Why does C# Web Service code look weird?

January 25th, 2010 No comments

Today I read a posting at VMware community forum about the weird code required by C# Web Service. If the following line is missing, then the vSphere API call to get properties doesn’t work:

VimApi.VimService.PropertySpec.allSpecified = True 

But the problem is that there isn’t any property defined as allSpecified in the object PropertySpec according to vSphere API Reference.

So, where does the allSpecified come from? and why is it needed?
