Question

I am trying to consume a web service from android by the method SOAP.
This is the exact web service which i am trying to consume “http://54.251.60.177/TMSOrdersService/TMSDetails.asmx” .

the input values for this web service are

FromDate : 01/01/2012

ToDate : 07/07/2012

But the problem is,

After giving the proper values to that web service, i am getting this
“XML pull parser exception”

How to over come this issue?

thanks in advance!..

You need to make sure that you are sending the request as a String instead of passing a Date object.

  DateFormat formatter ; 
  formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy"); 

  Date date ;  
  date = (Date)formatter.parse("01/01/2012");  // to create a Date object

  String s = formatter.format(date); /// to create the Date to a String

Note : dd/MM/yyyy is the correct format that you should be using.
