Resolved Work with DLL?

[nicolas]

Is it possible to call or work with third-party DLL libraries in progress?

I have DLLs that I can use to connect to a webservice, can guide me how to do this.

Yes.

But why would you? Unless you're using an ancient, obsolete and unsupported release of Progress web services support is built-in.

But, if you insist on doing it the hard way, you might find this helpful: http://dbappraise.com/ppt/shlib.pptx Nominally it is about UNIX shared libraries but the same concepts apply to Windows too.

because I thought it was easier.

I do not want to program DLLs, only use third party libraries.

I'm trying to connect to a web service but tells me Error 9318.

It requires something in the client version to access directly to a web service?

Some sample code: http://www.progresstalk.com/threads/public-dictionary-web-service-call-sample.116684/

9318 given you seems to use SSL (https) could be due to the fact that the server certificate is invalid... most probably self-signed or simply expired, check the WSDL URL in a browser and see if you get any warning about the server's certificate. If it's self-signed, or issued by a CA that is not trusted by PSC you'll have to install the issuing CA certificate in Progress trusted certificates, check certutil in proenv... something like `certutil -install ca.cer` - the server issuer certificate authority you can save it from the web browser.

I indicates errors: 11748, 9407 and 9318.

I intendado download the certificate website where this web service and install, and keeps asking me a spec file: 7999be0d.0.

To that particular file?

I require installing something to work with webservices, open any port in specific, could guide me on this.

 

[Marian EDU]

you need to download the certificate for the issuing CA (certificate authority)... if you use Firefox then on 'view certificate' there should be something like 'certificate hierarchy', just select the top entry and export that not the server's certificate down the tree.

you might find some of the info on KB useful, perhaps start with this... http://knowledgebase.progress.com/a...en_US&c=Product_Group:OpenEdge&fs=Search&pn=1

thank you! and is able to resolve the detail of the connection to the webservice.
