Webservices > Limitations

▪Remote routine calls with Geometry parameters (or complex parameters containing geometries) can be mapped for Webservice access only if the respective parameters are of specific geometry types (i.e. Point, LineString, Polygon, etc.). For example, Oracle has no mechanism to specify the geometry type for a parameter (they will all be declared as SDO_GEOMETRY), so DTS will not be able to map such a routine into a Webservice. The workaround for this limitation is to modify such routines to receive geometry parameters in some other format (user types, coordinate arrays, etc.). Routine outputs are not affected by this limitation - generically defined geometries are fully supported in routine output structures.
