Setting property and parameter values

Add/SetValue with InvokeRequestData

This example shows how to do this with the InvokeRequestData IDO protocol class:

InvokeRequestData invokeRequest = new InvokeRequestData(); 
int version = 600; 
DateTime recordDate = DateTime.Now; 

invokeRequest.IDOName = "MyIDO"; 
invokeRequest.MethodName = "MyMethod"; 
invokeRequest.Parameters.Add("Mongoose"); 
invokeRequest.Parameters.Add(version); 
invokeRequest.Parameters.Add(Guid.NewGuid()); 
invokeRequest.Parameters.Add(recordDate); 
invokeRequest.Parameters.Add(IDONull.Value);  // Set later. 

// Set the fifth parameter after it has been added: 
invokeRequest.Parameters[4].SetValue(100); 

Both the Add and SetValue methods accept a value of any supported .NET data type and automatically handle the conversion to internal format; so, you do not need to think about conversion issues.

Add/SetValue with UpdateCollectionRequestData

The code to set property values into the UpdateCollectionRequestData IDO protocol class is very similar to the previous example.

UpdateCollectionRequestData updateRequest = new UpdateCollectionRequestData(); 
IDOUpdateItem updateItem = new IDOUpdateItem(); 
updateItem.Action = UpdateAction.Insert; 
updateItem.Properties.Add("UserId", IDONull.Value); 

// Set later. 
updateItem.Properties.Add("UserName", "MGUser"); 
updateItem.Properties.Add("RecordDate", DateTime.Now); 
updateItem.Properties.Add("RowPointer", Guid.NewGuid()); 
updateItem.Properties["UserId"].SetValue(100L); 
updateRequest.IDOName = "MyIDO"; 
updateRequest.Items.Add(updateItem);
