  I am using the 'suds' javascript SOAP client http://github.com/kwhinnery/Suds
  But I had to modify 2 functions first:

  Change the getXHR function from this

    function getXHR() {
      var xhr;
      if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
        xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
      }
      else {
        xhr = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
      }
      return xhr;
    }
  

  to this

    function getXHR() {
      return Titanium.Network.createHTTPClient();
    }
  

  And next change the xmlDomFromString function from this:

  function xmlDomFromString(_xml) {
    var xmlDoc = null;
    if (window.DOMParser) {
      parser = new DOMParser();
      xmlDoc = parser.parseFromString(_xml,"text/xml");
    }
    else {
      xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
      xmlDoc.async = "false";
      xmlDoc.loadXML(_xml); 
    }
    return xmlDoc;
  }
  

  to this:

  function xmlDomFromString(_xml) {
    xmlDoc = Titanium.XML.parseString(_xml); 
    return xmlDoc;
  }
  

  You can now do a SOAP request.

  I use this xml result for the example

  <SampleResult>
      <property>value</property>
  </SampleResult>
  

  You can retrieve the property value by doing:

  Titanium.include('suds.js');
  
  var suds = new SudsClient({ 
      endpoint: "http://domain.com/service.asmx",
      targetNamespace: "http://namespace/" 
  });
  
  var args = {propertyName: 'propertyValue'};
  
  suds.invoke("SampleMethod", args, function(xmlDoc) {
    var propertyList = xmlDoc.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("SampleResult");
      var value = propertyList.item(0).getElementsByTagName("property").item(0).text;
      alert(value);
  }
  

  I hope this helps :)

• Same thing here. I am also stuck at this point for some time…

• @Chad/Alexandros - I was wondering if you folks made any progress calling the SOAP web service written in C#?

  I am fairly new to web services. I've noticed other's talk about using WCF + JSON for their web services and I was wondering what your take on that is?

• Hi i am working with Soap call: I want to do a soap call to fetch data from server. In my case i want to fetch data from sugarCRM framework. But unfortunately i m not able to pass multidimensional json format to the server via sudonclient object. I have tried the same thing in PHP and it returns me exaclty what i want. I want to pass a selected field array to the server for field selection in mysql result. It working fine in php but not in titanium using json format.

  PHP code $product_list_params = array( 'session' => $session, 'module_name' => 'Accounts', 'query' => '', 'order_by'=>'', 'offset' => 0, 'select_fields' => array('id','name'), 'max_results' => 1, 'deleted' => 0 ); //parameters array

  $product_list_array = $client->call('get_entry_list',$product_list_params); //make call

  Titanium Code

  var data='{"session":"'+session_id+'","module_name":"'+m_name+'","query":"","order_by":"name asc","offset":"2","max_results":"10","deleted":"0","select_fields":["id","name"]}';

  var list=JSON.parse(data); //parse data

  suds.invoke('get_entry_list',list,function(xmlDoc){

  //But here i dont got any response data in

  var retNode = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('return').item(0);

  });
