how to use datasource from webservice

[Dominik]

Hello

I can't attach webservice as a source of data to RadSearchBox

I have webservice:

[System.Web.Services.WebMethod(Description = "dane dla searchbox")]
 public List<MySearchBoxItemData> GetResults(string context)
 {
     DataTable data = GetData(context);

     List<MySearchBoxItemData> result = new List<MySearchBoxItemData>();

     for (int i = 0; i < data.Rows.Count; i++)
     {
         MySearchBoxItemData itemData = new MySearchBoxItemData();
         itemData.Text = data.Rows[i]["nazwisko"].ToString();
         itemData.Value = data.Rows[i]["nrewid"].ToString();

         result.Add(itemData);
     }

     return result;

 }

on my server:
http://ip.address/uslugi/apin01.asmx
How I must fill WebserviceSettings ?

<telerik:RadSearchBox ID="RadSearchBox2" runat="server" Height="16px" Width="244px" Filter="StartsWith">
      <WebServiceSettings Path="http://ip.address/uslugi/apin01.asmx" Method="GetResults" />
  </telerik:RadSearchBox>

Can I please for simple example with bindind to webservice data ?

regards,
Dominik

Hi Dominik,

Please have a look at this documentation on RadSearchBox Binding to Web Service.

Thanks,
Princy.

Yes, I looked into Help about bound to webservice, but unfortunately I'm confused after reading.
Because help said about <WebServiceSettings Path="WebService.aspx" Method="GetResults" />
and I have Webservice.asmx on different server.
Why help said about webservice.aspx file ?

I move post to support.

Hello Dominik,

Thank you for pointing out this inconsistency. We will update the documentation. In the meantime, you can use the attached sample page as a reference as to how to bind to a web service.
