nsdata to nsstring to nsdata
- by Jayshree
Hello everybody. I am calling the webservices. The web service returns data in xml format. Now the problem is the xml data is not being received in proper format. In place of "<", "" it returns in html format like-(<) and (>) . So i assigned the xmldata to a NsMutableString and replaced the escape characters so that the format of xml data is proper. Then i reassigned the NSMutableString to NSData so that i can parse the tags. but the problem is the xmlparser stops right where the xml data is. Where i replaced the tags. it doesnt go further. can anybody make me understand what is going on????
This is the xml response from webservice that i called.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:GetCustomerInfoResponse xmlns:ns1="http://aa.somewebservice.com/phpwebservice">
<return xsi:type="xsd:string">
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><customer><id>1</id><customername>Hitesh</customername><phonenumber>98989898</phonenumber></customer>
</return>
</ns1:GetCustomerInfoResponse>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
And this is after i replaced the tags.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:GetCustomerInfoResponse xmlns:ns1="http://a.somewebservice.com/phpwebservice">
<return xsi:type="xsd:string">
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<customer><id>1</id><customername>Hitesh</customername><phonenumber>98989898</phonenumber></customer>
</return>
</ns1:GetCustomerInfoResponse>
</SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
Now the problem is while parsing the parser only goes upto return tag. And then it is stuck there. It doesnt go any further. So wat do i do? anybody care to help me?
