android - How to consume SOAP web service in SENCHA TOUCH?

Question

I am new to sencha touch and i want to consume soap web service in sencha touch.I have written code for this cause, but the problem is that I am getting just plain HTML content as response not the soap object. And I dont know how to call a specific method from web service to sencha touch.

Here's my code :-

Ext.Ajax.request({

    method: 'get',
    url: 'http://192.168.1.15:80/himanshu/helloworldwebservice.asmx',
    success: function (response, request) { 
    alert('Working!') 
    alert(response.responseText)
    console.log('Response:-'+response.responseText)
    },
    failure: function (response, request) {
    alert('Not working!')
    console.log('Response Status:- '+response.status)
    }

});

EDIT:- Ok i got the idea to call a specific method from web service from here.Like i have HelloWorld() method which only returns a single string and my url is http://192.168.1.15:80/himanshu/helloworldwebservice.asmx. I can call HelloWorld() method by setting my url like this :- http://192.168.1.15:80/himanshu/helloworldwebservice.asmx/HelloWorld

But its not working for me.Every time i run the program 'Not Working' alert generates and 500 is the response stats i gets.Please make me understand that how can i call methods from webservice.Thanx in advance.

You will not be able to consume your SOAP webservice in this way, since performing a GET request on the asmx url will just return you the HTML content for the page listing your webservice methods.

Consuming SOAP webservices relies on POST requests and need that you send a correct XML SOAP request. I may suggest you to use something like http://archive.plugins.jquery.com/project/jqSOAPClient to execute your SOAP calls and retrieve your data and then pass them back to your Ext code.

Hope this helps
