How to send "ArrayOfString" in soap request?

Question

The method I am using is expecting an array of string - I only want to send one value (first_name) associated with the parameter "attributes" - It works in SOAPUI

SoapObject request2 = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAMEdoselect); 
request2.addProperty("sid", usersid);
request2.addProperty("objectType","cnt");   
request2.addProperty("whereClause","first_name = 'Olivia'");
request2.addProperty("maxRows",-1);
request2.addProperty("attributes","first_name");

From the requestdump it shows it's sending a string rather than an array. How do I make it an Arrayofstring? I can't seem to find any info on this.

If you need any more info just let me know!

Try this way,hope this will help you to solve your problem.

public class Array implements KvmSerializable {

    private String sid;
    private String objectType;
    private String whereClause;
    private String maxRows;
    private String attributes;

    public String getSid() {
        return sid;
    }

    public void setSid(String sid) {
        this.sid = sid;
    }

    public String getObjectType() {
        return objectType;
    }

    public void setObjectType(String objectType) {
        this.objectType = objectType;
    }

    public String getWhereClause() {
        return whereClause;
    }

    public void setWhereClause(String whereClause) {
        this.whereClause = whereClause;
    }

    public String getMaxRows() {
        return maxRows;
    }

    public void setMaxRows(String maxRows) {
        this.maxRows = maxRows;
    }

    public String getAttributes() {
        return attributes;
    }

    public void setAttributes(String attributes) {
        this.attributes = attributes;
    }




    @Override
    public Object getProperty(int arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        switch (arg0){
            case 0:
                return sid;
            case 1:
                return objectType;
            case 2:
                return whereClause;
            case 3:
                return maxRows;
            case 4:
                return attributes;
            default:
                return null;
        }

    }
    @Override
    public int getPropertyCount() {
        return 5; //number of passing parameters
    }
    @Override
    public void getPropertyInfo(int arg0, Hashtable arg1, PropertyInfo arg2) {
        switch(arg0)
        {

            case 0:
                arg2.type = PropertyInfo.STRING_CLASS;
                arg2.name = "sid"; 
                break;
            case 1:
                arg2.type = PropertyInfo.STRING_CLASS;
                arg2.name = "objectType";
                break;
            case 2:
                arg2.type = PropertyInfo.STRING_CLASS;
                arg2.name = "whereClause";
                break;
            case 3:
                arg2.type = PropertyInfo.OBJECT_CLASS;
                arg2.name = "maxRows";
                break;
            case 4:
                arg2.type = PropertyInfo.OBJECT_CLASS;
                arg2.name = "attributes";
                break;
            default:break;
        }
    }
    @Override
    public void setProperty(int arg0, Object arg1) {
        switch(arg0)
        {
            case 0:
                sid =  (String)arg1;
                break;
            case 1:
                objectType =  (String)arg1;
                break;
            case 2:
                whereClause =  (String)arg1;
                break;
            case 3:
                maxRows = (String)arg1;
                break;
            case 4:
                attributes = (String)arg1;
                break;

            default:
                break;
        }
    }
}

Array array = new Array();
array.setFirstname(firstname);
array.setLastname(lastname);
array.setAddress(address);
array.setCity(city);
array.setState(state);

In doInBackground add this:

PropertyInfo pInfo = new PropertyInfo();
pInfo.setName("array");
pInfo.setValue(array);
pInfo.setType(array.getClass());

SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
request.addProperty(pInfo);
