Conversion error

[CoolBreeze812]

Hi,

Could some one help me with a conversion error I'm receiving. I'm trying to get the weather using webserviceX.net and I get the following error when I try to compile. By the way this is a ASP.NET 2.0 app.

Cannot implicitly convert type 'net.webservicex.www.WeatherData[]' to 'net.webservicex.www.WeatherData'

Here is the code I'm using.

net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecast forcast = new net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecast();
        net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecasts forcasts = new net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecasts();
        net.webservicex.www.WeatherData data = new net.webservicex.www.WeatherData();
 
        forcasts = forcast.GetWeatherByZipCode("07747");
        data = forcasts.Details;
 
        TextBox1.Text = data.ToString();
 

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could please help me resolve this.

Thank you.

(Please use the code tags)

Line 1 you are creating a variable (forcasts) to hold a single forcast.
You need to declare forcasts as an array instead so that you can retrieve the array of forcasts returned by the GetWeatherByZipCode function on Line 5.

Thanks for the reply and sorry about the code I realized it after I had already clicked submit.

Can you please provide an example. If I make forcasts an array I won't be able to access the web method 'Details'.

First you make forcasts an array that holds a bunch of forcast information objects.
Then when you want to access a specific forcast you'll do something like:

net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecast forcast = new net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecast();
net.webservicex.www.WeatherForecast forcasts[] = forcast.GetWeatherByZipCode("07747");
int i;
for(i=0;i<forcasts.length;i++)
{
    TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text +" "+ forcasts[i].Details;
}
 

(Please note that I usually work in VB.NET so this code may not work)
