Powerbuilder and .NET Interoprability

| I asked this before and didn't get a response. Since it wasn't a
major functionality point (at the time) I didn't ask again.
Now that it is slowly moving from the back burner to the front
burner, I ask again (with updated techno-babble) if anyone has any
ideas or suggestions to facilitate this?
<snip>
I have created a multitude of objects being used in a few web
applications that were compiled into DLLs from C# source code. Is
there a way to reference the exposed methods in those DLLs from within
PowerBuilder 9+? Maybe as global external functions?
--EXAMPLE (in C#):
using System;
namespace nothingSpecial {
public class doIt {
public string changeToUpperCase(string s) {
return s.ToUpper();
}
public string changeToLowerCase(string s) {
return s.ToLower();
}
}
}
What I want to do as a test case is output the return value from
changeToUpperCase("asdf") or changeToLowerCase("ASDF") to a sle.
</snip>
All of my C# is COM compliant...but I can't seem to get it to access
the exposed method in my C# library.
Thank You in Advance
Adam

| You will need to expose your DLL as web services that PB can consume. Within
PB you create a proxy object that talks to the WebService. If I recall you
are going to have to use PB10.something.

| Search the PB web site, sorry. I am no longer doing PB and working with
..NET. Our PB group recently had to call our services and I saw how they set
them up. I will check today for any doc that I can point you too but I would
start at the PB website.
