hi,

i have a webservice written in vb.net with this method:

    <WebMethod()> _
    Public Function GetBinaryFile() As Byte()
        'Open a file stream.
        Dim pobjFileStream As System.IO.FileStream = New
System.IO.FileStream("C:\Inetpub\wwwroot
\WebService1\DPackSetup2003.exe", IO.FileMode.Open)
        'Allocate a byte array that will hold the contents.
        Dim pbytBytes As Byte() = New Byte(pobjFileStream.Length - 1)
{}
        'Now read the stream.
        pobjFileStream.Read(pbytBytes, 0, pobjFileStream.Length)
        'Now convert to a base64 string and return.
        Return pbytBytes
    End Function

What this method does is to return a byte array with the contents of
the file. What i want to do is to have a java client that will get
this byte array and write it to disk. I came up with the following
method:

    private void jButton3MouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt)
{
// TODO add your handling code here:


        try { // Call Web Service Operation
            javawebservice_dotnet_axis.Service1 service = new
javawebservice_dotnet_axis.Service1();
            javawebservice_dotnet_axis.Service1Soap port =
service.getService1Soap();
            // TODO process result here
            javawebservice_dotnet_axis.Stream result =
port.getBinaryFile();

            //Grava ficheiro
            java.io.OutputStreamWriter aux = new
java.io.OutputStreamWriter(new java.io.FileOutputStream("C:\\Documents
and Settings\\me\\Desktop\\savedStream.exe") );
            aux.write(result.toString());
            aux.flush();
            aux.close();


        } catch (Exception ex) {
            // TODO handle custom exceptions here
        }
    }

Theorically i should serialize the result to disk but when the program
reaches the code line 'javawebservice_dotnet_axis.Stream result =
port.getBinaryFile();', it automatically jumps to the end of the
method whitout throwing any kind of exception.

Can someone help me on this?

Thanks in advance for your attention,
Marcelino

I already found out what was happening. Apparently the wsdl file from
the webservice wasn't updated. After updating the file, all run great.

Thanks anyway.
