  Using Enum with Web Services Proxy

  Aug 06, 2003 01:59 PM|LINK

  Does anyone know of a way to have a web service proxy access a public enum from a Web Service. When I create my enum in the Web Service, its values and enum declaration don't come across in the proxy class. I am using it to generate a return code for a soap message and want to compare the return code in the soap message to the enum constants for exception handling.

  try{
      myObject.DoSomething();  //Generates SOAP Fault
  }
  catch(SoapException se){
      //Convert the SOAP Fault:detail errorcode to integer and compare it to the enumeration constant.
      int theErrorCode = Convert.ToInt32(se.Details.SelectSingleNode("ErrorCode").InnerText);
      if (theErrorCode = myObject.ErrorEnum.EnumCodeOne){
          proccess request...
      }
      else if(theErrorCode = myObject.ErrorEnum.EnumCodeTwo){
          process other request
      }
  }

  Any ideas on how to do this other than explicitly modifiying the proxy and placing the enum in there manually?
