Starts an asynchronous invocation of an XML Web service method using SOAP.
protected:
IAsyncResult ^ BeginInvoke(System::String ^ methodName, cli::array <System::Object ^> ^ parameters, AsyncCallback ^ callback, System::Object ^ asyncState);
protected IAsyncResult BeginInvoke (string methodName, object[] parameters, AsyncCallback callback, object asyncState);
member this.BeginInvoke : string * obj[] * AsyncCallback * obj -> IAsyncResult
Protected Function BeginInvoke (methodName As String, parameters As Object(), callback As AsyncCallback, asyncState As Object) As IAsyncResult
Parameters
- methodName
- String
The name of the XML Web service method in the derived class that is invoking the BeginInvoke(String, Object[], AsyncCallback, Object) method.
- parameters
- Object[]
An array of objects containing the parameters to pass to the XML Web service. The order of the values in the array correspond to the order of the parameters in the calling method of the derived class.
- callback
- AsyncCallback
The delegate to call when the asynchronous invoke is complete. If callback
is null
, the delegate is not called.
- asyncState
- Object
Extra information supplied by the caller.
Returns
An IAsyncResult that is passed to the EndInvoke(IAsyncResult) method to obtain the return values from the remote method call.
Exceptions
The request reached the server computer, but was not processed successfully.
The request was not valid for the object's current state.
An error occurred while accessing the network.
Examples
The following code example is a proxy class generated by the Web Services Description Language tool (Wsdl.exe) for the Math
XML Web service. Within the BeginAdd
method of the proxy class, the BeginInvoke method is starting an asynchronous invocation to the Add
XML Web service method.

Remarks
Typically, you would not call the BeginInvoke method directly, unless you were building your own proxy class for an XML Web service.
A proxy class generated by the Web Services Description Language tool (Wsdl.exe) from a Service Description exposes the XML Web service methods as names derived from the proxy class to call the XML Web service methods synchronously. To call the XML Web service methods asynchronously, two additional methods are added to the proxy class for each XML Web service method, one with the Begin
prefix added to the name of the XML Web service method and one with the End
prefix added.
The proxy class calls the BeginInvoke method to start an asynchronous invocation call to the XML Web service method. For example, if an XML Web service exposes an XML Web service method named Add
, the proxy class contains a method named BeginAdd
, for starting an invocation to the XML Web service method. Within the code for the BeginAdd
, a call is made to the BeginInvoke method and the results are placed into the expected return type for Add
.
The methodName
is used to find the custom attributes which may have been added to the method, such as SoapDocumentMethodAttribute. SoapDocumentMethodAttribute provides additional information about the derived method that is required for the SOAP protocol.
asyncState
is passed into callback
and is included in the IAsyncResult that is returned from the BeginInvoke method. The asyncState
parameter can be used to pass information about the context of the asynchronous call, specified in the callback
parameter, to the delegate that handles the result.
