Invalid Cast Exception - .NET Framework

Ben Crinion

Hi

Im getting the error below when i try and cosume this web service
http://ftp.mediaburst.com/ben/wsdl/SearchService.wsdl.

I think the error is due to the array in
http://ftp.mediaburst.com/ben/wsdl/Types.wsdl but i dont know why.

I am trying to consume a SOAP::Lite perl web service so i think that
requires that i use a "rpc" style binding and encoded body instead of
literal.

Any help would be greatfully received.
Thanks
Ben Crinion

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
