Calling further data from client

[Nigel Findlater]

Hallo,

I have an application that requires more than 1 round trip to the server. By this I mean

1. The client calls the Web Service sending some data
2. The Web service processes this data but requires further data from the client. So the web service calls the client.
3. The Web service does some further processing and returns the final result to the client.

Is step 2 possible in a Webservice

thanks...

Nigel...

No directly, you can't raise client side events with web services (yet?).

But you can create a workaround with 2 method calls:
MethodCallA(dataA)
'do stuff
MethodCallB(dataB)
