Hello :)
I'm trying to write a script that deals with a web service.
I'm using NuSoap class.
my question is : Can I pass some variables By Reference to the web
service and get the result back in my variables ??
note1: I'm not the one who wrote the web service.. so I can't modify
it.
note2: the web services is written using .NET if this could help
thank you
Best Regards,

First, do you know what by reference means? This can be done, depending on
the complexity of the service, but for the most part you are only passing a
*reference* to a variable, so how does the service know what the variable
data is? (since it is hosted on another machine)

Hello :)
thanks for reply,
ofcourse I know what by reference is.. that's why my question began
with "Can I" not "How...".
but what I thought.. that may be some -behind the scene- occurs. so
the web service returns the variables passed as references as a
regular return. then PHP takes the returned by reference and assign
them to the variables which been passed in the function/web service
call.
anyway, as I said I'm not the one who wrote the web service.. but
someone in another company did and he used vb.net.
In fact I sent him asking "and how could your web service use the
references of my variables ?!!!" and I'm waiting his reply
sorry If I asked a question that doesn't have an answer but I wasn't
sure that it couldn't be done.
please if you have any ideas about how to return multi results.. let
me know.
Until now.. a second solution in my head is using structs.. but I also
don't know if it will work with web services or not. ( didn't make any
test yet )
Thanks a lot

Sorry if my question seem rude, this was not my intent, just wanted to know
if you had a clear understanding of it. (perhaps I should find a better
aproach)
Are you locked into needint to send the referece? maybe you could write a
wrapper function, that would take the reference, assign it a varaible, pass
the variable data, and when returned, rejoin to reference?
hmm, you mentioned structures, I take it you may also be trying to pass
multiple items? thus the need to pass reference to struct, in order to pass
all items in it?
if you just need to have it return a diff reference, as in an index pointer,
then the reference is the data, and that should not be a problem, but the
service (for the most part) will not see the data linked to the reference.
oh, last but not least, there the wrapper again, passing the sturc reference
to a function, having the function pass each item in it to the service,
rebuilding the structure on return.
Just a shot in the dark :)

thank you a lot :)
in fact, you inspired me with some great ideas to solve this!
and yes as you said..
I try to pass multiple items.. and also try to recieve mulpile returns
:)
passing mulpile items as not the problem.. the problem with recieving
multiple items.
I will try all your ideas
thanks so much

Those of you with backgrounds with the C language will laugh at my

Could someone clarify for me the method parameter passing
concept?
As I understand it, if you pass a variable without

Ok, I've removed the MyItem class which is found in References.cs and
replaced it with a reference to the namespace that has MyItem in it. I've
also got rid of the tag at the top of the MyItem class.
the web service works now, only the problem is, it only returns objects
which are created by the default constructor.
