I have never used a config binding, but sure can look into it if you can put a snippet of the service and the config itself. Probably you misplaced the tags?

Hi, I was trying your sample code.....after including ksoap2 jar file....while running the app on emulator.....it shows ws has stopped working after click on the result button........also i am unable to debug in the callsoap class even after attaching the source of ksaop. please help

1. Is your Internet connection fine?

A quick solution :

Rename "ksoap2-android-assembly-2.6.5-jar-with-dependencies.zip" to "ksoap2.jar"
2. In Eclipse, on the Project Explorer right click the root of the project (Where the name of the project is), selected "New", "Folder" and created a new folder called libs
3. Went back to my file explorer. Right click "ksoap2.jar", "copy"
4. In Eclipse, right click the newly created "libs" folder and select "paste"


Important
Create a folder named 'libs' at the root directory of the project. Then copy the Jar file in 'libs' and referenced the jar in the project from this 'libs' folder.


If it still does not work , just leave us with a screen shot. Ok dont forget to comment every try and catch block in calling class.

Hello,
Thanks for creating this article, it has been very helpful. I'm having one issue that maybe you can help resolve. My web service doesnt seem to be accepting the variable format of th input. It works, cause if i hard code a return value it displays correctly in the Android app. When i have the web service save the values into the database the results for both variables are null. I believe the issue is that the soap call is passing name value pairs (i.e. the request variable containes "Add{a=5; b=5; }" in debug mode) and the web service is just expecting 5, 5.
Not having worked with Andriod apps, soap or web service before im not sure. Web service as follows.
Thanks, Gary

[WebMethod]
publicint Add(int a, int b)
{
return 24;
//return a + b;
}

I think it should be:

    CSHARP Programming

[WebMethod]
public int Add(int a, int b)
{
 
return (a + b);
}

Crete a directory name libs in your project directory. Copy the jar file in that directory. Reference the jar file from that directory and you should be done.
