DiscoveryClientProtocol.References Property

Definition

A collection of references founds in resolved discovery documents.

public:
 property System::Web::Services::Discovery::DiscoveryClientReferenceCollection ^ References { System::Web::Services::Discovery::DiscoveryClientReferenceCollection ^ get(); };
public System.Web.Services.Discovery.DiscoveryClientReferenceCollection References { get; }
member this.References : System.Web.Services.Discovery.DiscoveryClientReferenceCollection
Public ReadOnly Property References As DiscoveryClientReferenceCollection

Property Value

A DiscoveryClientReferenceCollection of references discovered.

Examples

The following code example is a Web Form that populates a DataGrid with the details about the references in the References property discovered during an XML Web services discovery. The PopulateGrid method fills the DataGrid with the references found in an invocation to DiscoverAny.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

The References collection is populated during invocations to the Discover, DiscoverAny, ResolveAll and ResolveOneLevel methods. During invocations to the Discover and DiscoverAny methods, if the supplied URL is a valid discovery document, that document is added to the References collection together with references found in the discovery document. References added during invocations to the Discover and DiscoverAny methods are not necessarily valid discovery documents. During invocations to ResolveAll and ResolveOneLevel references within the References collection are verified as being valid discovery documents. If they are valid and contain references, they are also added to the References collection.
