SoapClientMessage.MethodInfo Property

Definition

Gets a representation of the method prototype of the XML Web service method for which the SOAP request is intended.

public:
 virtual property System::Web::Services::Protocols::LogicalMethodInfo ^ MethodInfo { System::Web::Services::Protocols::LogicalMethodInfo ^ get(); };
public override System.Web.Services.Protocols.LogicalMethodInfo MethodInfo { get; }
member this.MethodInfo : System.Web.Services.Protocols.LogicalMethodInfo
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property MethodInfo As LogicalMethodInfo

Property Value

A LogicalMethodInfo representing the XML Web service method for which the SOAP request is intended.

Examples

The following code fragment is part of a SOAP extension that logs the SOAP messages sent and received by an XML Web service client. This particular fragment outputs to that log file the name of the proxy class method invoked by the client.

// the XML Web service method.
