Hi Jeff,

I just want to remind you that when you build an extension, it generates a DLL to be linked by the web-application. The "app.config" file you have in your Visual Studio application won't be copied to the web-application directory (to be read). The only config file read by default in a web-application is the "web.config" and it is not affected by your extension config file. There is a way to change web.config file using Service Center Factory Configuration but this is configured at eSpace level, not extension level.

I advise you to convert your "app.config" file into C# code so it can be called inside the action. This way you control what is really configured.

I am new to C# and .NET.
I have been trying to figure out how to set the endpoint within the code, but have been unsuccessful.
How can I get my app.config into my code as you suggest?

Thanks,
Jeff

Here is the appconfig I need to use to set the endpoints.
How do I set these in the CS code?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<configuration>

<system.serviceModel>

<bindings>

<basicHttpBinding>

<binding name="InquiryServiceSoapBinding">

<readerQuotas maxStringContentLength="2000000" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647"/>

<security mode="TransportWithMessageCredential"/>

</binding>

</basicHttpBinding>

</bindings>

<client>

<endpoint address=https://mydomain.com/Inquiry.svc

binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="InquiryServiceSoapBinding"

contract="OutSystems.NssMyExtension.InquiryService"

name="InquiryServiceSoap" />

</client>

</system.serviceModel>

</configuration>

Here is my trimmed down CS code.

using System;

using System.Collections;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.ServiceModel;

using System.ServiceModel.Configuration;

using System.Web.Configuration;

using System.Data;

using OutSystems.HubEdition.RuntimePlatform;

using GotDotNet.ApplicationBlocks;

namespace OutSystems.NssMyExtension  {

public class CssMyExtension: IssMyExtension  {

private const string _USERNAME = "user";

private const string _PASSWORD = "password";

/// <summary>

///

/// </summary>

/// <param name="ssAcctId"></param>

/// <param name="ssAcctType"></param>

/// <param name="ssCurrBal"></param>

/// <param name="ssAvailBal"></param>

public void MssAcctInq(string ssAcctId, string ssAcctType, out string ssCurrBal, out string ssAvailBal) {

ssCurrBal = string.Empty;

ssAvailBal = string.Empty;

// TODO: Write implementation for action

InquiryServiceClient proxy = new InquiryServiceClient();

AcctInqRequest request = new AcctInqRequest();

AcctInqResponse response = new AcctInqResponse();

request.MsgRqHdr = new MsgRqHdr_CType();

request.MsgRqHdr.subHdr = new subHdr_CType();

request.MsgRqHdr.subHdr.AuditUsrId = "Test";

request.MsgRqHdr.subHdr.AuditWsId = "Test";

request.InAcctId = new AccountId_CType();

request.InAcctId.AcctId = new AcctId_Type();

request.InAcctId.AcctType = new AcctType_Type();

request.InAcctId.AcctId.Value = ssAcctId;

request.InAcctId.AcctType.Value = ssAcctType;

proxy.ClientCredentials.UserName.UserName = _USERNAME;

proxy.ClientCredentials.UserName.Password = _PASSWORD;

 

response = proxy.AcctInq(request);

ssCurrBal = response.CurBal.ToString();

ssAvailBal = response.AvlBal.ToString();

} // MssAcctInq

} // CssMyExtension

} // OutSystems.NssMyExtension

Hi Jeff,

In your extension - or, in your .Net application - is it you who explicitly read the App.config values? Can you share that code as well - or, the entire main extension code, so we can take a look into it?

Paulo, the code has sensitive client info, so I can not divuldge more than I have.
As a temporary work around I have added the ServiceModel portion of the app.config to the eSpace web.config.
I know this is a bad way since the web.config is replaced each time the eSpace is republished.
So I need to either put this in the C# CS code, of some how be able to reference a static config file on the server.
I prefer to not use the machine.config.
What do you recommend?  And how best would I impliment your recommendation?

Thanks,
Jeff
 

Hi Jeff,

The easiest way to do this is to set the necessary configurations in code as follows:

            BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding();
            binding.ReaderQuotas.MaxStringContentLength = 2000000;
            binding.ReaderQuotas.MaxNameTableCharCount = 2147483647;
            binding.Security.Mode = BasicHttpSecurityMode.TransportWithMessageCredential;
            EndpointAddress endpoint = new EndpointAddress("https://mydomain.com/Inquiry.svc");
            InquiryServiceClient proxy = new InquiryServiceClient(binding, endpoint);

This should do the trick.

João Neves

Very nice Joao!
I think this is exactly what I needed.
So far it seems to do what I need.

Thanks,
Jeff
