Good morning Guru

We have been using, with satisfaction, a Web service written in Powerbuilder for 2 years.

- This ws is called by several PB programs passing a structure as a parameter.

- This Ws returns a double. Now I need to call this ws also from a Java program.

 

Perhaps a stupid and trivial question:

Is it possible to re-call this web services from Java (and pass it a structure) or do I have to intervene and change the type of the incoming parameter?

Does the Web service written in PB recognize it?

 

TY

 

ps.

For the moment I cannot convert the ws to Pb2019 c #

Java won't know what a PB structure is.  You can overload the function in the service to handle more basic types that java understands.  That way your original function will still work with a PB client, but your java client can use the overloaded function call.  Try to keep datatypes in mind when creating new services.

Extending what Kevin suggested, create a function that can be called by Java and in that function populate a structure and pass it to the original function.
