ScriptMethodAttribute Class

Definition

Specifies which HTTP verb is used to invoke a method, and the format of the response. This class cannot be inherited.

public ref class ScriptMethodAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Method)]
public sealed class ScriptMethodAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Method)>]
type ScriptMethodAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute
Public NotInheritable Class ScriptMethodAttribute

Examples

The following example shows how to apply ScriptMethodAttribute to the GetXmlDocument and EchoStringAndDate methods to specify which HTTP verb to use and to specify the response format.

Remarks

This attribute is used to specify information for methods that can be called from client script. The attribute lets you specify which HTTP verb (GET or POST) can be used to invoke a method. It also lets you specify whether the response is formatted by using either JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) or XML.

The ScriptMethodAttribute attribute is optional. (However, methods that can be called from client script must have the System.Web.Services.WebMethodAttribute attribute applied.). If a method is not marked with ScriptMethodAttribute, the method will be called by using the HTTP POST command and the response will be serialized as JSON. You cannot override this setting from script.

ScriptMethodAttribute takes only named parameters. The following are the properties of the ScriptMethodAttribute class that can be used as named parameters:

  • UseHttpGet

    Specifies whether the method will be invoked by using the HTTP GET command. The default is false.

    Important

    Setting the UseHttpGet property to true might pose a security risk for your application if you are working with sensitive data or transactions. In GET requests, the message is encoded by the browser into the URL and is therefore an easier target for tampering. For both GET and POST requests, you should follow security guidelines to protect sensitive data.

  • ResponseFormat

    Specifies whether the response will be serialized as JSON or as XML. The default is Json. The ResponseFormat property is useful to specify XML as the return type when the method returns an XmlDocument or an XmlElement object.

  • XmlSerializeString

    Specifies whether all return types, including string types, are serialized as XML. The value of the XmlSerializeString property is ignored when the response is serialized as JSON.

For more information about how to use attributes, see Attributes.
