Remarks
The operation element of the .xsf file contains information about the Web service, including the name of the Web method, the method used for retrieving and submitting data, and its Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
Important
This member can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.
Examples
In the following example, the Operation property of the WebServiceAdapterObject object is used to retrieve the properties of the operation element in the .xsf file. The serviceUrl of the WebServiceAdapter is updated, and then the Query method of the WebServiceAdapter is invoked:
const string newServiceUrl = "NewOperationName";
// Get the Main Data Source WebServiceAdapter object
WebServiceAdapter2 webServiceAdapter = thisXDocument.DataAdapters[0] as WebServiceAdapter2;
if (webServiceAdapter == null)
{
thisXDocument.UI.Alert("A secondary WebServiceAdapter does not exist.");
return;
}
// Load the xsf:input element into an XML DOM
IXMLDOMDocument2 tempDom = thisXDocument.CreateDOM() as IXMLDOMDocument2;
if (tempDom == null)
{
thisXDocument.UI.Alert("Could not create a temporary DOM.");
return;
}
tempDom.validateOnParse = false;
tempDom.preserveWhiteSpace = false;
tempDom.loadXML(webServiceAdapter.Operation);
// All available properties on the operation element: name, soapAction, serviceUrl
IXMLDOMNode nameAttribute =
tempDom.documentElement.attributes.getNamedItem("name");
IXMLDOMNode soapActionAttribute =
tempDom.documentElement.attributes.getNamedItem("soapAction");
IXMLDOMNode serviceUrlAttribute =
tempDom.documentElement.attributes.getNamedItem("serviceUrl");
// Show the serviceUrl attribute value of the xsf:operation element before the change
thisXDocument.UI.Alert(serviceUrlAttribute.text);
// Change the serviceUrl
serviceUrlAttribute.text = newServiceUrl;
// Show the serviceUrl after the change
thisXDocument.UI.Alert(serviceUrlAttribute.text);
// Save the changes from the tempDom back to the Operation property
webServiceAdapter.Operation = tempDom.xml;
// Run a query with the changed serviceUrl
webServiceAdapter.Query();
