Step 3: Create a BDL RECORD for the output parameters

Define a BDL record for the output message of the Web function.

Add another modular BDL record where all members map to one of your I4GL Web service output parameter, and keep the parameter order as defined in I4GL .4cf file.

You must then specify the Web service output message name via the Genero XML attribute called XMLName, and assign it to the FUNCTION NAME as defined in the I4GL .4cf file concatenated to response.

For example, in the I4GL zipcode demo there are two parameters: city and


state

. So add the following record at the beginning of the Genero file:

DEFINE zipcode_details_out RECORD ATTRIBUTES(XMLName="zipcode_detailsresponse)
  city CHAR(100),
  state CHAR(100)
  END RECORD

Note: Genero Web Services supports complex data types as output parameters.
