Soap Webservice. How to ?

[SorenJensen]

Hi All,

I need to receive data from a webservice after a request.

I will normally include the webservice specs as a wsdl (*.pas file), and communicate with the service using XML.

Is that possible in IntraWeb 15.1.5 and if, do anyone have any examples of how to ?

In a Delphi 2010 Win32 program, I include the WDSL as a unit, and call the procedures it expose, as I would any other procedures. The resulting data are received as an XML file, which I then decipher (with a parser) and pull out the data I need.

In a similar C# program in MS Visual Studio 2010, it's a bit easier as XML is an native part, making the individual data in the XML, available as properties of the XML file.

Is there anything similar awailable in IntraWeb ?

Hi Soren,

The process is identical even in an IW app (though I use c++). I generate the unit from the wsdl file (or the wizard) and then, in the usersession, a function calls the webservice and gets the response. All works around the HTTPRIO component as usual.

Ciao
