VS 2010 - Stub For A Web Service That Will Be Returning XML
Jun 23, 2011
I'm going to be calling a webservice that will return me data in xml format. Since the web service is not ready yet, I want to test locally by calling a function that returns the xml. So if I have a sample xml file on my hard-drive, how do I just open it and read it and create an xml string from it? I don't care at this point about parsing anything out; I will do that in the caller and have that written. I just want all the xml back.
I want to write a unit tetsing code for this function
[Code]....
I'd like to cretae a stub for image As System.Drawing.Image, set expectation as image.Width=250, image.Height=200. Can anyone help me on how to create the image stub in Rhino Mocks?[Code]....
I have a problem with getting jquery to retrieve results from a WCF service. I am hosting the WCF service within IIS and when I attach the debugger to this process I can see that the code is processed successfully. However, when it hits the callback within jquery there is no data??
I have set up a trace on the wcf service and there are no errors. It just seems as though the data is lost after the wcf service method completes.
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)] public class EcopsService : IEcopsServiceContract { #region IEcopsServiceContract Members public string Echo(string echoThis) { return string.Format("You sent this '{0}'.", echoThis); } #endregion }
I have a form in vb 2010 with multiple image buttons displaying images. My problem is that when I click on a button the page automatically returns to the top of the page(the image is displayed). The me.button.focus() code causes the page to load on top of the displayed image. Is there a way to keep the focus on the button while the image is being diplayed at the same time.
I am developing an application with WCF services. The basic functionaloty of a screen is to provide an entry screen to add particular entity. Once save even fired It will save the data to the database and call the bind method to bind into the grid by refreshing the latest data.
When I am running the site from my source (Visual Studio) , it works perfectly. When the client calls method to fetch the data the WCF service, it returns latest (added) data. But the issue comes in the server when it works with IIS. I deployed the code in the server, once the data added I am getting the old data only. But after two refresh I am getting the latest data.
what required to be done to get the latest record.
I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. I am trying to create web service that will return ajaxified results. Specifically, I want to write a web service that will fetch email through a secure connection. However, rather then have the web service return every single email, I just want to fetch maybe 5 emails at a time. I've always used Ajax as a client helper technology and not sure how to go about implementing this on a server side, or if its even possible.
I developed a web service in VS2010 on my local machine, wrote a consumer of it also locally, and that all works.
I copied the dll and the asmx file to our server, and I am getting an error when I try to invoke it from a browser (also still on the server machine) to make sure it correctly exposes its web methods, but it is not, it is saying "Could not create type 'Service'". That error comes from this line:
Line 1: <%@ WebService Language="C#" CodeBehind="~/App_Code/WarrantyDuplicate.cs" Class="Service" %> There other web services in the same folder on the server that all work fine so I don't believe it's an IIS setup thing.
This is my first web service in C# and when I created it in VS I did think it odd that the code behind file went into App_Code (as you can see from the line in the asmx file) and is just named dot-cs rather than asmx-dot-cs. But since it worked fine locally, I wasn't sure that mattered.
I am trying to deploy a wcf service. I have created a simple service, basically I have created a new wcf service and tried to deploy it however I get this error
The type 'WCF_Application.Service1', provided as the Service attribute value in the ServiceHost directive, or provided in the configuration element system.serviceModel/serviceHostingEnvironment/serviceActivations could not be found.
I am trying to deploy my service to a subdomain like https://services.mydomain.com/business
Ok so I am trying to setup a WCF web service. I thought I had my .svc and webConfig ready to go, but when I hit this service all I get is a blank page.
I'm using a web service and I want to return a list to my client. I am nearly newby at web services and I can't return a List<String> object to my client. But when i call the method it says "Unable to cast object of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.String]' to type 'System.String[]'" What should I do?
I have an ASP.NET web service which returns an XMLDocument. The web service is called from a Firefox extension using XMLHttpRequest.
var serviceRequest = new XMLHttpRequest(); serviecRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8");
I consume the result using responseXML. So far so good. But when I iterate through the XML I retrieve nodeValue - nodeValue is always null. When I check the nodeType the nodeType is type 1 (Node.ELEMENT_NODE == 1).
Node.NodeValue states all nodes of type Element will return null.
In my webservice I have created a string with the XML i.e. xml="Hank"
I then create the XmlDocument XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXML(string);
I know I can specify the nodetype using using CreateNode. But when I am just building the xml by appending string values is there a way to change the nodeType to Text so Node.nodeValue will be "content of the text node".
I've been reading quite a few tutorials on web services and xml files and one thing isn't quite clear to me. If I want to create an XML file on the fly the tutorials are pretty straight forward but, I want to grab an existing XML file from the web server and return the whole thing. Do I need to read the XML file and send each individual node or is there a way to send the file all at once? The tutorials imply that the whole file could be a node but I'm not clear on what that entails or if it would work. Also do you have a link to an example?
I Need by service contract to return the xml/json result depending on the request type. function which will convert my result set (i am using linq to sql) so that i do not need to create the xml format for the result set by iterating through the table row many times.What is the suitable way to do that.
I need a kind of short cut method which will convert the table data to xml result.Had i been using asp.net mvc i would have been able to generate the xml data by overriding the the ExecuteResult method in the ActionResult and giving Conetnt-Type = "text/xml" as OP.But since i am using Wcf i don't have the controller context(as controller context is the parameter that needs to be passed to Execute Result).
My present code for converting the table data to the xml format is below.
public XDocument UsersLists(string authToken) { bool IsAuthenticated = Authenticate(authToken); XDocument xDoc = new XDocument(); XElement root = new XElement("Users");
[Code]....
I need to eliminate this way of generating xml for each table records.
I am having a webmethod that returns some data.I'm using jquery to call that function with its Content type specified as XML.The problem is that it is working on local machine but not on server.The code i'm using is:
var arrInputs = pnl.getElementsByTagName("input"); str = arrInputs[0].value; $.ajax({[code]....
Ajaxfinish is defined afterwards and it works fine on local.Is there some more settings i need to do to make it executable
We have a web project that contain its business methods in a class library project called "Bll.dll" some methods of Bll.dll return List<> ... from a source - that i don't remember now - told that returning Collection<> is better than returning List<> Is it a valid ? Note that i don't make any process on values returned from BLL methods .. just view it in a web page
I am new to the whole ajax/jquery/web service scene. I am trying to create a web service to pass back data for a jquery post and currently have two errors. It appears there are examples the web but must in c and looking for something in vb. Below is my web service. See in bold the error descriptions and in red the items visual studio is highlighting.

Here is the article I am currently following for example: How To Create A JSON Web Service In ASP.NET.
I've created a web service using VS 2010 and .Net 3.5, deployed on Win7. No hiccups regarding performance or functionality. However, after adding performance counters I realized that the web service is restarted every few thousand calls (which happens after a few seconds).
The application pool has already been changed to not use recycling but this behavior persists.
I've only worked with web services a little bit. I am working on a project now using another developer's code as a template. It is code for a single sign on (SSO).
Also let me say, I have been coding in VB6/VB.NET for the past six years and am learning C# (that is what the other developer's code is written in).
setAppCredentials() is the beginning of a lot of sub-calls and I have gotten that all to work when I was running the service from within its own Visual Studio project.
Where I am having the problem is setting credentialHeader.Username and credentialHeader.Password. credentialHeader is nothing when I call validateCredentials().
I didn't see how I had these exposed to me in order to set them. So the developer said Create a client that consumes that service and set the values there and call your method.. But I still don't see how it's exposed to my consumer. I have this line of code in the consumer
Code : Dim myWebService As New localhost.xxxMemberService
(Back to VB!,) but I still don't see credentialHeader exposed.
The only other thing I see in the webservice code that might be relevant is this:
I wrote a web service for a co-worker. The web service is in VB.NET, and it works fine for me. When I write a consumer and walk-through it, it returns me the correct data, and when I run the URL in a browser, the methods are exposed to me.
My co-worker wants to call this web service using JSON. He is debugging it in Firefox with Firebug. He gets a pop-up entitled "Authentication Required" and it says Enter username and password for <the URL> of the website (under which the folder of my webservice has been defined as an application in IIS), and there's a textbox for an id and password. Firebug says 401 unauthorized.
I am developer, not a SA, so I don't understand a lot of the hits I am getting when I google this error. I did change one thing in IIS, though. We have another web app on another server where we've employed the exact same model, and that web service works. So I am trying to compare the two. I changed Authentication so that Anonymous Authentication was Enabled and the others were Disabled. I was hopeful this would work, especially because Basic Authentication and Windows Authentication's Response Type were HTTP 401 Challenge, but that did not work, unless I need to restart something (do I?).
I have a number of .Net web sites built in VS2010 using Framework 4.0that reference a web service to send emails.
My most recent site I created as a web application as opposed to a web site. In the Solution Explorer you can add a 'Service Reference' and, if you click the Advanced button you can then add a reference to a web service.
I did that and now the (web application) site won't build - it says it cannot load the Ajax dll. If I remove the reference to the web service, the site builds okay - if I add the reference back in, the site will not build.
Do I need to abandon the idea of using a 'Web Application' and turn it into a 'Web Site'?
