Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Martin van Es <>]

Hi Chris,

A little breakthrough in the attributes quest! I've got an attribute returned!

<ns:wsSubject type="edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.ws.soap.WsSubject">
<ns:attributeValues>Martin van Es</ns:attributeValues>
<ns:id>mrvanes</ns:id>
<ns:identifierLookup xsi:nil="true"/>
<ns:name xsi:nil="true"/>
<ns:resultCode>SUCCESS</ns:resultCode>
<ns:sourceId>example</ns:sourceId>
<ns:success>T</ns:success>
</ns:wsSubject>

The query I used now was:
<ns1:getGroupsLite 
xmlns:ns1="http://soap.ws.grouper.middleware.internet2.edu/xsd";>
        <ns1:clientVersion>v1_4_000</ns1:clientVersion>
        <ns1:subjectId>$_GET[user]</ns1:subjectId>
        <ns1:subjectSourceId></ns1:subjectSourceId>
        <ns1:subjectIdentifier></ns1:subjectIdentifier>
        <ns1:memberFilter>All</ns1:memberFilter>
        <ns1:actAsSubjectId>GrouperSystem</ns1:actAsSubjectId>
        <ns1:actAsSubjectSourceId></ns1:actAsSubjectSourceId>
        <ns1:actAsSubjectIdentifier></ns1:actAsSubjectIdentifier>
        <ns1:includeGroupDetail>true</ns1:includeGroupDetail>
        <ns1:includeSubjectDetail>true</ns1:includeSubjectDetail>
        <ns1:subjectAttributeNames>description</ns1:subjectAttributeNames>
</ns1:getGroupsLite>

So there definately is a problem with the G-FIV-O wso2/php example code :(
What I find confusing is that despite the fact that the parameters are named 
explicitly, I can't leave them out, even the ones that contain no string. Eg. 
removing subjectSourceId results in "Problem with boolean 
'includeSubjectDetail', Invalid string to boolean conversion: 'description' 
expecting true|false or t|f or yes|no or y|n case insensitive", which implies 
that the parameter is referenced by it's position and not the name... using 
names in this case is only more confusing!

So I would suggest to either stick with positional referencing as a 
guideline, 
or fix the passing of parameters to respect their name?!

But... one remark: why would you return subjectAttributeNames as a child of 
getGroupsLiteResponse/return? I would expect it to be a child of 
getGroupsLiteResponse/return/wsSubject, so it is near the subject's 
attributeValues, just like the children of 
getGroupsLiteResponse/return/wsGroups/detail?

Martin
