How to return PHP array and receive it with Java -

i have on webservice:

function listar($username) { $result = mysql_query("select name apks tipo=0"); //$registo = mysql_fetch_array($result); $numero = 0; while($registo = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $regs[$numero] = $registo['name']; $numero++; } homecoming $regs; //return mysql_fetch_array($result); }

in java, after soap phone call (not relevant now) read way:

object response = envelope.getresponse(); string x = response.tostring();

i need access 1 of fields (selected database) thought, why not split array strings?

i tried 2 methods:

string[] arr=x.split(" "); system.out.println("array :"+arr.length); for(int i=0;i<arr.length;i++) { .. } stringtokenizer starr=new stringtokenizer(x," "); while(starr.hasmoretokens()) { ... }

but none of them worked, whick create me believe i'm returning badly array in first place.

any help?

update:

so i'm using 1 time again xsd:string;

now have on webservice homecoming json_encode($regs);

to convert object response i'm using specific google api http://www.mkyong.com/java/how-do-convert-java-object-to-from-json-format-gson-api/

object response = envelope.getresponse(); gson gson = new gson(); string jstring = gson.tojson(response);

but i'm difficulty parsing "jstring" because it's format: "[\"something\",\"something\",\"something\",\"something\",.....]". have not identifier values.

how can extract dynamic values , assign them string[]?

use:

json_encode($array); in php

and

jsonobject in java read.

see example: http://www.androidcompetencycenter.com/2009/10/json-parsing-in-android/

update

change line:

$regs[$numero] = $registo['name'];

to:

$regs[] = array('name' => $registo["name"]);

if need id, can do:

$regs[] = array('name' => $registo["name"], 'id' => $registo["id"]);

forget:

the mysql_fetch_array returns real array not string. it's not needed split string.

be sure php web service returning xsd:array generate new proxy using generator http://www.soapui.org. utilize proxy. nil else.
