Mapping XML Data Types to OutSystems Data Types

When consuming SOAP Web Services in your module, OutSystems maps the XML Data Types into OutSystems Data Types as follows:

XML Data Types	OutSystems Data Types
anySimpleType anyType anyURI	Text Text Text
bool boolean base64Binary byte bytev	Boolean Boolean Binary Integer Integer
char	Integer
date dateTime decimal double duration	Date Date Time Decimal Decimal Text
ENTITY ENTITIES Enumerate values	Text Text Static Entity Identifier
float	Decimal
gDay gMonth gMonthDay gYearMonth gYear	Text Text Text Text Text
hexBinary	Binary
ID IDREF IDREFS int integer	Text Text Text Integer Text
language long	Text Long Integer
Microsoft Datasets	Text
Name NCName negativeInteger NMTOKEN NMTOKENS nonNegativeInteger nonPositiveInteger normalizedString NOTATION	Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Object	Text
positiveInteger	Text
QName	Text
short signed byte string	Integer Integer Text
time token	Time Text
unsignedByte unsignedInt unsignedLong unsignedShort	Integer Long Integer Text Integer
XML Element	Text
XSD Arrays	List In OutSystems, a List is a sequence of elements of any data type. Therefore, an XSD array is mapped into a list of records which elements are a structure that represents those elements in the XSD array. If you have an XSD array of integers, the mapping in Service Studio is a List of structures with one attribute of type Integer.
XSD Complex data types	Record
(Other types)	Text

Mapping Limitations

Types created via "restriction" over another type are usually the same as the original type. Only the maxLength and fractionDigits restrictions are considered when creating the appropriate data types, but these restrictions are not enforced at runtime.
Type element having subtype schema (i.e. dynamic schemas) is interpreted as a simple Text item.
Type simpleType having subtype that is not "restriction" (such as list, a space-separated sequence of text atoms) is interpreted as a simple Text item.
Type complexType having subtype that is not sequence, all or complexContent is interpreted as a simple Text item.
Subtype complexContent that is not "restriction" or "extension" is interpreted as a simple Text item.
SOAP Web Service annotations are ignored.
