Set() and Get() in Web Service

Unless you show us some code, my best guess is that the getName() method looks like this:

public String getName() {

return null;

}

Although that's most likely not the case. :-)

After a quick test to duplicate what you're trying to do here's what I think is going on.

If you're using a locator class or method to get the reference to your end point which would look something like this

private CalculatorPort locateCalculatorService()

throws IOException, ServiceException

{

String wsdlUrl = "http://localhost:7001/CalculatorService/Calculator?WSDL" ;

Calculator service = new Calculator_Impl(wsdlUrl) ;

return service.getCalculatorPort() ;

}

if you call the locator method like this

public void someMethod()

{

locateCalculatorService().setString("kevin'") ;

locateCalculatorService().getString() ;

}

What's happening is that you have two different instances of the service end point.

So try it like this instead

public void someMethod()

{

CalculatorPort port = locateCalculatorService() ;

port.setString('kevin') ;

port getString() ;

}

Try it that way.

Doesn't change my feeling that keeping state of this type on a service is not a good idea but if you really have to it actually does work.

Hope this helps,

PS.
