make Java and R communicate (call Java code from R remotely), for use by someone else who works in R. I'd like to provide him with a fully functional example. I must recognize that having to step through SSOAP code to find where the problem lies might be too difficult considering my current knowledge (knowing I don't intend to become an expert R programmer). Please don't take it as rude or implying that I'm simply expecting someone to solve the problem for me: I am ready to investigate but I'd simply like to have an idea of how difficult it will be. If I have to patch part of SSOAP or if you think that the functions I need are not implemented yet, then I'd better not insist and try to communicate from R to Java using an other way. If on the other hand you think it should be working and is simply a matter of using the right version of the right package, or using an other web services platform on the Java side, or configuring something differently, etc., then I'll happily dig into it.


Either of Simon Urbanek's rJava or Rserve packages are worth investigating.

More generally, if someone has a suggestion on what to use to call Java over TCP/IP from R, I'd be interested. I am currently considering OSS as well as SSOAP. I'd prefer learning an approach that I can reuse for other languages, so possibly a standard like SOAP or CORBA would be best.

Thanks for any pointer.

I tried different "action" values, because I don't know what I should put there. But I always get the same error.

Also, FYI, the following command produces the following output:
smg8Def <- processWSDL("http://smg8.ulb.ac.be:8080/axis2/services/Version?wsdl";, verbose=TRUE)
processing (sub) schema http://axisversion.sample
1 ) Exception
2 ) Exception
3 ) getVersionResponse
Warning message:
In processWSDL("http://smg8.ulb.ac.be:8080/axis2/services/Version?wsdl";, :

and then

I also tried a simpler service (WSDL manually created myself, but I am not sure it is correct although it validates): smg8EchoDef <- processWSDL("http://smg8.ulb.ac.be:8080/axis2/services/EchoService?wsdl";, verbose=TRUE)
processing (sub) schema http://smg8.ulb.ac.be/echoSvc/
1 ) TheString
   genSOAPClientInterface(def = smg8EchoDef)
Error in d...@operations[[1]] : subscript out of bounds
Indeed:
   length(smg8echo...@operations)
[1] 0
