RegisterExtension with standard Http client

[begoua]

Hello,

I try to register plug-in with my own http client in my application.

I create SOAP message en send it to http://vcenterIP/sdk/vimService

It work with propertyCollector message and other.

But when i try to send a soap message for register a plug-in, i have an error

<soapenv:Fault><faultcode>ServerFaultCode</faultcode><faultstring>Not initialized: string version</faultstring><detail><InvalidRequestFault xmlns=\"urn:vim25\" xsi:type=\"InvalidRequest\"></InvalidRequestFault></detail>

I think that the soap message that i send is correct because i have test it with the MOB interface of vCenter https://vCEnterIP/mob/?moid=EventManager

below my xml message:

<soapenv:Body><RegisterExtension xmlns="urn:vim25">

<_this type="ExtensionManager">ExtensionManager</_this>

<extension>

It's more than the SOAP message itself, but also the related HTTP headers. Check out this article:
