all,
while converting a .net class file to a xml webservice i have encountered
some problems. First I cannot seem to be able to pass optional parameters to
a web method. I have also found problems with the sqldatareader as a "byref"
parameter of a web method. This problem entails not being able to return a
datareader from a webservice. I also tried to return it via a function and
had no luck. Are these limitiations of xml webservices or am I not being
creative enough?
For some scenarios instead of using optional parameters I have created
overloaded functions and used the "messagename" property of the webmethod to
uniquely identify the individual function when publishing the webmethod.
I have not found any real solution for the sqldatareader problem.
Please help!
