C# SOAP Client

halem — Wed, 15 Nov 2017 13:30:37 GMT

Hello,

I am using Visual Studio and C# to create a SOAP client for Integrity 10.2 web services.

Based on some questions here, I was able to make this working code: (actually fails due to a bug with jboss, but completes the request)

            AttachmentRequest arg0 = new AttachmentRequest();
            arg0.AttachmentName = "distributionowners.txt";
            arg0.FieldName = "Attachments";
            arg0.ItemId = "1234";
            arg0.Username = "username";
            arg0.Password = "password";
            fetchAttachments fa = new fetchAttachments();
            fa.arg0 = arg0;
            fetchAttachmentsResponse response = proxyClient.fetchAttachments(fa);

I just want to do getItem and createItem requests, but the format for getItem in the API seems different. The closest I was able to get was this:

            Console.WriteLine(proxyClient.Endpoint.Address.Uri);
            getItemRequest req = new getItemRequest();
            req.getItem.arg0.Username = "username";                  //null reference
            req.getItem.arg0.Password = "password";
            req.getItem.arg0.InputField = inputfields;
            req.getItem.arg0.ItemId = "1234";
            getItem gi = new getItem();
            gi.arg0 = req.getItem.arg0;
            getItemResponse responsegi = proxyClient.getItem(gi);

I'm not able to set the arg0 properties and it fails. How should I be doing this?

I got it to work using the following code:

using integrity;

//onclick event for vsta form button
public void CTRL12_5_Clicked(object sender, ClickedEventArgs e)
        {
            # region createhttpbinding
            BasicHttpBinding basicHttpbinding = new BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.None);
            basicHttpbinding.Name = "BasicHttpBinding_Integrity";
            basicHttpbinding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.None;
            basicHttpbinding.Security.Message.ClientCredentialType = BasicHttpMessageCredentialType.UserName;

            EndpointAddress endpointAddress = new EndpointAddress("http://servername:7001/webservices/10/2/Integrity/");
            Integrity_10_2Client proxyClient = new Integrity_10_2Client(basicHttpbinding, endpointAddress);
            #endregion

            //set fields to pull
            string[] inputfields = { 
                        "Title", 
                        "Body",
                        "User", 
                        "Department", 
                        "Priority",
                        "Type"
                                   };

            GetItemType git = new GetItemType();
            git.InputField = inputfields;
            git.ItemId = itemid;
            git.Username = "username";
            git.Password = "password";
            git.transactionId = "x";
            
            getItem gi = new getItem();
            gi.arg0 = git;
            
            //from support.ptc.com Document-CS206732
            getItemResponse gir = null;
            gir = proxyClient.getItem(gi);

            if (gir != null)
            {
                Item item = gir.@return;
                NullableShortString item0 = (NullableShortString)item.ItemField[0].Item;
                NullableString item1 = (NullableString)item.ItemField[1].Item;
                string item2 = ((string)item.ItemField[2].UserRecord[0].user.Item);
                NullableShortString item3 = (NullableShortString)item.ItemField[3].Item; 
                NullableShortString item4 = (NullableShortString)item.ItemField[4].Item;
                string item5 = (string)item.ItemField[5].Item;
            
                //cast output as strings
                string Type = item5;
                string Title = (string)item0.Item;
                string Priority = (string)item4.Item;
                string Department = (string)item3.Item;
                string user = item2;
                string body = (string)item1.Item;

can you suggest me how you got the integrity class for C#. did you created your self or you used some other library?

It's generated by visual studio using the webservice definitions in integrity

1. In Visual Studio, go to Solution Explorer on the right side > expand and right-click References > add Service Reference (requires a project in .net 3.5 or later)

2. Fill in the address with http://servername:port/webservices/10/2/Integrity/?WSDL and click Go (where 10/2 are your Integrity version numbers)

3. Set the Namespace to "Integrity" (this is the class name)

4. Then make sure you include the library:

using [myProject].Integrity;
