Re: Using REST service created with IWS

It appears to be superceded by SI67185, if that aids in the search.

Well, for 7.3 it requires PTF SI66150, which this customer has not
applied. Which explains why I got "struc" instead of "varying".

Thanks though. I'll definitely mention to them that they are not
current on PTFs.

Peter,

Varying is supported in 7.2 and above by the compiler. See the following

Nadir, you were right. I had first tried making the email parms in my
service program varying, but IWS considered those "struc" variables. I
went back to "char" and removed the regular expression from the casenbr
parm and it works! Thanks!

Peter, remove the regular expression for now and see if it works.

Then try with regular expressions, Regular expressions are tricky and

you

need to ensure that you are specifying it correctly. I will try to
attempt to duplicate your scenario with regular expression.
