4. Using Datasource - Webservice
** Webservice like a class library. Service.asmx file creates.
Open Visualstudio 2010 --->
File --->
New -->
website --->
Goto .NET Framework3.5 --->
ASP.NET WebService --->
Browse for our location ---> Filename ... OK
Open App_Code/Service.cs and write the follow code //Bydefault it is opens
Write the following code
[WebMethod]
public string HelloWorld() {
return "Hello World";
}
[WebMethod]
public int add(int a, int b)
{
return a + b;
}
[WebMethod]
public int subt(int a, int b)
{
return a - b;
}
public int mult(int a, int b)
{
return a * b;
}
---------------------------------------
* When you run [f5] this application http://localhost:3358/ws1/Service.asmx will be opens and you will found HelloWorld, add, subt methods and if you click these methods they will run and produce out put in xml format. But mult method have no [WebMethod] option so it could not be visible in service.asmx.
================================
Ex : 2
Add the namespaces :
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
write the code in webmethods as
[WebMethod]
public DataSet MyData( )
{
SqlConnection con=new SqlConnection("Data Source=Hanu-PC/SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=MyDatabase;Integrated Security=True");
string sql1="select * from emp";
SqlDataAdapter da=new SqlDataAdapter(sql1,con);
DataSet ds=new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds);
return ds;
}
Build and Run (F5) the Webservice.
Test the method, copy the URL.
*SPD --->
