How to use custom attributes over a web service?
- by gfeli
Hi.
I am currently trying to add a custom "column name" to a property in a web service. Here is my class.
public class OrderCost
{
public int OrderNum { get; set; }
public int OrderLine { get; set; }
public int OrderRel { get; set; }
public DateTime OrderDate { get; set; }
public string PartNum { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
public decimal Qty { get; set; }
public string SalesUM { get; set; }
public decimal Cost { get; set; }
public decimal Price { get; set; }
public decimal Net { get; set; }
public decimal Margin { get; set; }
public string EntryPerson { get; set; }
public string CustID { get; set; }
public string Customer { get; set; }
}
Basically I have another class (on the Silverlight side) that loops through all the properties and creates a column for each property. Thing is, I want to use a different name other than the name of the property. For example, I would like to show "Order Number" instead of OrderNum. I have attempted to use custom attributes but that does not seem to work. Is there way I can provide a different name to these properties over a web service with a use of an attribute? Is there another way I can achieve what I am trying to do?
