 SOAP on a ROPE Anyone here want to provide a clear concise description of what SOAP is ? What does it do that couldn't be achieved with the standard protocols ?
Apart from bypassing the firewall that is.

SOAP on a ROPE
RPC that encodes data and method calls in XML
It encodes everything in XML. Other RPC's encoded in proprietary formats.

SOAP on a ROPE While restarting Outlook, Daeron grumbled:
It is a standard protocol. Check out www.w3.org/TR/SOAP/
Of course, most of the authors are from Microsoft, so you tell me just
how standard it will remain.

SOAP on a ROPE
Remote procedure calls, encoded in XML using an HTTP transport.
It is a W3C standard.
That's what it's for.

The funny thing is that fellow is probably more intelligent and
dynmamic than flatty.
I mean, look at that skull and high forehead.
I covet his skull.

SOAP on a ROPE
Thank you for this clarification. I was mistakenly believing that the
main purpose of SOAP was to provide a common XML interface to
different technologies, allowing RPC between (possibly) incompatible
platforms. But hey, I was also thinking that the whole XML thing was a
cross-platform concept.
(For the record, yes, this is irony).

You mean sarcasm.
The question was, what does it achieve that other protocols can't, apart
from bypassing the firewall.
My answer was, that's what it's for.. bypassing the firewall, otherwise you
wouldn't need it. You could just use RPC.

"Mankind does nothing save through initiatives on the part of inventors,

set the patterns. The rivalry of the patterns is the history of the
world." (William James) Linus is just such an inventor; Linux is just such
a pattern.

[SOAP]
Huh? There's an RFC for Sun RPC (aka ONC). DCE defines an RFC spec as
well. The main thing SOAP does that can't be done with those is to
bypass firewalls.
