Question

I have an MS Dynamics AX 2012 project and I am using .Net interop.
There is a C# method inside a static class called Database:

 public static List<String> GetAllDatabases(string dataSource)

After referencing this assembly, I can execute in X++:

ADOMD.ADOMD.Model.Database::GetAllDatabases();

But I can’t read the string list that it’s returning.
I would like to use something like:

List databaNameCollection = new List( Types::String ); 
;

databaNameCollection =  ADOMD.ADOMD.Model.Database::GetAllDatabases();

But it trows an error:

Error executing code:  (object) has no valid runable code in method 'GetSID'.

How could I do it?

——-EDITED——

I found this post:

But it was in 2010, probably for AX 2009, I tried to assign:

ClrObject enumerator; 
str theValue;
;

enumerator = ADOMD.ADOMD.Model.Database::GetAllDatabases();
while (enumerator.MoveNext()) 
    { 
        theValue = enumerator.get_Current(); 
        print theValue; 
    } 

The GetallDatabases method is working with another .Net project, it is returning 10 objects, but at the X++ code, is returning nothing.

Thanks

To answer your question about .NET types in X++ and get_{x} and set_{x}:

.NET properties are shown in X++ as methods. For example, the get & set property below in C#

string Name {get;set;}

will show in X++ as

string get_Name();
void set_Name(str value);

Basically C# properties are just syntactic sugar. The C# compiler will create a get_{x} method for each get property and a set_{x} for each set property.

In your case, if you want to access the Name property in the cubeDef object you would have to write something like this in X++:

info(cubeDef.get_Name());
