I have run into a nasty little soap/c#/.net problem and would appreciate any assistance available.

below is the soap message being sent
HEADERS - identical to wsdl
"Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8"
"SOAPAction", "http://mfelcansmith.alpha.kaplaninc.com/Add"
"HOST","mfelcansmith.alpha.kaplaninc.com

Soap Request:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope ...namespaces...>
<soap:Body>
<DCT_test xmlns="http://mfelcansmith.alpha.kaplaninc.com">
<strKey_val>teststring</strKey_val>
</DCT_test>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>


C# web method

        [WebMethod]
        [System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapDocumentMethodAt tribute("http://mfelcansmith.alpha.kaplaninc.com/DCT_test",
        Use=System.Web.Services.Description.SoapBindingUse .Literal, ParameterStyle=System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapP arameterStyle.Wrapped)]

        public return_code DCT_test(string strKey_val)
            {

            return_code return_code=new return_code();
            return_code.intReturn_code = 0;
            return_code.strReturn_code = "test";
            return_code.strReturn_code = strKey_val + "-test";
            return return_code;
            }



The response does not include the passed parameter and in debug mode the parameter value is null.

soap-response:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope ...namespaces...>
<soap:Body>
<DCT_testResponse xmlns="http://mfelcansmith.alpha.kaplaninc.com/">
<DCT_testResult><intReturn_code>0</intReturn_code>
<strReturn_code>-test</strReturn_code>
<strReturn_code_desc />
</DCT_testResult>
</DCT_testResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

I have tried different soap parameter styles with the same effect.

Thanks for your time and assistance,

Any difference if you change your variable name to be different to your class?

joefawcett,
Thanks for looking into it.
unfortunately changing the variable name did not make a difference.
I should say that I have written 4 test web services and NONE of them seem to actually grab the parameter values from the soap body, they all work fine in http: post key value pairs.

I am trying to put some code in intializeComponent that will show me what the saop looks like coming in.

I am at a loss otherwise.
I need to find out what is happening between my posting the soap and the web method being executed that is either blocking or clearing the parameters that are in the soap body.

Try searching for WFetch on msdn.com. It lets you see all the headers etc. when pages are requested as well as the response. I can email it you if you can't download it.
