There is nothing that would stop the web service from using the properties of the business object that is passed or the web service from returning a string as opposed to the custom business object. Interrogation of the custom object returns interesting information. The following code will generate the results in Figure 10-5. This figure shows that the Name and Address properties are available along with an added member — the __serverType property. This property defines the type on the server. function ComplexScriptCompleteCallback(result) { var str = “”; debug.dump(result); for(prop in result) str += “Member: “ + prop + “\r\n”; alert(str); } Figure 10-5 A call to debug.dump() on the returned result object produces the output in Figure 10-6. The debug .dump() method displays the contents of an object in Atlas. This method will be discussed more later in this chapter. Figure 10-6 262 Chapter 10 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 262 Caching Web Services The data returned from a web service may be cached. This can be helpful in situations where data may not be time critical (for example, a web service that returns the weather forecast for a given location). This is performed in .NET by setting a value on the CacheDuration of the WebMethod() attribute. As you may have previously done when working with web services, Atlas makes it possible to call a cached web service and get the results of a web service call. Depending on the data and the time that is required to perform the calculation, the time saved by caching may be significant when factored over thousands of possible users. Take a look at some code and the result. In this example, you are just going to display the time of each call. On the first call, both times that are returned will be the same. Subsequent calls will result in the current time being updated and the cached time being the same, while the cached time is not updated until the cache duration is over. This is the code for an .aspx page: <%@ Page Language=”C#” AutoEventWireup=”true” CodeFile=”CachedWebService.aspx.cs” Inherits=”CachedWebService” %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”> <html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” > <head runat=”server”> <title>Untitled Page</title> </head> <body> <form id=”form1” runat=”server”> <input type=”button” id=”btnGetServerTime” value=”Get Server Time” onclick=”GetServerTime();” /> <script language=”javascript”> function GetServerTime() { CachingWebService.GetServerCachedTime(DisplayServerCachedTime); CachingWebService.GetServerCurrentTime(DisplayServerCurrentTime); } function DisplayServerCurrentTime(result) { var ctrl = document.getElementById(“NewTime”); ctrl.innerText = result; } function DisplayServerCachedTime(result) { var ctrl = document.getElementById(“StartTime”); ctrl.innerText = result; } </script> <atlas:ScriptManager ID=”Script1” runat=”server”> <Services> <atlas:ServiceReference Path=”CachingWebService.asmx” GenerateProxy=”true” /> </Services> </atlas:ScriptManager> <br /> Start Call: 263 Atlas Client Script 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 263 <div id=”StartTime”></div> <br /> New Time: <div id=”NewTime”> </div> <script type=”text/xml-script”> <page xmlns:script=”http://schemas.microsoft.com/xml-script/2005”> <references> </references> <components> </components> </page> </script> </form> </body> </html> In the preceding code, on a button click, two remote calls are made out to the server—a call to the GetServerCachedTime method and one to the GetServerCurrentTime method. The GetServer CachedTime method on the server returns the current server time when it is called the first time. The result of this call is cached in server memory. Subsequent calls are returned the cached result for the next 100 seconds, at which point the next request will generate a new time and a new entry in the server cache. As a result, calls to GetServercurrentTime() will result in the current time of the server being returned while calls to GetServerCachedTime() will result in a value that is up to 100 seconds old. The following is the code for a web service: [WebMethod(CacheDuration = 100)] public DateTime GetServerCachedTime() { return(DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime()); } [WebMethod] public DateTime GetServerCurrentTime() { return (DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime()); } Atlas uses UTC encoding for dates and time. This may create confusion for you if you don’t remember it. Personally, my system is set with the time of GMT – 5. As a result, the times that were coming back were 5 hours off. Figure 10-7 shows the results of multiple calls to the cached and noncached web services. In Figure 10-7, you will notice the two different time values. This shows that calling the cached web ser- vice returns the cached value and the noncached version returns the current value of the DateTime.Now object. 264 Chapter 10 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 264 Figure 10-7 Exposing Web Services from a Web Form All of the examples you’ve explored to this point in this chapter have used a dedicated web service. It is also possible to have a web service that is exposed within an internal page of a web application. On the surface, it appears that there is no real advantage to this. However, there are two advantages to using web services that are exposed by a web form. These are: ❑ The page and web service are deployed together. There are fewer files to deploy and fewer things that can go wrong. ❑ While not having been announced as this is being written, it appears that Microsoft will be adding some special functionality that will be available only to a web service that is called within a web form. Given the early status of Atlas, more information will come out about this in the future. This next example calls back to a web service on the same .aspx page. The code for the web page is: <%@ Page Language=”C#” AutoEventWireup=”true” CodeFile=”InternalWebService.aspx.cs” Inherits=”InternalWebService” %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”> <html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” > <head runat=”server”> <title>Internal Web Service Page</title> </head> <body> <atlas:ScriptManager ID=”Script1” runat=”server”> </atlas:ScriptManager> <form id=”form1” runat=”server”> <div> <input type=”button” id=”btn” value=”Call Internal Web Service” onclick=”CallInternalWebService()” /> 265 Atlas Client Script 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 265 <script language=”javascript”> function CallInternalWebService() { PageMethods.CallInternalWebService(InternalCallBack); } function InternalCallBack(result) { alert(result); } </script> </div> </form> </body> </html> In the preceding code, note that the calling convention is not Class.MethodName(), but PageMethods .MethodName() . PageMethods is a special class that is used to call the methods internal to a page. The code-behind file is shown below. Note the addition of the System.Web.Services namespace, which is not typically specified in a code-beside or aspx page. The method displayed in the following merely returns a string as an example; however, any number of datatypes can be returned, just like a regular web service and the other examples. using System.Web.Services; [WebMethod] public string CallInternalWebService() { return (“Internal Web Service Called.”); } The result of this is shown in Figure 10-8. Figure 10-8 266 Chapter 10 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 266 Atlas Extensions to JavaScript Atlas allows for the creation of rich client-side applications that run within the browser. To facilitate the creation of these applications, Atlas has created a set of extensions to the type system in JavaScript. These extensions provide many of the features of the .NET type system to the client-side web browser environment. These extensions include namespaces, inheritance, interfaces, enums, support for strings, and arrays. Language Enhancements JavaScript has been around as a language since the early betas of the Netscape Navigator 2.0 web browser appeared in late 1995 to early 1996. Since then, there have been numerous enhancements to the JavaScript language. The latest version of the language is version 1.6. With the shipment of the .NET Framework, Microsoft has released a framework that contains a set of base classes that have features across various languages, including Visual Basic, C#, and JavaScript when running native and server- side applications. Into this, steps Atlas. Atlas provides a set of enhancements on top of JavaScript as it runs in the web browser. The next sections look at these enhancements and extensions. Controls Atlas provides a set of controls, classes, and objects that may be used programmatically in JavaScript. Object The Object class is a client version of the .NET System.Object class. The only method that it imple- ments is the getType(obj) method. This method will return the type of the specified object. Array The Array class is similar in concept to the .NET System.Collections.ArrayList() class. It has several interesting members such as length, push(), and pop(). A small example is var ary = new Array(); ary.push(47); alert(“length: “ + ary.length); In this short example, the user is presented with an alert box with a length of 1. Date The Date class is conceptually similar to a client web browser version of the .NET System.DateTime class. The Date object supports a set of methods similar to the Date() class in .NET. There are methods to create a date, get various parts of a date, and set the parts of a date. For a quick example, it is possible to create a date: var dt = new Date(); dt.setFullYear(2006, 03, 26); dt.setHours(10, 12, 13, 5); alert(“Date: “ + dt.toString()); In the preceding example code, the date that is created is March 26, 2006, 10 hours, 12 minutes, 13 sec- onds, and 5 milliseconds. The resulting date is then displayed to the user in an alert() window. 267 Atlas Client Script 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 267 Number The Number class contains several methods. There are several methods to parse the content of the num- ber as well as convert it to a string, get the exponential value, and perform other operations. Boolean The Boolean class is used for parsing traditional boolean values. It implements several methods for creating a boolean. If the passed value is a string and would return as boolean, the boolean value is returned. String The String class is a client web browser version of the .NET String class. The String() class imple- ments some of the methods that are similar to the String() class in .NET. Some of the more interesting members of the Atlas String() class are: ❑ indexOf() — The indexOf(string, startingindex) returns the value of the starting loca- tion of the specified string when at the startingindex location. ❑ lastIndexOf() — The lastIndexOf(string, startingindex) returns the value of the starting location of the last time the specified string is found. ❑ substring() — The substring(start, end) returns the substring from the starting location to the ending location. ❑ substr() — The substr(start, length) returns the substring from the starting location of the specified length. ❑ toLowerCase() — The lowercase version of the string is returned. ❑ toUpperCase() — The uppercase version of the string is returned. RegExp The RegExp class is a client web browser version of the .NET Regular Expression library. The Atlas RegExp class supports the .parse(value) method. Built-In Namespaces Atlas comes with a number of built-in namespaces and classes for managing data, HTTP communica- tion, user interface design, and other things. These are in the Sys.* namespaces. The next sections look at several of the namespaces and their associated classes. Sys.Net.WebRequest The Sys.Net namespace provides a set of classes to facilitate HTTP communications between the client and the web server. Though other classes exist within the name, the one we are going to look at is the WebRequest class. The Sys.Net.WebRequest class provides support for making HTTP requests. The following sample code, for example, makes a web request. var request; 268 Chapter 10 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 268 function MakeCall() { request = new Sys.Net.WebRequest(); var url = Sys.Net.WebRequest.createUrl(“PageThatIsCalled.aspx”, null); request.set_url(url); request.completed.add(RequestCompleted); request.timeout.add(RequestTimeOut); request.invoke(); } function RequestCompleted(objSender, evArgs) { if (blRun == true ) { var obj = objSender.get_webRequest(); var objWR = objSender.get_data(); debug.dump(objWR, “Web Content:”, true); } } Figure 10-9 shows the output of the preceding code. In this example, the content from the called page is contained within the debug.dump statement as expected. In the preceding example, a call is made out to a web page in the same directory, and its contents are displayed. Figure 10-9 Sys.Data.DataColumn The Sys.Data namespace provides a set of classes that are essentially client-side versions of the similar classes in the System.Data namespace of the .NET Framework. This namespace provides support for classes called DataColumn, DataRow, DataTable, DataView, DataFilter, DataSource, and PropertyFilter. 269 Atlas Client Script 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 269 The Sys.Data.DataColumn class allows for the interrogation of column information within a Sys.Data.DataTable class. The DataColumn exposes the following members. These members will be useful for processing datasets and data tables that are returned from a web service. Members Description get_columnName() This method will retrieve the column name of a specific column. get_dataType() This method will retrieve the datatype of the column. get_defaultValue() This method will retrieve the default value of a column. dispose() This method will dispose() of the object and perform any nec- essary cleanup. The following example code will interrogate a returned dataset. The first thing that is necessary is to get a datatable. This is performed by calling the result.getItem(0) method. function MethodReturn(result) { var i = 0; var str = “”; var strColInfo = “”; var strReturn = “<br />”; for (prop in result) str += “Property: “ + prop + “\r\n”; alert(str); var tbl1 = result.getItem(0); for(i = 0; i < tbl1.get_columns().length; i++) { strColInfo += tbl1.get_columns()[i].get_columnName() + “:” + tbl1.get_columns()[i].get_dataType() + strReturn; } document.getElementById(“ColInfo”).innerHTML = strColInfo } In the preceding code, a web service returns a dataset in the result variable to the MethodReturn() JavaScript function. There is a for() loop that returns the properties/members of the result object. This is then presented to the user in an alert() box. This alert() box is only for information’s sake. The first table in the dataset is pulled out of the dataset by calling result.getItem(0). Within the first table, the next for() loop iterates through the columns returned, gets the datatype, and creates a string, and after the for() loop exits, the data is presented to the user. Figure 10-10 shows the output of the preceding code. One thing to notice is that the get_dataType() returns information. 270 Chapter 10 13_78544X ch10.qxp 7/18/06 3:17 PM Page 270 [...]... 272 Atlas Client Script For more information about this namespace and classes and others, you can check out http://atlas asp.net/ and http://atlas.asp.net/docs for updated documentation from Microsoft along with the site for this book http://BeginningAjax.com Registering Namespaces and Classes in Atlas JavaScript is a fairly simple scripting language When implemented in a web browser environment, it lacks...
