Interface IOutputVariableConverter


  • public interface IOutputVariableConverter
    Interface used to convert individual variables used in the reply output connected to a VS Field. This interface enabled custom conversion of the Web Service reply to a Value.

    This interface contains multiple conversion routines, depending on the use, and has defaults so that if a method is not overridden, it's just as if it wasn't processed or converted (i.e. left as-is).
