Generic Web Services Client for Microsoft Dynamics NAV
This simple codeunit allows you to consume any NAV page web service from C/AL without having to write any wrapper classes in .NET, or deploy any external dependencies. The only thing you need to have is the URL to the page web service.

    I said I would post the source, so I did. It's no voodoo inside, I don't know why I'd keep it secret :wink:

    Hi, I asked on your site if I could debug the C# code? :oops: A big thanks for opening up my view for what can be done with those soap messages. The .net framework saves us from programming a lot of steps but I was feeling a bit dumb for not understanding what goes on behind the scenes.

    I'll put up the C# code on my site - I need to produce it myself, too :) I started from it, but then was dumb enough to not save it ](*,)

    And I am trying to make it work in 2009, too. It's kind of tricky because there is no GETDOTNETTYPE, and some differences between .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.0. Some patience, and over weekend I post all of it here, and on my blog.

    if you make it work in 2009 I can import it. And debug the c# on the server. That's ok too of course.

    About the .NET version, 2009 installs 3.5 I think, don't no yet about 2013.

    I'll make it work, I am working on it as I, well, type :) But you can debug it in C# even in 2013. That won't help, though. It shows much more complicated version of C#, with a lot of overhead. The original C# code is way simpler than this 2009, and in 2009 I had to pull a lot of tricks to make it work.

    For NAV 2013 I am pretty sure it's compatible with 4.5, as I have been deploying some 4.5 assemblies, and it ran them without whining.

    Update October 08, 2012
    ==================
    There are two files inside: one for NAV 2009 and one for 2013. I haven't fully tested the NAV 2009 version. It is a bit different because of differences between the .NET interoperability implementation in NAV, and the limitations of NAV 2009. I am not going to maintain the NAV 2009 version, and it is here just as an example of how to address the limitations, such as the lack of the GETDOTNETTYPE and the fact that simple data types translate directly to C/AL types.
    To run the NAV 2009 version correctly, you need the latest hotfix for NAV 2009.
