This sample application shows how to integrate .NET applications with non-.NET platforms. The application creates a custom Web Service proxy to handle the situation where the SOAP envelope must be created from scratch rather than through an auto-generated proxy created in VS.NET or with WSDL.exe. The sample code shows how to construct the SOAP envelope, send it to a PHP Web Service, and retrieve and parse the response SOAP envelope.

The following application hosts a single Query web service that invokes the XMethods Query service described in the Invoking Web Services section and returns the number of services hosted at XMethods.

This example shows you how to use JAX-RPC to create a Web service named HelloWorld. A remote client of the HelloWorld service can invoke the sayHello method, which accepts a string parameter and then returns a string.

Here is our code to use an Amazon Web service from ASP.net. Basically any WebService available has a SOAP interface that is a WSDL file.

This section shows you an example to build a real-world web service.

The good news is that anyone can consume a web service. Its easy, read this and then I’ll show you how in a demo. It’s just like anyone can - including your grandmother - use the world wide web.

This sample deals with the WS-Attachments specification (read the complete specification at MSDN. In a nutshell the WS-Attachments specification defines how documents can be “attached” to a SOAP message as opposed to being embedded directly within the body of the SOAP message.

This sample shows how DataSets, a powerful new XML-based way to represent disconnected data, can be returned from a XML Web service method. This is an extremely powerful use of XML Web services, as DataSets can store complex information and relationships in an intelligent structure. By exposing DataSets through a service, you can limit the database connections your data server is experiencing.

Behind the scenes, JAX-RPC maps types of the Java programming language to XML/WSDL definitions. For example, JAX-RPC maps the java.lang.String class to the xsd:string XML data type. Application developers don't need to know the details of these mappings, but they should be aware that not every class in the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) can be used as a method parameter or return type in JAX-RPC.

The goal of this presentation is to give you some practical information about webservices technologies.

A UDDI businessEntity describes a business and its services.

This sample demonstrates passing information in SOAP request message headers from client to the Web Service and processing these headers at the Web Service end. The sample also implements MVC architecture using the Struts Framework.
