WEB SERVICE SET PARAMETER ( name ; value {; soapType} )

Parameter	Type	Description
name	String	Name of parameter to include in SOAP request
value	Variable	4D variable containing the value of the parameter
soapType	String	SOAP type of the parameter

Description

The WEB SERVICE SET PARAMETER command enables the definition of a parameter used for a client SOAP request. Call this command for each parameter in the request (the number of times the command is called depends on the number of parameters).

In name, pass the name of the parameter as it must appear in the SOAP request.

In value, pass the 4D variable containing the value of the parameter. In the case of proxy methods, this variable is generally $1, $2, $3, etc., corresponding to a 4D parameter passed to the proxy method when it was called. It is, however, possible to use intermediary variables.

Note: Each 4D variable or array used must first be declared using the commands of the theme Compiler or Arrays.

By default, 4D automatically determines the most appropriate SOAP type for the name parameter according to the content of value. The indication of the type is included in the request.

However, you may want to “force” the definition of the SOAP type of a parameter. In this case, you can pass the optional soapType parameter using one of the following character strings (primary data types):

int	Longint
boolean	Boolean
