KSoap 2 API Packages; org.ksoap2: This package contains basic classes required for handling SOAP Envelopes and literal XML content.
News 2014-04-18 - For more recent versions of kSOAP, please refer to the 2006-06-08 - Full release of 2.1.1 fixing flusing problem while debugging the application. 2006-03-13 - Beta release with some small changes and updated javadocs. Diffs between 2.0.x and this version are located. 2006-03-08 - Updates fixing some bugs and working towards a releasable version. 2006-02-05 - The project is undergoing work to enhance testing increase stability and keep pushing forward development to remove bugs and apply new features About kSOAP2 is a lightweight library for use in constrained devices. It is not meant to be an all encompassing do-it-all library.
However it is meant to interoperate with most popular SOAP engines. Please note that SOAP introduces some significant overhead for web services that may be problematic for mobile devices. If you have full control over the client and the server, a simple REST / JSON based architecture may be more adequate. KSOAP2 is made up of an XML parser, a de/serializer, and a transport layer. XML Parser The parser used in kSOAP2 is an efficient type of parser. De/Serializer This section is responsible for mapping the object representation to the xml representation and back again.
When using ComplexTypes in kSOAP, the objects that the serialization layer can operate on implement the interface. Since the J2ME platform (the primary target platform) doesn't have reflection, this interface provides a mechanism that the serializer uses to set and get properties on the anonymous object. To use this mapping service you need to 'register' your 'Serializable' objects so that the engine knows how to map the name it finds in the xml to the name of the class it will load the values into. If the objects aren't complex types or the complex types aren't registered, the serializer can wrap the objects into or to. Transport The transport layer provides the mechanism on which the SOAP messages are exchanged between server and client. Work is continuing to abstract this layer so that different types of can be 'plugged in' for testing, or for other communication mediums. The basic transport mechanisms that are currently included in the library are for J2ME platforms and for J2SE 12.
Differences to previous versions kSOAP 2 is a complete redesign, taking the lessons learned from kSOAP 1.x into account. Some important changes are:.
Structure cleaned up. kSOAP2 has improved support for literal encoding. SOAP Serialization support is now optional and contained in a separate package. Several separate classes have been integrated into the class SoapSerializationEnvelope, providing SOAP serialization support. SoapSerializationEnvelope extends the base class SoapEnvelope.
A dotNet flag can be used to switch the SoapSerializationEnvelope from standard behaviour to the namespace handling that seems to be default in.NET Unfortunately, the improvements will require some additional effort when porting applications from kSOAP 1 to kSOAP 2. KSOAP 1 is deprecated and archived at (thanks to the objectweb.org team for keeping the kSOAP 1 pages after the merger with enhydra.org). Documentation The kSOAP JavaDoc and some examples are contained in the source distribution. An online version of the kSOAP2 API can be found online.

Help Wanted If you have created an open source client for a web service that is open to anyone, please let us know, so we can reference it here or include it in the kSOAP examples!
