coldfusion publish webservice using SOAP - soap

Question

I am trying to create a web service that can be consumed with SOAP. I were exercising with normal webservices that returns any values, but know i want to check which elements in the SOAP:BODY are needed and return them with a response. I found the methods
GetSoapRequest()
and
AddSoapResponse()
in the livedoc from adobe, but don't understand how to use them.
I saw the explenation of a request and response on w3school.com
i tried to solve the Problem with the tags "cfsavecontent"
<cffunction
name="soap"
access="remote"
returntype="any"
output="false">
<cfsavecontent variable="soapMessage">
<?xml version="1.0">
<soap:Envelope
xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope"
soap:encodingStyle="http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-encoding">
<soap:Header>
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>
<m:GetPriveResponse xmlns:m="namespace">
<m:Price>1.90</m:Price>
</m:GetPriceResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
</cfsavecontent>
but it only works, if the cffunction has returntype="any". The type "xml" occurs an error.
thx for helf

The easiest way to create a web service in CF, see

I just installed the soapUI eclipse addon and called the WSDL that includes an argument of a complexe type. After testing the methods of my web service with the addon, I got the SOAP-Message I was searching all the time. Maybe it will help anybody, i just where searching long time for this solution.
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:com="http://components.conner.somebody">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<com:echoAddress soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<input xsi:type="com:Address">
<City xsi:type="xsd:string">?</City>
<Country xsi:type="xsd:string">?</Country>
<State xsi:type="xsd:string">?</State>
<Street xsi:type="xsd:string">?</Street>
</input>
</com:echoAddress>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Here is the method of the coldfusion component that will be called
<cffunction
name="echoAddress"
returnType="address"
output="false"
access="remote">
<cfargument
name="input"
type="address">
<cfreturn #arguments.input#>
</cffunction>
