Question

I need to access a .NET webservice in my android application. I did it using the ksoap2 library. I set up the connection and everything but I am not able to get the data back from the service. The service is supposed to send back a set of values. How do I catch those values ?

This is my java code to access the web-service.

SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
    SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = 
        new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11); 
    envelope.dotNet = true;
    envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);


    AndroidHttpTransport androidHttpTransport = new AndroidHttpTransport(URL);

    try {
        androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);

        //code to get back the values here. This is my doubt. 
                    //What code do I write here to get the values from the service ?

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

And this is the format of the response from the service.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"       xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetControlResponse xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
      <GetControlResult>
    <Id>int</Id>
    <Belt>boolean</Belt>
    <Lighting>boolean</Lighting>
    <AutoSpeed>boolean</AutoSpeed>
    <ManualSpeed>short</ManualSpeed>
    <Projector>boolean</Projector>
    <ProjecterPattern>short</ProjecterPattern>
  </GetControlResult>
</GetControlResponse>
 </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
