  • 0

I’m building a Delphi Win32 app that should consume a Soap Service, which turns out to be a .NET based app. One function returns a DataTable. Of course, Delphi Win32 (not Delphi .NET) has no way of understanding this natively.

Any way I can make it work? I’ll be happy to parse the XML manually too, but I’ve no idea how to get hold of the raw XML response.

The WSDL: https://stratus.voxamvia.co.za/api.asmx?WSDL

The function: GetNotifications which returns GetNotificationsResult, which builds as:

  GetNotificationsResult = class(TRemotable)
  private
    Fnamespace: WideString;
    Fnamespace_Specified: boolean;
    FtableTypeName: WideString;
    FtableTypeName_Specified: boolean;
    procedure Setnamespace(Index: Integer; const AWideString: WideString);
    function  namespace_Specified(Index: Integer): boolean;
    procedure SettableTypeName(Index: Integer; const AWideString: WideString);
    function  tableTypeName_Specified(Index: Integer): boolean;
  published
    property namespace:     WideString  Index (IS_ATTR or IS_OPTN) read Fnamespace write Setnamespace stored namespace_Specified;
    property tableTypeName: WideString  Index (IS_ATTR or IS_OPTN) read FtableTypeName write SettableTypeName stored tableTypeName_Specified;
  end;

Any help appreciated!

Would it help if I implement RemObjects?

    You can build your dataset from xml. This should give you a starting point: http://www.gekko-software.nl/DotNet/Art07.htm and http://www.gekko-software.nl/DotNet/Art08.htm.

    I haven’t used DataAbstract from RemObjects, so I can not give an advice on it.

    LE: you can access and consume a web service written in .net by following this simple article well written by drbob – Consuming C# Web Services with Delphi 7 Professional

    which contains also a small example on how to build dynamically and how to use the THttpRio (is the same as the Mikael Eriksson’s answer)
