Runs a procedure on a .Net server.

Note: The procedure parameters must be specified before using DotNetRun via the .Net structure (see the Notes).

Example

// This example assumes that the eightball module is available from "www.gotdotnet.com".
// The example would no longer operate if this module was not available on the site
DotNet.Value[1] = "enter a question" + ...
"just for fun: what would the answer be?"
DotNet.Name[1] = "psQuestion"
DotNet.Type[1] = DotNetStringType
IF DotNetRun("www.gotdotnet.com/playground/services/EightBall/eightballws.asmx", ...
"Ask", "http://tempuri.org/", "http://tempuri.org/Ask") THEN
Info(DotNetGetResult(DotNetResult))
ELSE
IF DotNetError(DotNetErrMessage) ~= "" THEN
Error(ErrorInfo())
ELSE
Error(".Net error: " + ...
DotNetError(DotNetErrMessage))
END
END

Syntax

<Result> = DotNetRun(<Server URL> , <Procedure Name> [, <Procedure Namespace> [, <Procedure Action> [, <Encoding Style>]]])

<Result>: Boolean

True if the communication was established with the server,
False otherwise. To find out the error details, use ErrorInfo associated with the errMessage constant.

<Server URL>: Character string (with quotes)

URL of server to contact. This parameter is supplied in the documentation of .Net server.

<Procedure Name>: Character string

Name of the procedure that will be run on the specified server. This parameter is supplied in the documentation of .Net server.
The procedure name is case sensitive (uppercase/lowercase characters).

<Procedure Namespace>: Optional character string

Namespace of procedure to run. This parameter is supplied in the documentation of .Net server.

<Procedure Action>: Optional character string

<Encoding Style>: Optional character string

Remarks

Parameters of procedure to run

The following structure is used by WINDEV or WEBDEV to pass parameters to a procedure run on a .Net XML Web server:

Variable	Type	Details

DotNet.NameSpace	Optional character string	"NameSpace" of parameter
DotNet.Name	Character string	Name of parameter
DotNet.XMLParam	Optional character string	Full description of parameter in XML format. The other parameters (Value, Name, Type, NameSpace and EncodingStyle) are ignored if this parameter is specified.
DotNet.EncodingStyle	Optional character string	Encoding style of parameter
DotNet.Type	Constant	Type of parameter
DotNet.Value	Any type	Value of parameter

This structure must be used for each parameter. For example:

DotNet.Value[1] = 94010
DotNet.Name[1] = "ZipCode"
DotNet.Type[1] = DotNetStringType

This structure is equivalent to:

DotNet.XMLParam[1] = <ZipCode xsi:type="xsd:string">94010</ZipCode>
