Visual DataFlex: call WebService from the web page

I have the web service and generated class for it. I can use this generated class in windows application as it described in Help. The question is: how can I use this generated class in the web project? (the analogous actions - creating object and use its functions -, as it was in windows app, are not worked)

Sorry to answer so late, I hope you've already solved it.

There's actually a tutorial section for this in the VDF Help under Tutorials > Quick Start > Consuming Your First Web Service > Consuming a Web Service in a Web Application.

There are a couple of possibilities.

Your class may not be cWebService or you have not included it as part of a web project. For web services to be available, they MUST be part of a web project. This will usually be called webapp.src.

For functions to be available to the web service, you need to decorate them as "published"

e.g. 

{ Published = True  }
{ Description = "SOAP Hello World function definition."  }
Function HelloWorld Returns String
    Function_Return "HELLO WORLD"
End_Function

Those top two lines make sure that the function is available as a SOAP or web service call.
