Question

I have a web service which is calling another client web service.

Below is my code which I am using to extract booking details from.

ResMsg.GetBookingsOperationRequest request = new ResMsg.GetBookingsOperationRequest();

        int noofBookings = 3;
        DateTime checkInDate;
        DateTime checkOutDate;
        string bookingStatus;
        string Notes;
        int adults;
        int children;
        Int64 bookingID;
        string bookingSource;
        DateTime bookingDate;

        string resResult;
        using (var proxy = new ResMesg.ResonlineMsg.InventoryServiceClient())
        {

            var result = proxy.GetModifiedBookings(request);
            ResMsg.Booking[] bookings= new ResMsg.Booking[noofBookings];
            result.Bookings = new ResMesg.ResonlineMsg.Booking[noofBookings];
            result.Bookings = bookings;

            for (int i = 0; i < bookings.Length; i++)
            {
                Booking bk = new ResMesg.ResonlineMsg.Booking();
                result.Bookings[i]=bk;

                bookingID = bk.BookingId;
                checkInDate = bk.CheckInDate;
                checkOutDate = bk.CheckOutDate;
                adults = bk.Adult;
                children = bk.Children;
                bookingStatus = bk.BookingStatus;
                Notes = bk.Note;
                bookingSource = bk.BookingSource;
                bookingDate = bk.BookingDate;

                bk.GuestInfo = new GuestDetails[noofBookings]; ** Place where error is referring to.GuestDetails is an array. GuestInfo is an instance of GuestDetails.

            }


           return "Success";


    }

Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type
‘ResMesg.ResonlineMsg.GuestDetails[]’ to
‘ResMesg.ResonlineMsg.GuestDetails’

**Updated:
Datatype for GuestDetails

Field             Data Type      Description
Name              string         Guest's full name. 
Address           string         Guest's address. 
EmailAddress      string         Guest's email address. 
PhoneNumber       string         Guest's phone number. 

Definition for GuestDetails copied out of the object browser

 public GuestDetails GuestInfo { set; get; }
        (Member of Booking)

I would be grateful for any sort of advise on how this fix this error or why it is coming. thanks

Answer 1

why not simply

 bk.GuestInfo = new GuestDetails() ;

Also lines 19,20,21 look to be doing the same thing.

 var details = new GuestDetails[noofBookings] ; 
// fill details array before this..
 bk.GuestInfo = details[noofBookings];
