Applies to TestComplete 12.60, last modified on September 17, 2018

Description

Use the WebServiceInfo.PrepareRequestObject method to get an object holding input parameters for a web service method. You can then use properties of the returned object to specify the desired parameter values to be passed to the web service method.

Declaration

WebServiceInfoObj.PrepareRequestObject(MethodName)

WebServiceInfoObj An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to a WebServiceInfo object
MethodName [in]    Required    String    
Result Object

Applies To

The method is applied to the following object:

Parameters

The method has the following parameter:

MethodName

A string holding the name of a web service method.

Result Value

The PrepareRequestObject method creates and returns an object that holds input data for a specified web service method. This object contains properties whose names coincide with the names of the method’s input parameters.

Remarks

You can also create an object that holds input parameters for a web service method using the ParseRequest method. The difference is that the PrepareRequestObject method returns an object whose properties are not initialized, whereas the properties of an object returned by the ParseRequest method hold values specified in the SOAP request.

To generate the new contents of a SOAP request for a web service method, use the PrepareRequest method.

Example

You can find an example that demonstrates how you can use the PrepareRequestObject method for creating an object that holds input parameters for the specified web service method in the Preparing SOAP Requests in Scripts help topic.
