Re: [Hardhats-members] RPC Calls to VistA from .NET Application ( C# )

[Gokul Ram]

Hi,   Below is the documentation for RPC in the VistA Monograph.   My question is, how to connect to M Server, run particular RPC's and return data (Steps 1 thru 3 given below). And in this case we are trying to do that from a .NET Application.     ***************** RPC Documentation Starts ******************************************************************************   VistA's Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Broker software provides functionality so that GUI developers can:   1.  Establish a connection from a client workstation to a VistA M Server. 2.  Run RPCs on the VistA M Server. 3.  Return data to the client workstation. Once connected, the client can execute Remote Procedure Calls on the VistA M Server. RPCs are written in M and accessed through the VistA M Server's REMOTE PROCEDURE file (#8994). RPCs can: • Receive data from the client workstation. • Return data to the client workstation. • Execute other actions on the VistA M Server. ***************** RPC Documentation Ends ****************************************************************************** And you were saying about VistA Mappings for Cache ? What are they and where can I find them ? And thanks much for your reply. -GR. ----- Original Message ----- From: Walton, Edward NMN(WSH) To: 'hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net' Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 4:47 PM Subject: RE: [Hardhats-members] RPC Calls to VistA from .NET Application ( C# ) I do not know what you are trying to do, but you may what to look at the VistA mappings for Cache. With the mappings it should not be very difficult to read any patient data from a .NET Application. We have used Access to make some reports using the mapping and a ODBC connection.   Ed From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gokul Ram Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 12:09 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Hardhats-members] RPC Calls to VistA from .NET Application (C# )   Hi,   Very much new to this group and VistA software.   Trying to fetch patient data from VistA using the RPC Calls.   I found the list of RPC's by logging on to the Cache Terminal. I'm trying to find information on " How to make RPC calls to VistA from .NET Application to fetch the patient data ? "   Can you pls let me know where I can find more information on that ?   I'm sorry if I've asked a more generic question or you can point me to where I should start in this regard ?   Thanks much in advance.   -GR
