Consuming a WSDL and passing arrays into an object
Consuming a WSDL and passing arrays into an object
(OP)
HI,
I'm trying to get away from stringbuilder SOAP requests and converting to using a WSDL document. Really trying to learn :)
I'm using a WSDL located at: WSDL
I'm making a rate request for freight. I have 2 commodity loads as follow
commoditiy #1
.class = 60
.weight = ("560")
.description= ("Books")
commoditiy #2
.class = 65
.weight = ("230")
.ddescription= ("Used Books")
I'm supposed to use FullCommoditiesType in the rate request itself.

The commodities are passed into an object termed "Item" which is part of the raterequest.
I'm having issues with assignment of the commodities to and array and passing it into the myrequest.item
I see in the FullCommoditiesType the "commodity" as FullCommodityType but can't get my head wrapped around how to construct the commodities into and array and pass it into the FullCommoditiesType.
I've been stuck on this for a long time (hours and hours) and would appreciate any help at all. I've googled lots of how to consume a WSDL and watch video's etc.
Thanks in advance :)

RE: Consuming a WSDL and passing arrays into an object
Dim loaddata As New wsdl_estes.FullCommoditiesType
Dim comList As New List(Of wsdl_estes.FullCommodityType)
Dim com As wsdl_estes.FullCommodityType
'1St commodity
com = New wsdl_estes.FullCommodityType()
com.class = 60
com.description = ("Used Books")
com.weight = ("1680")
com.pieces = ("1")
com.pieceType = PackagingType.SK
com.dimensions = New wsdl_estes.DimensionsType()
com.dimensions.length = ("42")
com.dimensions.width = ("42")
com.dimensions.height = ("36")
comList.Add(com)
loaddata.commodity = comList.ToArray()
myrequest.Item = loaddata
Thanks to Jum for the resolution
