Change Object name in generated WSDL

Good day,

I have a Web Method that uses a simple custom object, name Client, as a parameter, and also returns a Client.

However, in the generated WSDL, I want "element name="Client" " to be changed to "element name="THE_CLIENT", but without changing the class name.

Is there a way to specify that an object should have another name in the wsdl, Something like [WebMethod(Description="DESCRIPTION")], but for a class?

Thank you, have a nice day!

Hi,

I think this link provide all information you need:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2baksw0z.aspx

By default, an XML element name is determined by the class or member name. In a simple class named Book, a field named ISBN will produce an XML element tag <ISBN>, as shown in the following example.

Visual Basic

Copy Code

PublicClass BookPublic ISBNAsStringEndClass' When an instance of the Book class is serialized, it might' produce this XML:' <ISBN>1234567890</ISBN>.

C#

Copy Code

publicclass Book{publicstring ISBN;}// When an instance of the Book class is serialized, it might// produce this XML:// <ISBN>1234567890</ISBN>.

This default behavior can be changed if you want to give the element a new name. The following code shows how an attribute enables this by setting theElementName property of aXmlElementAttribute.

Visual Basic

Copy Code

PublicClass TaxRates < XmlElement(ElementName ="TaxRate")> _Public ReturnTaxRateAsDecimalEndClass

C#

Copy Code

publicclass TaxRates{ [XmlElement(ElementName ="TaxRate")]public decimal ReturnTaxRate;}

For more information about attributes, seeExtending Metadata Using Attributes. For a list of attributes that control XML serialization, seeAttributes That Control XML Serialization.

CascadingDropDown options is null or not an object

I have a couple of dropdown CascadingDropDown and the user is required to select an option from the first and then the second, and then click add. However, if they press add to fast, I get the error "'options' is null or not an object"

It's as if the the second dropdown is not full before the event is posted?!?!? Anyone know how I can prevent this?

Hi Poidda,

Based on my experience, to resolve this kind of issue we should make sure whether the problem is occurred on the client side or on the server side. Based on your description, I think your problem is likely occurred on the server side.

If it is a client issue, we suggest that you should keep the Button to be disabled until the last essential CascadingDropDown is selected. For example:

function pageLoad(){
$find("myCDEState").add_selectionChanged(onCCDSelected)
}
function onCCDSelected(){
//your other javascript code here.

$get("<%=Button.ClientID%>").disabled = false;
}

Otherwise , you should do some checking work on the server side. If it's null, return to the orignal page.

Best regards,

Jonathan
