Create a .NET Web Service in PB 12.6 Classic

Hi All,

In previous PB Classic versions you could create a method in a PB web service to have an array of type structure as argument and pass it by Reference. Then in the method you could populate the array mapping the retrieved data from a datastore to the structure, something like this:

arg_structure     =     lds.Object.Data

Since arg_structure [ ] is an array passed by reference, the caller could process the result set.

This no longer work because PB 12.5 or PB 12.6 does not allow structure as argument.

We cannot use PB .NET because the application is very large (6 millions of lines of code or more) and also has an EAServer target and a lot of non compatible stuff.

So the question is how to pass structures to a web service created in PB Classic12.6.

Thank you for the help.
