  • 0

I have sybase stored procedures that I have written which we use in our c# application and all is working well. Now I am trying to use an IPAD and be able to call those stored procedures. From what I understand I will need to build a webservice and expose those stored procedures. I have become very familiar with IPHONE ( developed an app). I learned how to call a web service from an IPHONE by posting some questions here and getting some tutorials.
I need to know how to build a web service in c# or if mac has an equivalent then so be it. Are there documentation on how to build a web service around a stored procedure or even a sql? I gladly read any books or documentations but I can’t find any that is worth while.

Thanks
Saro

    I would definately recommend looking at WCF based web services rather than the old asmx web services. If you use WCF creating a service communicating in json is as easy as doing proper attribute decoration. What you need to look for is the WebHttpBinding and a 

         [WebGet(ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]

    decorator on your methods. You can also use uri matching to get parameters etc.

        [OperationContract]
    [WebGet(UriTemplate = "/lookup/{username}", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
    Model.UserIdentifierResponse LookupUser(string username);

    (Here the {username} is matched with the input parameter.)
