Array data sequence problem

Hi,

My name is Lunga Zonke and I work for an organization called "Micro to Mainframe" which is based is South Africa.
We bought a soapui pro license a few months back with the intention of implementing a SWIFT message generator through a web service.

We are currently experiencing a problem with the sequencing of array data. We enter the array data using the form view of soap ui pro.
The problem is that we need this array data to follow a specific sequence, and we enter this data in this sequence. When we save the soapui pro project,
The array data is not saved in the sequence that we entered it, and hence the data of our message is incorrect.

Can you please let us know what we can do in order to ensure that soapui pro saves the array data in the sequence that we entered it.

Your response will be much appreciated.

Thank you and Regards.
Lunga

  • Hi,

    Reordering elements when edited from the Form view in soapUI Pro is a known bug and is planned to be fixed, unfortunately I can't give you any exact time prediction. Is using Outline view or Xml view an option?

  • Hi,

    We seem to have found a work around for this problem in 3.6.
    the form view in soapui 3.6 takes the first element of the array sequence, and places it in the last position of the array.
    The rest of the elements are kept in sequence, just moved one position up in the array sequence i.e in an array "tag" of 11 elements,
    tag[0] becomes tag[10], tag[1] becomes tag[0], tag[2] becomes tag[1] etc...
