Hi, what if I had a webservice method which takes a DateTime parameter and I want to be able to NOT specify this parameter (i.e. pass null as a value). One might suggest to use overloading (and run in to the trouble of having to give each webservice method a unique name(in the wsdl), but let's not delve into that one), but frankly that's not what I want.
The same question arises (how do I properly handle null with valuetypes such as int, datetime, ...) when creating [business] objects. Am I obligated to revert to a homegrown datetime class, int class, etc... just to be able to handle the null situation? What is common practice? How can this problem be tackled in an OO-minded fashion? Awaiting your responses...
