Syntax

TibxFedExFreightRates

Remarks

When providing origin, destination information, weight, and service, this component allows a user to obtain a rate quote for a specific service, or a list of available FedEx Express services with the respective rate quotes.

You can send a rate request to FedEx by calling the GetRates method for a specific FedEx service (when RequestedService is specified). The component will return rates for packages based on a combination of origin, destination, service type, weight, and package type. This also checks if the requested service is available, checks your origin/destination pair and ship date to determine whether the service you requested is a valid service type.

Discount rates are available for all services and origin/destination pairs. List rates are available for Express and Ground U.S. shipments only. To have list rates returned with your discount rates, you must set the RateType to 0 (rtList). This way, you will receive both discount and list rates.

When requesting a rate quote, include as much detail as possible about your shipment. This information is important for calculating the correct shipping costs with surcharges.

Rating for a Multiple Package Shipment (MPS) is available for: Express U.S. Domestic and International multiple package shipments, Ground US Domestic and International multiple-package shipments, Express Domestic C.O.D. and International C.O.D. multiple-package shipments and Ground Domestic C.O.D. and International C.O.D. multiple-package shipments.

Please note that all rate quotes are estimates only and may differ from the actual invoiced amount.

With the FedExFreightRates Component, you can:

• Ensure service availability (after you provide the carrier code, service type, origination & destination postal codes, packaging type, drop-off type, and estimated weight);
• Retrieve the rate required for that shipment.

The restrictions on the allowed property values are listed separately under each control property description. If the user enters more than the allowed number of characters, an error will not be generated. The control will simply pass in the characters provided and the server may disregard the extra characters. This is important since the resulting value could prevent a correct response.

To use this component, you must have a FedEx FedExAccountNumber. You should also have already obtained a ClientId and ClientSecret; uniquely assigned to your account by FedEx.

Length + 2*(Width+Height) must be less than or equal to 130 IN or 330 CM. When PackageWidth is provided in the request, then all other dimensions (PackageLength and PackageHeight) are to be set as well.

For USPS, this only applies to GetRates and is only required if the package is irregular and the PackagePackagingType property is set to ptNonRectangular. (In this case PackageWidth and PackageHeight must still be set). For parcels, PackageLength is the measurement of the longest dimension and PackageWidth and PackageHeight make up the other two dimensions. PackageGirth is the measurement around the thickest part of the package, perpendicular to the length.

Except for Parcel Post, no mailpiece may measure more than 108 inches in length and girth combined. Parcel Post pieces measuring over 108 inches, but not more than 130 inches in combined length and girth are mailable at the applicable oversized rate.

Note that the PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight are required for Priority Mail packages when the PackageSize is set to psLarge.

Note also that this applies to Endicia shipping label requests.

For Canada Post, this field should be set to the Shortest dimension (3.1 digits e.g. 999.9 pattern).

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

};

Default Value

ptNone

Remarks

The packaging type of the package being rated and/or shipped.

Possible values are:

If this is set to a value that is not applicable to a certain provider, it will automatically be set to ptNone (0).

For FedEx, this is required in a ship request when either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method is called. FedEx only supports one packaging type for the whole shipment, so only the PackagePackagingType for the first package is used in label requests.

If the PackagePackagingType is set to 31 (Your Packaging), then the dimensions of the package should be provided in the request by setting the following: PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight.

If the ServiceType is set to any of the FedEx Ground services (Ground or Ground Home Delivery), then the PackagePackagingType will be automatically set to 31 (Your Packaging).

Please note that the types pt10kgBox (13) and pt25kgBox (14) are only meant for international shipments and domestic shipments outside of the United States.

For UPS, please note that when selecting PackagePackagingType make sure this is valid for all the following: SenderCountryCode, RecipientCountryCode, ServiceType, and all special services requested at both shipment and package level.

Also the following restrictions apply when using UPS Mail Innovations:

For USPS, this is used for getting rates and Endicia labels. For international shipments, the only valid values are: ptRectangular and ptNonRectangular.

For Canada Post, ptLetter (2) is only applicable if theContractId is set.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

Data Type

Integer

PackageSignatureType Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

Specifies one of the Delivery Signature Options requested for this package.

Syntax

__property TibxFedExFreightRatesPackageSignatureTypes PackageSignatureType[int PackageIdx] = { read=FPackageSignatureType, write=FSetPackageSignatureType };

enum TibxFedExFreightRatesPackageSignatureTypes {
  stServiceDefault=0,
  stAdult=1,
  stDirect=2,
  stIndirect=3,
  stNoSignatureRequired=4,
  stUSPSDeliveryConfirmation=5,
  stAdult19=6
};

Default Value

stServiceDefault

Remarks

Specifies one of the Delivery Signature Options requested for this package. Possible values are:

For FedEx Express shipments, the NoSignatureRequired option will not be allowed when the following special services are requested: Alcohol, Hold At Location or Dangerous Goods.

For residential FedEx Ground International shipments from Canada to the U.S., two valid signature options are allowed: NoSignatureRequired and Direct.

The impact of signature options fees may vary depending on your agreement with FedEx. Following are the definitions for FedEx:

• Service Default: In this case, the appropriate signature option will be selected for your shipping service. For example, if the package contains Dangerous Goods, the Direct signature option is chosen for you. The actual signature option applied to this package could be different than the signature option requested if a conflict occurred with other service features in the package. In this case, the value set in the request will be ignored.
• Indirect Signature Required: Indicates that an indirect signature is required upon delivery. This is allowed to residential addresses only. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature in one of three ways: from any person at the delivery address, from a neighbor, building manager, or other person at a neighboring address. The recipient can sign a FedEx door tag authorizing release of the package without anyone present. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Direct Signature Required: Indicates that a direct signature is required upon delivery. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature from any person at the delivery address. If no one is at the address, FedEx will reattempt delivery; Direct Signature Required overrides any recipient release that may be on file for deliveries to nonresidential addresses. This option is not available for Hold at FedEx Location shipments. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Adult Signature Required: Indicates that the adult signature is required upon delivery. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature from any person at least 21 years old (government-issued photo identification required) at the delivery address. If no one is at the address, FedEx will reattempt delivery. Adult Signature Required overrides any recipient release that may be on file for deliveries to nonresidential addresses. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.

Note: In the server reply, this option may differ from that requested value due to other characteristics of the shipment.

For UPS, when delivery confirmation is requested for a package, the PackageSignatureType should be set to a value other than 0 (stServiceDefault). The availability of this special service depends on the ServiceType. The type stIndirect is not valid for UPS packages.

Also, when using UPS Mail Innovations, delivery confirmation can be requested by setting this to stUSPSDeliveryConfirmation.

Delivery Confirmation and COD cannot coexist on a single package. Also, Delivery Confirmation option cannot be combined with the Return Services option.

For USPS, if this is not set to stServiceDefault or stNoSignatureRequired, the Signature Confirmation service will be used. Also, for Express label shipments, set this to stNoSignatureRequired to waive the signature requirements.

This does not apply for Canada Post.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

0

Remarks

Contains the collection of special services offered on the package level. Valid values are:

For FedEx, to request any of the special services offered for a particular package in a ship request, you must set the PackageSpecialServices of that package to a set of valid flags.

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below for FedEx:

• Appointment Delivery: Indicates that the appointment delivery special service is requested for this package. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Dangerous Goods: Indicates that this package contains dangerous goods. When the PackageSpecialServices contains this flag, then the PackageDangerousGoodsAccessible is required to be provided in the request as well. For FedEx Express services, these types of shipments are referred to as dangerous goods shipments. For FedEx Ground services, these types of shipments are referred to as hazardous materials (Hazmat) shipments. Hazmat shipments must be single package. FedEx Ground provides reliable delivery of hazardous materials in all U.S. states except Alaska and Hawaii. If you have not shipped hazardous materials with FedEx Ground before, contact your FedEx account executive first. FedEx needs to confirm that you have met government training requirements and can generate the documentation your shipments need. Additional information regarding hazardous materials shipping is provided at fedex.com/ us/services/options under the Hazardous Materials link. The Shipper's Hazardous Materials Certification report (OP-950), prints after a successful Ground close request. Please note that Hazmat shipments must be single package. If you create a multiple package (MPS) hazmat shipment, only one commodity prints on the OP-950. FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dangerous goods/Hazmat materials. This might affect service availability as well.
• Dry Ice: Indicates that this package contains dry ice. FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dry ice. This might affect service availability as well.
• Priority Alert: Indicates whether the priority alert special service is requested for this package. This is applicable to domestic shipments only. A per package surcharge is associated with Priority Alert. This is applicable for FedEx First Overnight and FedEx Priority Overnight. It can be associated with: Saturday Delivery, Hold Saturday, Hold at Location, Dangerous Goods, Dry Ice or Signature Service Option. Please note that Priority Alert requires a service contract. If you are interested in signing up for Priority Alert, contact your FedEx account executive.
• Non Standard Container: Indicates whether this package type is a non standard container. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• COD: Indicates that this is a COD package. This service will affect shipping rates and service availability. This is applicable for domestic FedEx Express and Ground services, except FedEx Home Delivery premium. When shipping COD via FedEx Ground, the PackageCODAmount and PackageCODType must also be provided in the request.

For UPS, to request any of the special services offered for a particular package in a rate or ship request, you must set the PackageSpecialServices of that package to a set of valid flags.

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below:

• Additional Handling: Indicates that additional handling special service is requested for this package. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Non Standard Container: Indicates whether this package type is to be considered a large package (a non standard container). Dimensions must be 130 to 165 inches: Length + (2 x Width) + (2 x Height). This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.

Some other special services on package level, such as COD, Delivery Confirmation, Insured Value, are already implemented respectively through the PackageCODAmount and PackageCODType, PackageSignatureType, and PackageInsuredValue.

This property is not applicable to USPS or Canada Post.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

PackageWeight Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

Weight of this package.

Syntax

__property String PackageWeight[int PackageIdx] = { read=FPackageWeight, write=FSetPackageWeight };

Default Value

"0.0"

Remarks

Weight of this package.

For FedEx, this is required to be provided in the request. It requires one explicit decimal position in pounds or kilograms, depending on the value of the WeightUnit config, (i.e. N.N formatting).

For UPS, this is required to be provided in the request for each package contained in the shipment if PackagePackagingType is set to a value other than 0 (UPS Letter). For Ground shipments, if the actual weight is less than 150 pounds, then the billable weight is 150 pounds. Air and 3 Day Select shipments will not be subject to a minimum billable weight. Format: it requires one explicit decimal position in pounds or kilograms, depending on the value of the WeightUnit config, (i.e. N.N formatting).

Note that if the ServiceType stUPSSurePostLessThan1LB or stUPSFirstClassMail is used, or the ServiceType stUPSExpeditedMailInovations is used with the PackagePackagingType ptMachineables, ptIrregulars, or ptStandardFlat then the weight must be specified in ounces. The WeightUnit config will be set automatically to "OZS" if not set.

For USPS, this must be the weight in pounds and ounces of the package. Package weight cannot exceed 70 pounds. (First-Class Mail cannot exceed 13 ounces. Bound Printed Matter cannot exceed 15 pounds). On international shipments, weight limits vary by country.

The format must be in "N lbs N oz", or as an integer showing the number of ounces. For example, a package with weight 6 lbs, 8 oz can be specified as "6 lbs 8 oz" or as "104".

However, in USPS, if PostageProvider is set to ppEndicia, then the format must be one explicit decimal position in ounces (i.e. N.N formatting).

For Canada Post, the weight of the parcel should be specified in kilograms (e.g. 99.999).

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

For FedEx, the PackageWidth is optional, but recommended, if "Your Packaging" is used as PackagePackagingType. This is required if PackageLength and PackageHeight are provided in the request. It is also required if a FedEx Express heavyweight service is selected for the shipment.

For UPS, this is the width of the package used to determine dimensional weight and therefore is recommended for all shipments.

It is required for GB to GB, and Poland to Poland shipments, and for 'Pallete' packaging type. For UPS packaging types: the length, width and height are defaulted.

Length + 2*(Width+Height) must be less than or equal to 130 IN or 330 CM. When PackageWidth is provided in the request, then all other dimensions (PackageLength and PackageHeight) are to be set as well.

For USPS, this is only required if the package is irregular and the PackagePackagingType property is set to ptNonRectangular. (In this case PackageWidth and PackageHeight must still be set).

Note: For parcels, PackageLength is the measurement of the longest dimension and PackageWidth and PackageHeight make up the other two dimensions. PackageGirth is the measurement around the thickest part of the package, perpendicular to the length.

Except for Parcel Post, no mailpiece may measure more than 108 inches in length and girth combined. Parcel Post pieces measuring over 108 inches, but not more than 130 inches in combined length and girth are mailable at the applicable oversized rate.

Note that the PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight are required for Priority Mail packages when the PackageSize is set to psLarge.

Note also that this applies to Endicia shipping label requests.

For Canada Post, this field should be set to the second longest dimension (3.1 digits e.g. 999.9 pattern).

When SSLAcceptServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLAcceptServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLAcceptServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLAcceptServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is not available at design time.

Byte Array

SSLCertEncoded Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).

Syntax

__property String SSLCertEncoded = { read=FSSLCertEncoded, write=FSetSSLCertEncoded };
__property DynamicArray<Byte> SSLCertEncodedB = { read=FSSLCertEncodedB, write=FSetSSLCertEncodedB };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLCertStore and SSLCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

SSLCertStore Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

This is the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.

Syntax

__property String SSLCertStore = { read=FSSLCertStore, write=FSetSSLCertStore };
__property DynamicArray<Byte> SSLCertStoreB = { read=FSSLCertStoreB, write=FSetSSLCertStoreB };

Default Value

"MY"

Remarks

This is the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.

The SSLCertStoreType property denotes the type of the certificate store specified by SSLCertStore. If the store is password protected, specify the password in SSLCertStorePassword.

SSLCertStore is used in conjunction with the SSLCertSubject property to specify client certificates. If SSLCertStore has a value, and SSLCertSubject or SSLCertEncoded is set, a search for a certificate is initiated. Please see the SSLCertSubject property for details.

Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.

The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:

When the certificate store type is PFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is PFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).

Data Type

Byte Array

SSLCertStorePassword Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

If the type of certificate store requires a password, this property is used to specify the password needed to open the certificate store.

Syntax

__property String SSLCertStorePassword = { read=FSSLCertStorePassword, write=FSetSSLCertStorePassword };

Default Value

""

Remarks

If the type of certificate store requires a password, this property is used to specify the password needed to open the certificate store.

Data Type

String

SSLCertStoreType Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

This is the type of certificate store for this certificate.

Syntax

__property TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLCertStoreTypes SSLCertStoreType = { read=FSSLCertStoreType, write=FSetSSLCertStoreType };

enum TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLCertStoreTypes {
  cstUser=0,
  cstMachine=1,
  cstPFXFile=2,
  cstPFXBlob=3,
  cstJKSFile=4,
  cstJKSBlob=5,
  cstPEMKeyFile=6,
  cstPEMKeyBlob=7,
  cstPublicKeyFile=8,
  cstPublicKeyBlob=9,
  cstSSHPublicKeyBlob=10,
  cstP7BFile=11,
  cstP7BBlob=12,
  cstSSHPublicKeyFile=13,

  cstSecurityKey=20,
  cstBCFKSFile=21,
  cstBCFKSBlob=22,
  cstPKCS11=23,
  cstAuto=99
};

Default Value

cstUser

Remarks

This is the type of certificate store for this certificate.

The component supports both public and private keys in a variety of formats. When the cstAuto value is used, the component will automatically determine the type. This property can take one of the following values:

Data Type

Integer

SSLCertSubject Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

This is the subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

Syntax

__property String SSLCertSubject = { read=FSSLCertSubject, write=FSetSSLCertSubject };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

Data Type

String

SSLProvider Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

This specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use.

Syntax

__property TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLProviders SSLProvider = { read=FSSLProvider, write=FSetSSLProvider };

enum TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLProviders {
  sslpAutomatic=0,
  sslpPlatform=1,
  sslpInternal=2
};

Default Value

sslpAutomatic

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic) the component will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are:

Additional Notes

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The component will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected the platform implementation is used by default. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols the internal implementation is used.

Data Type

Integer

SSLServerCertEncoded Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).

Syntax

__property String SSLServerCertEncoded = { read=FSSLServerCertEncoded };
__property DynamicArray<Byte> SSLServerCertEncodedB = { read=FSSLServerCertEncodedB };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

Timeout Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

A timeout for the component.

Syntax

__property int Timeout = { read=FTimeout, write=FSetTimeout };

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the component will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The component will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

TotalWeight Property (FedExFreightRates Component)

The total weight of all the pieces in this shipment.

Syntax

__property String TotalWeight = { read=FTotalWeight, write=FSetTotalWeight };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is required when submitting a rate request by calling GetRates method. It requires one explicit decimal position (i.e. N.N formatting, example 5.0) and has a maximum length of 12 including the decimal.

Data Type

String

Config Method (FedExFreightRates Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

GetRates Method (FedExFreightRates Component)

Returns rate information for a specified or all available FedEx services.

Syntax

void __fastcall GetRates();

Remarks

To get the courtesy rate quotes for FedEx services, you can call the GetRates method. If the rates are needed for a specific service type, you will have to pass a value of the RequestedService (other than 'UNSPECIFIED') in the request. The RequestedService identifies the FedEx service for which you want to retrieve rate information. If the rates are wanted for all available FedEx services, you should not set a value to RequestedService before sending the request to the FedEx Server. It will default to 'UNSPECIFIED').

In either case, the following properties or config settings are sent in the request (if any of these have not been set, their default values will be used instead):

• FedExAuthorizationToken (required)
• FedExServer (optional)
• FedExAccountNumber (required)
• RateType (required)
• ShipDate (optional)
• PackageType (required)
• SenderAddress (required)
• RecipientAddress (required)
• TotalWeight (required)
• InsuredValue (optional)
• Packages (required)
• ShipmentSpecialServices that can affect rates and/or service availability (such as COD, Saturday Pickup, Saturday Delivery, Hold At Location, Dry Ice, etc.) (optional)

Regarding the Packages, please note the following:

• when requesting rates for all available services (RequestedService set to 'UNSPECIFIED'), only one package should be added to this collection even for MPS. When rating MPS, just specify the Packages and the details for one package only. FedEx will consider all packages the same;
• when requesting rates for a specific service (RequestedService set to a value other than 'UNSPECIFIED'), you will have to add as many packages as there are in the MPS specifying the package detail for each package included in the shipment.

In each above mentioned cases, if there are no packages added and specified (Packages = null), the component will throw an error.

Upon a successful response, the Services property gets populated.

If there is a problem with any of the input values within the request, the response will either raise an error (when it's an hard error) and transaction will fail, or give a warning (when it's a soft error), which can be accessed via Warning, and the transaction will go through.

For more details on errors codes and descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

Reset Method (FedExFreightRates Component)

Resets the internal state of the component and all properties to their default values.

Syntax

void __fastcall Reset();

Remarks

The Reset method does not have any parameters and does not return any value.

Error Event (FedExFreightRates Component)

Information about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TibxFedExFreightRatesErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExFreightRatesErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExFreightRatesErrorEventParams *e);
__property TibxFedExFreightRatesErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

Notification Event (FedExFreightRates Component)

Notification returned by the server upon successful request (if applicable).

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TibxFedExFreightRatesNotificationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExFreightRatesNotificationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExFreightRatesNotificationEventParams *e);
__property TibxFedExFreightRatesNotificationEvent OnNotification = { read=FOnNotification, write=FOnNotification };

Remarks

When sending a request, the server may return with a successful reply or an error. However, even when a transaction is successful, a warning or a note might still be returned by the server. In such cases, the Notification event is fired.

Notifications returned through this event are non-fatal and shipments will still be processes, labels will still be printable, rates are still returned, etc. These notifications should be treated as informational only.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (FedExFreightRates Component)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String CertEncoded;
  DynamicArray<Byte> CertEncodedB;
  String CertSubject;
  String CertIssuer;
  String Status;
  bool Accept;
} TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLServerAuthenticationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
__property TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLServerAuthenticationEvent OnSSLServerAuthentication = { read=FOnSSLServerAuthentication, write=FOnSSLServerAuthentication };

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (FedExFreightRates Component)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLStatusEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLStatusEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLStatusEventParams *e);
__property TibxFedExFreightRatesSSLStatusEvent OnSSLStatus = { read=FOnSSLStatus, write=FOnSSLStatus };

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

Config Settings (FedExFreightRates Component)

The component accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

FedExFreightRates Config Settings

HTTP Config Settings

TCPClient Config Settings

SSL Config Settings

Socket Config Settings

Base Config Settings

Trappable Errors (FedExFreightRates Component)
