Passing back a class in SOAP

[burak]

Hello,

I fixed the problem I was having before

http://www.computerhelp.forum/t73531.html

by including the .wsdl as a web reference in my client.

I changed the code to return a class insteadof a decimal, but I get soap errors on client when I try to access the values in the object. I am also having problems passing back a string. Decimal works fine.

Here is my code

-------------------

Imports System.Web.Services

Public Class temp_values
Public temp As Decimal
Public fUnit As String
End Class

<WebService(Namespace:="http://tempuri.org/")> _
Public Class CTemp
Inherits System.Web.Services.WebService

<WebMethod()> Public Function GetTemp(ByVal Temperature As Decimal, _
ByVal FromUnits As String ) As temp_values

Dim tVal As temp_values
tVal.fUnit = FromUnits

Select Case FromUnits.ToUpper.Chars(0)
Case "F" Fahrenheit
tVal.temp = ((Temperature - 32) * 5) / 9
Return tVal
Case "C" Celsius
tVal.temp = ((Temperature - 32) * 5) / 9
Return tVal
End Select
End Select

End Function

End Class

The following page talks about returning a dataset

Do you know how to pass back user defined classes?

Thanks,

Have you refreshed the web reference on the client? If not that means the client is still expecting a decimal and not the string / user defined class.

Yes, I refreshed the web reference on the client.

Nevermind, I fixed it.
