TDADesigntimeCall

Overview

The TDADesigntimeCall visual component allows to invoke a remote function of a service during design time with a specified parameters collection. The parameters collection contains different types of items: fIn, fInOut, fOut and fResult. You can manipulate the collection of input parameters in designtime mode before executing the function on the server side. When double-clicking on the component, the method will be executed and the result will be stored in the same parameters collection. After execution, you can analyze the result in designtime mode.

Learn more about the TDADesigntimeCall visual component in the Authentication and application security article (begin from Design Time consideration when accessing services that have RequireSession set to "true").
