AX 2012 AIF Web services

Posted on by KeithM 535

I'm fairly new to the AIF web service side, but that seemed to have went as planned. I have consumed this the web service from AX on my windows service in VS 2013. Then I go to call a simple method in the windows service and it gives me the error: "No overload for Method 'addintegers' takes 2 arguements. What am I missing to call and return such a simple method from AX?

Method in AX:

[SysEntryPointAttribute(true)]
public int addIntegers(int _int1, int _int2)
{
    return _int1 + _int2;
}

VS2013 Service:

public void SendParts()
    {
        //ws.InventJournalTrans() = 
        PolyTransferService.PolyServiceReference.PolyJourInfoService polyJourInfoService;

        int test;

        polyJourInfoService = new PolyTransferService.PolyServiceReference.PolyJourInfoService();

        test = polyJourInfoService.addIntegers(1, 1);

    }

    Hi, you could use debugging or intellisense to see what kind of parameters the method is expecting(as you haven't overloaded it, there might be some default constructor for this)

    However, I would just simply add this method to the new service, technet.microsoft.com/.../aa607052.aspx

    I used that same exact example as you can see with the addintegers, but something doesn't mesh up.  When I start typing in the brackets it is looking for the Request type on the method call and not two integers(AddIntegersRequest request).

    Sorry, I must have missed in your question the part where you overload the method and add it as a new method in your newly created service.

    If you look it in AIF, is your addintegers method available for a (dummy) port utilizing your service?

    I haven't overloaded anything. I just added the method like it suggested in the article. I can see it just fine when I add the service operations to the inbound port, if that is what you are asking.

    Create a new instance of AddIntegersRequest - you should see properties for your two arguments. Fill values to the properties and pass the object to the service.

    Thanks Martin, I played around and got that without squiggly lines, now I am getting the dreaded "The namespace 'Poly......' already contains a definition for 'XXX....'. I haven't found a logical workaround for this yet.

    Can you tell what you did before you started getting this error? Don't you mix different type of services in the same inbound port? What type is it referring to?

    I wasn't getting these errors until I fixed my code to access the service.   I referenced this article: stackoverflow.com/.../how-to-fix-namespace-x-already-contains-a-definition-for-x-error-happened-aft, but tried that and it didn't fix it.

    What about the remaining questions?

    Sorry, I just added the standard create, find, get, etc.  I did have two different services with the same create, find. I removed them and that might have seemed to fix the error. I am still getting the request error. Getting a conversion error now, "Cannot implicitly convert type, Default...., to int".

     public void SendParts()
    {
        //ws.InventJournalTrans() = 
        Default.ServicePolyRecords.PolyJourInfoService polyJourInfoService;

        int test;

        test = 0;

        PolyJourInfoServiceAddIntegersRequest pjisrequest = new PolyJourInfoServiceAddIntegersRequest();

        pjisrequest._int1 = 1;
        pjisrequest._int2 = 9;

     test = polyJourInfoService.addIntegers(pjisrequest);
        //pjisrequest.CallContext

    }
