Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possibel to invoke a web service from an expression
shape. I would like to use a web service to set up the port adress of a
dynamic port. is there a possibility to do that with an expression?

Regrads,

Erik

Eric,

you can do anything you need in an expression shape. You can have a class
that wraps a call to web service, create instance of that class in the
shape and call a method, or do everything inline. Then you will set
OutboundTransportLocation property on your message to the value that you
are interested in. Did you hit any problem trying to do this?

Michael,

thanks, for your answer, but I've still som questions? I would appreciate to
use the service directly, instead of using a wrapper. How does doing it
'inline'
work? As told I've a web service which has a method that returns a URL
string for the port address (and takes a string to query the 'right' address
).
Where and how I inoke the web service and setup the OutboundTransportlocatio
n?
In an expression shape?

Regards

Erik
