Class WebReference

dw.rpc

Class WebReference

dw.rpc.WebReference

Represents a web service defined in a WSDL file. The implementation is backed by a JAX-RPC framework. In general, you should use the newer dw.ws package and WebReference2 class for doc-style SOAP web service calls. However, if your web service WSDL is using RPC-style calls, you must use a WebReference object instead.

Use the Services module in Business Manager to set timeout values, not the methods for this class. The Services module provides better analytics and timeout management. To create an instance of a WebReference object, in a B2C Commerce Script file, reference a WSDL file in the webreferences directory and request the service Stub using one of the get service methods. For example, if your WSDL file is MyWSDL.wsdl, to create an instance of WebReference and access the Stub:


 var webref : WebReference = webreferences.MyWSDL;
 var stub : Stub = webref.getDefaultService();

Note: script classes representing your WSDL file are are generated by the platform and then placed in the WebReferences package. You do not need to include the importPackage statement in your B2C Commerce Script file to use classes in the WebReferences package.
