Sending XML file to the server...

[akki123]

Hi,

I am new Symbian.

I have to send a XML File to the server .

<root>
<h>
<msgt>restore</msgt>
<msg/>
<uid>919560922700</uid>
<hp>919560922700</hp>
<did>1908692458</did>
<currec>1</currec>
<totrec>1</totrec>
<loc>en_us</loc>
<ctime>1340189529699</ctime>
<lstime>1340189528844</lstime>
<synctype>
<mod>cs</mod>
<gran>contactlevel</gran>
<adde>true</adde>
<upde>true</upde>
<dele>true</dele>
</synctype>
</h>
<b>
<hp>919560922700</hp>
<username>919560922700</username>
<password>474747</password>
<phone_model>BlackBerry9300</phone_model>
</b>
</root>

and Response xml from server is: -->

<restore>OK</restore>


i tried it by :-->


HBufC8* iRegBuffer = HBufC8::NewL(1024);
HBufC* ptr1 = HBufC::NewL(30);
TPtr time = ptr1->Des();
iConnectionStatus = 2;
iRegBuffer->Des().Copy(_L("<root>"));
//TBuf<30> tempbuf1;
//tempbuf1->Des().Copy(_L("restore"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("restore"));
//CreateHeaderXML(tempbuf1);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<h>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<msgt>"));
//iRegBuffer.Append(msgType);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</msgt>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<uid>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iMobileNo);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</uid>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iMobileNo);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<did>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(PhoneImei());
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</did>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<currec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(1);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</currec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<totrec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(1);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</totrec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("loc>en_us</loc"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<ctime>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(*currTime);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</ctime>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<lstime>"));
GetSubStatusSyncTime(time);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(time);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</lstime>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<synctype><mod>cs</mod><gran>contactlevel</gran>\
<adde>true</adde><upde>true</upde><dele>true</dele></synctype>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</h>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<b>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iMobileNo);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<username>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iUserNames);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</username>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<password>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iPassword);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</password>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<phone_model>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iAxiomPhoneModel);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</phone_model>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</b>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</root>"));
servlet_data = iRegBuffer;


Is there any issue in this format. i am unable to sending it to the server.
Please suggest for the same . How we will get the response from the server .

Thanks in advance .

You could simply write the stuff into a debug-file to see what's in there in the end.

Anyway, you should really describe the problem, and also mention which API is giving the problem, and also the code segment that the problem is effecting to.

i am trying to send the mentioned xml file to the server using

if(iSocketWriterContactsStatus == NULL)
{

TRAPD(socketerr, iSocketWriterContactsStatus = CSocketsEngineWriter::NewL(*this));
if(socketerr == KErrNoMemory)
User::Exit(KErrNoMemory);

if(iSocketWriterContactsStatus != NULL)
{
iSocketWriterContactsStatus->SetServerName(iServerAddr);
iSocketWriterContactsStatus->SetPort(iPort);
iSocketWriterContactsStatus->iBuffer.FillZ();
iSocketWriterContactsStatus->iSendBuffer.FillZ();
iSocketWriterContactsStatus->iBuffer.Copy(*servlet_data);
iSocketWriterContactsStatus->iSendBuffer.Copy(*servlet_data);
ConnectToServer();
delete servlet_data;
servlet_data = NULL;
}
}

But not able to send the same.
Not able to establish the connection with the server .

[symbianyucca]

then you should check what happens inside the CSocketsEngineWriter.

Anyway, any good reason you have not considered on using HTTP API ?

. Please suggest a link to the example of the same.

If you already have a working server and it is not HTTP, you may want to think that switch again.

However your code

iRegBuffer->Des().Copy(_L("<root>"));
//TBuf<30> tempbuf1;
//tempbuf1->Des().Copy(_L("restore"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("restore"));
//CreateHeaderXML(tempbuf1);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<h>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<msgt>"));
//iRegBuffer.Append(msgType);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</msgt>"));

certainly results in different XML than what you need.

Just read it line-by-line:

iRegBuffer->Des().Copy(_L("<root>"));

<root>

//TBuf<30> tempbuf1;
//tempbuf1->Des().Copy(_L("restore"));

these were comments, the content is still <root>

iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("restore"));

restore is appended, so it is <root>restore now

//CreateHeaderXML(tempbuf1);

comment, the content is unchanged, <root>restore

iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<h>"));

<h> is appended, the content is <root>restore<h> now

iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<msgt>"));

<msgt> is appended, the content becomes <root>restore<h><msgt>

//iRegBuffer.Append(msgType);

comment, the content remains <root>restore<h><msgt>

iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</msgt>"));

</msgt> is appended, the content is <root>restore<h><msgt></msgt> here.

Writing in a similar style as your example:
<root>
restore
<h>
<msgt></msgt>

I hope you can see the difference. It was 5 minutes to write this post, and you do not even have to write it just read your code and check against the expected output.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Please suggest the link of example for the same. I have modified my xml file now it is like -

HBufC* currTime = NULL;
TTime ctime;
ctime.HomeTime();
currTime = GetTimeStamp(ctime);
HBufC8* iRegBuffer = HBufC8::NewL(1024);
HBufC* ptr1 = HBufC::NewL(30);
TPtr time = ptr1->Des();
iConnectionStatus = 2;
iRegBuffer->Des().Copy(_L("<root>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<h>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<msgt>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("restore"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</msgt>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<msg/>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<uid>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iMobileNo);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</uid>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iMobileNo);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<did>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(PhoneImei());
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</did>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<currec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(1);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</currec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<totrec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(1);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</totrec>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("loc>en_us</loc"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<ctime>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(*currTime);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</ctime>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<lstime>"));
GetSubStatusSyncTime(time);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(time);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</lstime>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<synctype><mod>cs</mod><gran>contactlevel</gran>\
<adde>true</adde><upde>true</upde><dele>true</dele></synctype>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</h>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<b>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iMobileNo);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</hp>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<username>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iUserNames);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</username>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<password>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iPassword);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</password>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("<phone_model>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(iAxiomPhoneModel);
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</phone_model>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</b>"));
iRegBuffer->Des().Append(_L("</root>"));
servlet_data = iRegBuffer;

Wizard is right, if you have socket server listening in your server, then you would need to go with the RSocket based implementation, and you would need to check what inside the CSocketsEngineWriter is going on, and what is failing there.

incase you don't know how your server is implemented, I would suggest checking that out first.
