TServiceCustomAnswer Status is not returned to Delphi client

I have a simple method, like:

  IServerMethods = interface(IInvokable)
    function MyMethod(const data: string): TServiceCustomAnswer;
  end;

The method implementation is like:

try
  SomeMethod();
except
  Result.Content := 'server error';
  Result.Status := HTML_SERVERERROR;
end;

When I use it with a TSQLHttpClient the Status value does not return to the client, the Content and Header is OK, but the Status isn't initialized.

I was expecting that the Status would be returned to the client, so I could use it like:

Response := DoRequest;
if Response.Status = HTML_SERVERERROR then
  ....

Is the Status not expected to be filled on the client? I think it makes sense for it to get to the client, looks like a bug to me.

Re: TServiceCustomAnswer Status is not returned to Delphi client

If Status is not HTML_SUCCESS (200), then TSQLHttpClient would handle it as an error, and won't execute the method.
Only case where Status is to be used is when you have a non TSQLHttpClient as client (e.g. an AJAX client).

If you want to transmit some data to the TSQLHttpClient instance, you need to include this information into the transmitted binary content.
