How to send an array of byte to a web service thru a smart object

Hello,

Thanks for your help.

I don´t see the first link we related to my question. It is interesting though :)

As far the second link it concerned, it is also very valuable information when using SmartForms and having the control over the Web Service (to change it), which is not my case.

So this does not help but I appreciate the links :)

You may already know this but a K2 file object follows the xml format

<File>

<Name></Name>

<Content></Content>

</File>

The content tag contains the actual file encoded in base64. Have you tried decoding only the values i the content tag and passing that to the webservice.

Example: i have previously written a web handler in c# allowing users to download K2 file attachments: see below for code snippet

attachment input is a memo, contains the file witht eh structure shown above as a string.

        private void GetFileFromXML(out byte[] fileContent, out string fileName, string attachment)
        {
            fileContent = null;
            fileName = null;

            var xDocument = XDocument.Parse(attachment);

            var file = (from x in xDocument.Descendants("file")
                         select new
                         {
                             FileName = x.Element("name").Value,
                             FileContent = x.Element("content").Value
                         }).FirstOrDefault();

            fileName = file.FileName;
            fileContent = Convert.FromBase64String(file.FileContent.ToString());
        }

I hope that help as little.

I see. I only just saw that you are using the  Endpoinst WebService Service Type. What type of webservice is it. Rest?

If all fails, have you considered.creating a custom service object and then calling the webservice through that.
