Sample Web Services ExecuteRequest method not handling binary data correctly

The sample ExecuteRequest function given for Web Services has been updated to better handle binary requests such as retrieving a PDF document. The previous sample did not handle requests above a certain file size correctly.

The following have been updated:

  • Test Web Services form
  • Web Service documents
    • finPOWER Connect 2 Web Services Connectivity and Programming Guide (page 21)
      • Updated to version 1.07 and available as a PDF from the Downloads section of the Intersoft Website.
  • Web Service samples
    • /Samples/CustomUser1VB.aspx
    • /Samples/CustomLoanQuote1VB.aspx
  • Web Service API help samples
    • Topic Code.ConnectUser1VB (Code Examples\Visual Basic\Authenticate User (Visual Basic))

This arose when using the new Credit Sense Web Services to download a Centrelink PDF report.
