Creation of SOAP message does not put elements in proper sequence of complex typ

Hi!

hmm... how exactly are you creating the request? From within the form-editor?

I add new project via WSDL endpoint (URL) and that creates the sample SOAP message.  Then I complete the data in the form view and then view the raw xml and see the order has changed.  Even if I fix up the xml ito the proper order in raw xml then do form again the order changes.

Now something that is wierd .. it always results in the same re-ordering.

I can provide a  sample endpoint for your testing if necessary

thanks,

We have the same problem here.

In SOAPui pro the form editor mixes up elements. (it puts them in the wrong order) It appears to be always one element down when you remove add optional elements.
According support this is going to be fixed in 3.6.1

Hello Support,

We are looking into renewing our license. However this bug should then be fixed can this be confirmed?

Hi Dick,

can you share your WSDL with us so we can dig into this?

We have also had this problem for almost a year. I tried the beta 4 version and the problem is still there.

The symptoms are that adding elements in the form view does not add them in the schema order. You have to manually go to the xml view and cut and paste to get it in the correct order.

This defeats the whole purpose of buying the Pro version for us, since it is being used by business users who don't know how to edit xml and want to use the form view. I'm not sure why there haven't been more reports of this, since it seems to be a pretty serious problem.

Here is an example of the type of sequence that will not be conformed to:

 <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="1" name="TXCommonData" type="TXCommonType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-102" type="TXFranchisePubInfoReportCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-158A" type="TXFranchiseTaxReportACType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-158B" type="TXFranchiseTaxReportBCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-160" type="TXCreditsSummaryScheduleCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-163" type="TXFranchiseNoTaxDueReportCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-164" type="TXFranchiseExtRequestCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-165" type="TXFranchiseExtAffilListCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-166" type="TXFranchiseAffiliatesScheCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-167" type="TXOwnershipInfoReportCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-169" type="TXFranchiseTaxReportEZCType"/>
    <xsd:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" name="Form05-175" type="TXFranchiseTieredParReprtCType"/>

I've noticed also that the form view displays elements in the order according to the schema, not the order of the actual xml. So its confusing, because everything looks good in the form view, but when you look at the actual xml, it is out of order. This requires a technical person to go in and edit xml for many test cases.

Hi,

we are very much aware of the issue, this is planned to be fixed in the final 4.0 release. Can you provide us with your WSDL also so we have some more cases to use for verification?

Please see attached WSDL/schemas.

You should be able to duplicate the issue by importing into SoapUI and using the form view to add forms. Then look at the generated XML in xml view.

Let me know if i can be of further help.

Hi,

thanks for this!

Hi,

hmm.. the XML looks ok for my tests, probably I'm not adding what I should to provoke this.. can you give me more detailed instructions on what to add in which order?

Thanks in advance!
