Consuming Web Services In .NET?
Feb 19, 2010
I am testing web services in .NET for the first time. I am almost there, but I can't seem to consume the web service. I know this post is similar to about 5-6 other posts on this site, but I have reviewed them, and still can't get the syntax correct.So far, I have:Create a simple web service that creates a directoryWorked in development environment, but took some trouble shooting to get to work on live server I can pull up the "automagically" generated .NET we service page.Added web service reference - can now see the reference in my solution explorer and in intellisense.

I have two ASMX web services consumed from javascript. The first service performs a long operation and updates a database table on its progress. The second service polls that same database table in order to report the progress to the end user via a progress bar.
My problem is that the long process seems to be blocking the polling service. When I log the activity of the javascript, it seems to be requesting the long service correctly, and then starts to request the polling service once a second asynchronously (note: the long process is asynch as well). Both request types either use setInterval or setTimeout which shouldn't halt the browser. Yet when I look at the activity of the javascript, none of the responses from the polling requests return until the long process completes. So it seems the long process is blocking the polling requests until it's done.

We have a small VB.net application that basically pulls information from our dBase and then exports this information to an .xls file. From this .xls file, in house agents then manually update a third party listing service (which maintains our current inventory) with the information contained within. The information is very basic, consisting of, for ease of discussion, a 'Part Number', a 'Description' and a 'Quantity On Hand.'
Normally we update this information once a week, but, a newly revised contract with this listing service now requires a daily update to maintain our 'platinum' vendor status.The problem is that it can take quite some time to manually update this information. an automated process is in dire need. And I have finished most of the ground-work and coding - up to a point. Hence the question, and hence where I get stuck.The listing service has provided us with the following WSDL's: One for Increasing our Inventory, one for Decreasing our inventory, one for Adding inventory and one for Removing Inventory.
Up to this point, I have re-programmed a Stored Procedure that was generating the exported information. this SP now does some internal math to figure out if a transaction result occurring on 'yesterday' was an 'Increase', a 'Decrease', an 'Add' or a 'Remove.' These results are then added to a result table under a newly created column named 'SERVICE.' This new information is then pulled from the dBase with vb.net and imported into a Data Table for analysis.
With this Data Table, I can now loop through each row, looking in the column 'SERVICE' and depending on the information contained in that cell, call the appropriate web service.
[Code]...
I realize that this has become quite long winded, mostly because on any given day I have 25 FF tabs open and none of them agreeing with each other. To add another wrinkle; the WSDL's in question use a lot of complex types within complex types with, you guessed it, other complex types entwined.

How do I consume my WordPress blog's RSS feed to display my latest blog posts on my homepage? I ran into the following piece of code to do this:
Function GetRSSFeed(strURL as String) as DataTable
'Get the XML data
Dim reader as XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(strURL)
[Code]....
But it errors out at this line: 'ds.ReadXml(reader)' with the following error:
A column named 'comments' already belongs to this DataTable.
Perhaps it doesn't work since this code is from 2003? Does anyone have a working code sample?

We have a web app that contains web methods. I want to invoke one of those methods from a console app. I am new at this but I wrote a console app, added a service reference and tried to code invoking it. If my web method is called "Transmit", I expected to see Transmit in the namespace I specified but instead I see "TransmitRequest", "TranmsitRequestBody", "TransmitResponse" and "TransmitResponseBody".What are these things?Have I done something wrong?How do I invoke the web method in the web app from the console app?

I have a WCF Service (with installer) that I have built and installed in Windows Services. Opened up Admin Tools, Services, and started the service without a problem. So now I'm beginning a new project (a simple Windows forms app). I want to consume my new WCF, but have no idea how. I can't seem to add a reference / add a service reference to it.

I have an interesting issue that a client reported It turns out that the desktop application they are using is changing the times returned by the web service to their local time so it looks like the data is off. We're in UTC-5 while they're in UTC-8 so 8:00 AM is returned to the GUI as 5:00 AM which is causing confusion. I've done this riddiculousness to get around it for now:
Code:
Dim intOffset As Integer = TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.GetUtcOffset(DateTime.Now).Hours
'Substract 1 if we're in daylight savings mode

We have a VB6 application that consumes Java webservices with soap.That works fine on XP and Win7. The login to the webservice times out.Under xp the client try to reconnect 2 times (is one call to the webservices) and then ask for new login data from user. With win7 that dont be OK.If the login is timed out, the client try to reconnect 9 times with one call. The code is the same. I trace this with wireshark.

I have a windows form application and also a exe application that both uses the same dll whic I place in the bin directory The dll is using crystal report and thus I need to reference com objects and other .net drivers. My question is following: Where should I put these references, in the class library (dll) or in the windows form / exe applications. If I put them in the dll, will they automatically be loaded when call the dll (entry point) or do I need to something else (create in installer etc)

I attempt to serialize an object, and it throws an exception as shown below. I assume it attempts to serialize also the UserControl that subsribes to an event of the class I try to serialize. This is not desired. So how do I avoid serializing events?
SerializationException occured:Type 'System.Windows.Forms.UserControl' in Assembly'System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' is not marked as serializable.

Wrote a 'webservice' with Netbeans wizard, runs on glassfish. I added a reference using the wsdl to my .NET client, VB if it makes any difference.The issue is a SoapHeaderException.
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHeaderException: com/mysql/jdbc/Connection
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(
SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream,
Boolean asyncCall)
[code]....
I've tried writing the string in a soap envelope, but still receive the same message. So passing a string is kaputt, as it should be; why would the WS know to parse a string, and simply instantiating and calling the method from the object as if it were local isn't working the way I think it does.

I am implementing a VB.NET desktop application which consumes a web service.
The web service implemented in Java and I currently using Tomcat on my localhost to host the web service.
The web service requires secure communication with the client and so I have followed instructions that outlined how to use Java's keytool.exe to create two .jks keystores (one for the client and one for the server) and then create two .cer certificates (one for the client and one for the server)
I have placed the keystores and certificates generate into the directory where the web service is expecting them (according to the instructions)
I have installed the certificates into TrustedPeople and have attempted to use the certificate by setting the ClientCredentials.ClientCertificates property like this:
myServiceProxy.ClientCredentials.ClientCertificate.SetCertificate(storeLocation.CurrentUser, StoreName.TrustedPeople, X509FindType.FindByIssuerName, "name")
I keep getting the following error message when I try to call any method:
An error was discovered processing the <wsse:Security> header
My problem is that I don't know how to use this in the VB.NET client application that is consuming the web service. I could be doing this completely wrong.

I am creating an XML web service that passes an array of custom types. In my consuming code I am referencing the code as a web reference which I have given the namespace MYWS. Now in code I am trying to assign the results of my web service call to an array of my type like so..[code]When I do this the complier complains, saying: "Value of 1 dimensional array of my.namespace.MyClass cannot be converted to 1 dimensional array of my. namespace. MYWS.MyClass because my.namespace.MYSW.MyClass is not derived from my.namespace.MyClass"Now I understand the message, the thing is they are the same class. The class is declared in my calling code by the web service references a dll from that project. How do I tell the compiler that these are the same type?

Upon attempting to invoke the method of the mainframe web service using the proxy class, I encountered an exception saying "Conversion from SOAP failed" coming from a line of code in the generated proxy class.

My wife wants me to create a cookbook application for her. I am going to use this as a learning experience (Otherwise, I would just buy her one).
The main requirements are that she can store her recipes thier ingredients and the steps involved in this SQL server driven program. She also wants to be able to view and print any recipe she chooses.
My question is how do I display the recipe in its complete form? I do not know how to use crystal reports, and automating Word is too time/resource consuming. So what are my options in VB 2008?

At the moment we're are considering writing a number of .Net web services to export/import data between sites. There are various different types of data involved, relating to multiple database tables. I could write various web services to receive the data being sent, for example
ImportSomeRecord(field1, field2, field3)
ImportSomeRecord2(field1, field2)
ImportSomeRecord3(field1, field2, field3, field4, field5)
and so on...
There could be about 40 of these services, and it's also possible that the fields may change i.e. new fields may be added. The client would be a VB6 application that would call the remote web service, and let that web service update the remote database. The web services will be written in VB.Net 2008.
Would it be advisable to replace all these web services with a single generic service e.g. ImportRecords(recordtype, blobofdata). I think this can be done in theory by just passing an XML string as the blob of data and letting the web service unravel this depending on the record type, but is there actually any advantage to this, and is it good practice to do so? I've read somewhere that passing XML chunks in this way, as a single parameter, isn't recommended, and I can see this also seems to be somewhat contrary to standard web service usage in that in effect I'm bypassing the web service definition.
