I have number of files stored in a folder.
I want to write a wcf service to ruturn a list of filenames based on the text typed in a text box.
The structure of the method i need is something like this :
[Code]....
The requirments is to return only the filenames that starts with the typed text. Only the file name part is required not the full path.
I have a web service that is declared like this.
[Code]....
Function inside the service simply returns string separated by some delimitor. This string is then used by JS function to assign to a jQuery datatable. Is there a maximum limit on size of this string? I have about 2000 rows with 6 columns each. I get an error (failed handle) when I return them all. But if I do only top 500, it works fine.Is there any size limitation?

I am coding a classic .asmx web service. The method get data (as a string) from a server, then assign data to an object, then return that object. But I want to cache that object to a XML file for other request. It's because the data from server is not frequently change. Thus, after some minutes, I have to refresh the XML file. When I refresh XML file, I could write object to XML first, then return that object, but that approach maybe slowly.
How can I return the object for client first, then write this to XML file?
I have been given access to a web service that I can use to pull valuable data for my company. The issue I am having is I don't know where to begin writing out the returned values. I am using an asp.net VB web file to connect to the web service and call the wanted procedures. I have added the web service as an web reference in my project, other than that I am stuck. Here is what I have so far;

View 2 RepliesI want to do is to get the record number in my database of the first record that matches my search. Its to skip to a random point in the database based on user input.
[Code]....
It returns the number of records that preceed the first one to match the string. I have tried to call this procedure from MVC and it always returns -1, so I have a fundamental problem there. I have also tried ot figure out how to just duplicate the code in MVC and I also cannot seem to get anywhere on that front.
Does anyone know a simple elegant solution to either embed this code diretly into MVC or to call my stored procedure from MVC and get the correct integer response back, instead of -1? I am engaged in relearning development after many years, so I am getting stuck on the basics.
I have a web service that originally returned a string containing text formatted as XML. I was contacted by the programmer who is going to be consuming the web service, and he asked if I could make it "just XML" and not a string. I converted the web service so that it returns an XMLDocument object, and it seems to be returning data properly. I would just like to erify, however, that the XMLDocument object is what the other programmer was referring to when he said "just XML," and that the XMLDocument can be universally consumed by any programmer, regardless of his or her programming environment.

Just ramping up on JSON and JQuery and returning data to a ASP.NET web page from a web service using Ajax. The JQuery part is pretty straight-forward. However, when trying to return JSON formatted data instead of XML from a 2.0 web service, I'm stuck. The web service does have the System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService attribute, so I can hit it via JavaScript; however, the web service always...always...returns data in XML format, no matter if I explicitly say I want JSON as the datatype in my JQuery code. So I don't know if this is an issue with the web service or the JQuery code. I posted this here, but realize that the category could be incorrect depending on where the issue is. Is there no way to return JSON data from a 2.0 web service? It's a production web service, so I can't change the code unfortunately.

View 1 RepliesI have a webservice - called MyCompany.WebService1
I reference this using a web reference in my ASP.net web application.
Theres a method called "GetDeal" in this web service, that returns a "Deal" Object.
The deal object currently looks (for example) like this:
[code]....
This class is in a different assembly: MyCompany.Model
The web service references this assembly.
In my web app, I can call the GetDeal method. This returns Service1.Deal (service1 is just the name of the web reference)
I can access both properties above. I have now changed the Deal class, and added a couple more properties.
However, I can't see these new properties in my web application. I've updated the web service in the web application. I rebuilt the web service several times, tried removing the MyCompany.Model reference and re-addding it etc...
I can't figure out what has changed... This was working - I have changed the model before, and it's updated the reference correctly...
I have a webmethod that has three parameters:
public AuthenticationResult Authenticate(Enum type, string userName, string password) But the problem I had is that if a null/invalid enum is entered for the type variable it throws an error message.
So the obvious solution is to use a string/int instead but I am cannot do this as current users already use the existing webmethod.
So i was thinking:
public AuthenticationResult Authenticate(object type, string userName, string password) and handling the casting myself but the problem I had with this is that now my users do not have access to the Enum type.
So my question is can I publish the enum type without having it as a parameter/return value? Allow the client to access the Enum so they can pass it into the method. Would using a method that returned a type that was my enum work? Or is there a way to catch this custom error: (I dont think so as it appears to be on the client end when converting Enum to xml). The error is: (System.InvalidOperationException: There was an error generating the XML document. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: Instance validation error: '45465' is not a valid value for Enum.)
I have a requirement to build a simple ASP.NET web page which sends some parameters to a web service, and then displays the string which was returned. I'm a complete .NET newby and the only examples I can find seem really really complex. I just need something mega simple, but which an handle parameters being sent to the web service. Can anyone point me in the direction of a simple bit of C# which will do this with no frills or fuss?

How do you secure a WCF web service when you are using the traditional "connection string in the web.config"?
I have added a WCF service to an application which uses a JQuery post and returns JSON. The request happens on the client side. The purpose of this service is to return search information while the person is typing text into a textbox.
It works well, but there is a problem because the application will be used by a number of people and I am maintaining a role based security within the applications MS SQL database. The connection string to the database is in the web.config file.
In order to run the JQuery call to the web service the user must have at least read access directly to the database. I want to allow the application to control the access, but removing all security to the WCF service opens the application up for external access by unauthorized users.
In our project WCF service is acting as our BLL.
i had scenario where i had to fill list of object class without knowing its type see code:

I'm having my first experience with Web Services with .Net. I received from a client an integration manual to consume a web service they have.
In this manual I have the following information:
Request Interface: [URL]
Using SOAP request would return a XML Document with the response.
WSDL: [URL]
Request XML:
[Code]....
There's also XSD for the response XML.
Well, I'm having a little trouble trying to figure out how to consume this web service.
I found a topic here pointing to a MSDN article. There it says that I would have to add a Web Reference for this web service, but in my case this web service is external. Do I really have to add this reference to consume the web service? If yes how do I do that?
Next I have to create the XML Document that will be sent with the SOAP request. But here's a question. Searching on the internet I found mainly two types of request XML. I don't know wich one I should use.
The first one would be:
[Code]....
The second one is a XML file with soap:Body, soap:Header, soap:Envelope, etc.
Wich one should I create with my application in order to consume the web service? If it's the second one, how would look the XML for the data of the first XML?
And finally, how do I send the Soap request? As I said above, I found a MSDN article but it assumes I'm adding a web reference to the web service on my project and I belive that in my case I won't add this reference. So, how do I consume this web service?
I'm kind of lost here and really really soon I will have to estimate how long will take to develop the web service consume code.
I have the following code:
public void BeginConvert(object data)
{
ConverterData cObject = (ConverterData)data;
string argument = string.Format("-i "{0}" -b {1} "{2}"", cObject.Source, compression, cObject.Destiny);
Process converterProcess = new Process();
converterProcess.StartInfo.FileName = ffPath;
converterProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = argument;
converterProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
converterProcess.Start();
converterProcess.WaitForExit();
}
I use it in a webservice, i start it in a new thread and it return exit code 1 (error, i'm trying to do a video convertion with ffmpeg library), i impersonate ASP.NET to use a local account with permissions to read and write files, when i run it in my machine running or debugging it works but know thta the web service is running in IIS doest'n.
