Hopefully monday. I created the templates to do it already and made my own task generator. Works great..

Looking forward! . Thanks for putting the time into this.

Frans, are you planning on including these in your release or do you want to make this a 3rd party addon? I know you mention earlier you were going to include it once vs went RTM and then make the docs etc on how to do it. Just curious if thats the still the case?

Either way, i can email you what i have for my templates if you wish.

I've to check what's necessary to get it working. If it's a lot of hassle, I might decide to go for an add-on. If it's a thing which can be enabled easily, it's a no-brainer to add it to the main release. What I want to avoid at the moment is to change a lot in the released code, but what I tried out earlier using your info, it's a couple of templates and it works

There's a problem.

Hierarchical entities returned from a webmethod, with polymorphism.

Say I have the webmethod: [WebMethod()] public CustomerEntity GetCustomer(string customerID) { ... }

now, what if I return a FemaleCustomerEntity (subtype of CustomerEntity) ? -> the client creates a CustomerEntity, because that's what the method's return type is, which means that there are just the customer fields, while the xml contains the FemaleCustomerEntity fields.

I don't have a clue how to solve this though, apparently, MS didn't think through this well enough, as is often the case when it comes to something related to Xml

I think i found a way to solve this. This is untested cuase my project doesnt use inheritance at the moment, but i believe this cna be solved by 2 methods.

Either include the

 [XmlInclude(typeof(FemaleCustomerEntity))] 

attribute above the webmethod OR above the base class

This works on types that the XmlSerializer serializes, but i think it should work on IXmlSerializable as well.

Thanks for the update! I'll check it out.

I'm just starting a Webservice application now. Was this released as a feature, or available as a template? Is there a way someone can email me this if it's a template?

Thanks!

Is this going to be incorporated into the standard package, if not could it be added to the 3rd party downloads?

in v2.0 it's included. Till then it could be a 3rd party add on, but I don't have the archive yet.

Great! Thanks mate!

They're online available now: in the customer area -> third party section.

I have generated the BL successfully by using the Web Service generator. I am not quite sure how to use the wsdl.exe tool to generate the proxy. Can anyone please describe (or point me to some external resources) what I have to do next?

Thanks

first page of this thread, 6th post down.

How do I use these templates? I've searched through the manual, but cannot seem to find how I should run these from LLBLGen Pro.

Where do I copy them to? How do I run them? Can I integrate these with my regular DAL generation templates, supplied with LLBLGen?

I've just copied the files to the LLBLGen Pro root (including folders) but I immediatly get an xml error when opening the "Generate..." dialog.

I've downloaded the Template Designer, and I probably should use it. Add the given templates into the normal template project or something.

Any suggestions here?

Extract zip file to your llblgen folder. You can then select the task performer from the generation menu...
