I did MSN search and found a public web service; webservicex.net that provides a public currency converter web service.
This code snippet accesses a public web service to get the exchange rate for a given currency using x++.
static void GetExchangeRates(Args _args)
{
com com = new com('microsoft.xmlhttp');
com com1;
XMLDocument xmlDoc;
Dialog exchDialog = new Dialog("Exchange Rates");
DialogField fromField;
DialogField ToField;
str url;
;
fromField = exchDialog.addField(Types::String, 'Base Currency');
fromField.value(CompanyInfo::find().CurrencyCode);
ToField = exchDialog.addField(Types::String, 'To Currency');
if(exchDialog.run())
{
url = "http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx/ConversionRate?";
url += "FromCurrency=" +strupr(fromField.value())+"&ToCurrency="+strupr(ToField.value());
com.open("get",url, false);
com.send();
com1 = com.responsexml();
xmlDoc = XmlDocument::newXml(com1.xml());
info("1 "+fromField.value() + " = " +xmlDoc.getNamedElement('double').text() + " " +ToField.value());
}
}
