RE: Help consume Web Service

["Smith, Nelson (nsmith)" <NSmith@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thomas, This looks like the basis for another great FAQ.  It took me
days of poking around in the dark initially to figure out how I was
supposed to use the stub once I had it generated.  A step-by-step guide
like this would be oh so helpful to newbies like us.

Thanks for your help,
Nelson Smith

Alvaro (hopefully that is your first name),

I attached a sample program to demonstrate how to call your web service.
Basically you take the stub module generated by WSDL2RPG, compile it and
then link it to a service program. Then you proceed with writing the
application program that wants to use the web service. That module has
to
include the generated stub module as a copy book. Of course that does
not
work unless you set a compiler condition before the copy statement. In
your
cases that is:

   /DEFINE PROTOTYPE_WSMP1_7NP
   /COPY QWSDL2RPG,WSMP1_7NP
   /UNDEFINE PROTOTYPE_WSMP1_7NP

With that condition the compiler includes only the prototype part of the
generated stub module.

Feel free to look at the attached sample program. At the top of the
program
you will find the creation commands (CRTRPGMOD and CRTPGM). The syntax
looks a bit strange but macthes the requirements of my STRPREPRC command
that I use to create all my objects. I recommend to start the debugger
for
the sample program after you compiled and linked it tand set a
breakpoint
on the statement that calls afiliadosSaludMP_consultarAfiliado(). When
the
program stops at the breakpoint press F10 (single step) and then look at
'impl_consultarAfiliadoRpc' to see what the web service returned.

In case of problems add the following line in order to enable the HTTP
API
debug log:

   afiliadosSaludMP_setHttpDebug(*ON:
'path_where_you_want_to_put_the_debug_log');

Hope that helps.

Regards,

Thomas
