Question

I have a webservice that returns an object i have defined. One of the properties is of the type string and holds a significant amount of characters…over 500 at times. When pass data of the same type TO the webservice, it makes it there and i see the data in my DB. When I return data to the client side, that property is getting truncated everytime. I am lost why

Where is what I have: I return QueryResultPackage.

Public Class SearchResults
    Public IssueID As String
    Public Headline As String
    Public Further_Description As String
    Public Notes As String
    Public OE_Contact As String
    Public Assigned_To As String
    Public Type_Of_Test As String
    Public Bonder_System As String
    Public Bonder_Subsystem As String
    Public Part_Number As String
    Public Revision_Number As String
    Public Serial_Number As String
    Public Bonder_Model As String
    Public Project_Number As String
    Public Severity As String
    Public State As String
End Class

Public Class QueryResultPackage
        Public successful As Boolean
        Public queryResults As List(Of SearchResults)
        Public errorText As String
    End Class

I just found out by doing a .Length that its truncating at 255 characters every time.

Answer 1

Well I figured out that its the function in my ClearQuest API that im using. For some reason its truncating the data when Access is the database. It shouldnt, but it is.
