I am writing a web service client in C# and do not want to create and serialize/deserialize objects, but rather send and receive raw XML.
Is this possible in C#?
Here is part of an implementation I just got running based on John M Gant's example. It is important to set the content type request header. Plus my request needed credentials.
protected virtual WebRequest CreateRequest(ISoapMessage soapMessage)
{
var wr = WebRequest.Create(soapMessage.Uri);
wr.ContentType = "text/xml;charset=utf-8";
wr.ContentLength = soapMessage.ContentXml.Length;
wr.Headers.Add("SOAPAction", soapMessage.SoapAction);
wr.Credentials = soapMessage.Credentials;
wr.Method = "POST";
wr.GetRequestStream().Write(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(soapMessage.ContentXml), 0, soapMessage.ContentXml.Length);
return wr;
}
public interface ISoapMessage
{
string Uri { get; }
string ContentXml { get; }
string SoapAction { get; }
ICredentials Credentials { get; }
}
