Consuming Protheus webservice in C# (array)

Question

I have two webservices developed in Protheus(TOTVS) that will be consumed in my C# application in VS2013(Windows form).

The first always returns a string and is working perfectly, the second returns an array and this I cannot consume at all.

It’s not a connection, because if I change the return of the second webservice to a string everything works normally, but as an array I can’t make Visual Studio 2013 understand at all.

It keeps returning me an error of "Cannot implicitly Convert type" and nothing solves.

Follow the published webservice method and the error generated:

CONSUMING:

WS_FUNCSPONTO.FUNCSPONTO Recebe_Cadastro = new WS_FUNCSPONTO.FUNCSPONTO();
WS_FUNCSPONTO.TESTEARRAY qwert = new WS_FUNCSPONTO.TESTEARRAY();
qwert = Recebe_Cadastro.PEGAINFORM("00");

ERROR: Error 1 Cannot implicitly Convert type 'Relogio_ponto.WS_FUNCSPONTO.TESTEARRAY[]' to 'Relogio_ponto.WS_FUNCSPONTO.TESTEARRAY

Answer 1

It’s a simple problem of cast. Switch to the next:

WS_FUNCSPONTO.TESTEARRAY[] qwert = new WS_FUNCSPONTO.TESTEARRAY[50];
