Hi,

Could you share us more information about your webservice? How do you usually consume it? Does it return a results in xml or json format?

[nayana.kn]

1. We have our business logics in .net web service.
2. We need to connect the .net web service from mobi one. As we know .net web service output will be in xml it should be feasible to connect it in any platform.
3. We found in this blog <http://www.genuitec.com/support-genuitec/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3706&gt;, that we can connect a .net web service using the code in this.
4. But this code is not getting executed for us and we are getting the error on web service connection.
5. FYI, right now We are using the trail version of mobi one only.
6. What is the assitance right now we need to some sample application/code which will communicate with a .net web service and fetch the data from it to the controls in mobi one.

hi,

> how to communicate with the client db for storing and fetching data

Do you mean using the webdb (native sqldb on the device) or interacting with the .net webservice you requested help with recently?

[nayana.kn]

The data returned from web service will in XML format and i want help in either using this web service or in connecting client db(native sql database) directly from mobile application guidance any one of the above will help me to take forward.

Hi,

Apologies in advance for not having a good dev guide but here is a rough flow of a form example. Before I share the data are you working REST or SOAP web services?

There are 2 mechanisms for interfacing with a REST web services from MobiOne:
1- for a basic form processing api use the MobiOne Visual Designer to configure a screen to serve as a Form that can be submitted to your service using std HTTP GET or POST.
2 – for a non-http form api implement custom JavaScript ajax call with your app data/parameters (jquery example: $.ajax())

For #1 (HTTP form), do the following:
1) layout your UI including widgets to capture the data you wish to submit

2) configure the screen as a Form
– Form: enabled/checked
– Form action type: URL
– Form action URL: <url to webservice>
– Form result type: <data format> select the type of result returned by your web services, e.g., JSON, XML, Text, …

3) add a button or other control who’s behavior is intended to initiate the submission, e.g., a button with OnClick(Submit Form) action
See attachment form-ss-1.png

4) Generate html5 application code using either the Run in Test Center action or the Project menu>Generate Application Files. Note you should open your startup screen in the designer and then click it to make it the active screen before generating code.. The code generator will create a directory with the naming pattern <yourstartupscreenname>_www/ In this directory is a javascript file named <yourstartupscreenname>_custom.js that includes 2 key functions related to your form’s processing life-cycle:

preSubmitForm_<startupscreenname>()  // called before the forum is dispatched to server, can veto submission
postSubmitForm_<startupscreenname>(isSuccess, data) // called when server returns or on network failure

5) in postSubmitForm_<startupscreenname>(isSuccess,data) process the result using javascript. In the example above I am expecting a JSON result. Based on the result either I stay on the login screen or transition to a main menu screen and kick off the real app use-cases.

/**
 * Perform custom actions upon return from form submission.
 * 
 * @param {boolean} isSuccess true if all OK; otherwise false
 * @param {Object} data results of form processing; error message if isSuccess == false
 * @return {boolean} true if OK; otherwise false
 */
phoneui.postSubmitForm_m1_login = function(isSuccess, data) {
  
  clearLoginFields();
  
  if (isSuccess) {
    // process data

    var result = data;
    if (result.status == 0) {//login error
      showLoginErrorMsg(result.errorMsg);
      return false;
    }
    
    //process result.data; a user profile
    sessionProfile = result.data;
    phoneui.gotoPage('m1-main');

    return true;
  } 

I can go into more details as needed.
