Passing A Web Service An Unknown Number Of Parameters?
Apr 28, 2010
I'm relatively new to utilizing web services. I'm trying to create one that will be accepting data from a ASP.Net form whose input controls are created dynamically at runtime and I don't how many control values will be getting passed. I'm thinking I'll be using jQuery's serialize() on the form to get the data, but what do I have the web service accept for a parameter? I thought maybe I could use serializeArray(), but still I don't know what type of variable to accept for the JavaScript array.
Finally, I was thinking that I might need to create a simple data transfer object with the data before sending it along to the web service. I just didn't wanna go through with the DTO route if there was a much simpler way or an established best practice that I should follow. Thanks in advance for any direction you can provide and let me know I wasn't clear enough,

I have a simple Web Service method defined as:
[WebMethod]
[ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)]
public string MyWebMethod(string foo, string bar)
{
// DataContractJsonSerializer to deserialize foo and bar to
// their respective FooClass and BarClass objects.
return "{"Message":"Everything is a-ok!"}";
}
I'll call it from the client via:
var myParams = { "foo":{"name":"Bob Smith", "age":50},"bar":{"color":"blue","size":"large","quantity":2} };
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'https://mydomain.com/WebServices/TestSvc.asmx/MyWebMethod',
data: JSON.stringify(myParams),
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
dataType: 'json',
success: function (response, status) {
alert('Yay!');
},
error: function (xhr, err) {
alert('Boo-urns!');
}
});
However, this yields the following error (a breakpoint on the first line in MyWebMethod() is never hit):
{"Message":"No parameterless
constructor defined for type of
u0027System.Stringu0027.","StackTrace":"

I'd like to pass in two string parameters and use DataContractJsonSerializer to write new Foo and Bar objects. Am I missing something?

js:
[code]....
I put a break point inside MyWebMethod. When I invoke this call on the page, the break point never gets hit. It works fine when I remove all parameters from MyWebMethod's signature and pass in '{}' from JS as parameters. Once I try to pass in a string parameter, it stops working.

I am trying to allow users to grab their stored procs and call certain ones from within code. I can get the stored procedures and then fill a dropdown with them, but what I cannot find at this point is how to get the parameters that each stored procedure needs. I would like, once an SP is chosen from the dropdown to make a call to the db with that sp name and grab its paramter list so I can report what needs to be sent in to the user.

One of the reports I am creating has dynamic number of columns - a datatable gets returned from the stored procedure, the number of columns depend on the number of items defined in the database (one column for each item, other than some fixed columns). Is it possible for me to use RDLC report to generate a report in this case? All the calculations are already done int he report, I am looking at RDLC only for the sake of export to excel/pdf and repeating header/footer.

I'm pretty new at ASP .NET but not to ASP. I've got a form I need to create where I don't know how many entries will be added. It has the following format:
"Age" "Duration" "Period of Duration" "etc..."
Last30Days
1-5 Months ago
6-11 Months ago
Age
Age
Age
etc.
So the Age column always has the first 3 options and then an unknown number of Age values that can be inserted. I've created a table that has the first four fields (Last30days, 1-5months, 6-11months, age) and I was thinking I could just order by those 4 columns for display. The problem I have is I'm not sure on how to proceed. Does anyone have any good ideas on how to handle this situation? Ideally data entry people could use the same form for both entering and displaying the data.

In this answer to my question of how to insert data into SQL Server he mentioned passing parameters instead of string concatenation like I currently have.
Is this really necessary for security? If so, what exactly is passing parameters? When i google it I get a lot about stored procedures. Is that what I want, I do not know about stored procedures....yet.
EDIT:
Ok, here is what I got. It seems to update the database correctly and eventually I will change the hard coded ints to inputs from a label. confirm if how I did this is not vulnerable to any sql injection or hacks.

I have a page with a lot of pictures on it. I want the user to be able to click on the picture and either bring up a popup type of window passing it the Param name and value , or to have the picture be replaced with this object.
<object id="ADR2" type="application/x-Autodesk-DWF"
width="250" height="250"> <param name="dwffilename"
value="path" /> </object>
I have found a number of places describing how to bring up a popup window, but not on how to pass it the values.

I have a custom ExpressionBuilder in whixh I'm trying to add a list of optional parameters. My method would be declared as follows:
public static string GetResource(string expression, params object[] parameters) { }
The way I'm calling this method from an ASP.NET page is this at the moment:
<ext:Button ID="btnEdit" runat="server" Text="<%$ AppResources : edit_text %>">
Does anyone know how to perform this method call, but using optional parameters?

I am creating a DataSet to attach to a report (*.rdlc). In the DataSet is a TableAdapter that has the GetData(@start, @end) function. Can someone please explain how I get values in to @start and @end? I have searched and seen that it might have something to do with overriding the Fill function in the DataSet code behind file. Please let me know.

I have used a sql data source to connect to ORACLE.
Select command is working fine, as soon as I try to provide a parameter, it doesn;t work.
Getting following error " ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number"
Tried searching for error message -- but It says the parameters name has to be less then 32 characters, which is what I have.

I have a dynamic created drop down list - and I set the event of it to be like this:
ddlAnswer.ID = "ddlistAnswer" + QuestionID;
ddlAnswer.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(ddlAnswer_SelectedIndexChanged);
Please note that drop down list is dynamic, and in selectedIndexChanged, I would like to pass the "QuestionID" to that selectedindexchanged to work on my logic. Is there a way to pass it to that method as command argument or something?
Code:
protected void ddlAnswer_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//wanting that question id here

I'm trying to do a form submit to my controller through jQuery Ajax. The following code works for the most part, however, the ThreadId parameter does not get passed. If I call the controller directly without using jQuery, it gets passed, but when using jquery, I don't see the ThreadId after form.serialize(). WHat would be the easiest way to pass parameters (like ThreadId) to jQuery form post?

I am trying to pass the parameters dynamically thru Sqldatasource and get the results in grid view. Based on the dropdown list selection it has to show the results in grid view. When I hard code its giving correct results but when passing thru parameters i'm unable to get the results in grid view.
Output shud be something like this:
Select the value: 123
124
125.
Lets say user selects '123', the query it runs in sqldatasource is Select col1,col2,col3 from table1 where col1 LIKE '123%'
results will be 12301,12302,12303 with other columns in grid view.
