At my last place we used to do a lot via XML SOAP - Basically the client would construct an XML request which would contain the service to invoke and send that onto a host and port
The server would then take that service request and figure out the class and method to call and serialise the request / response
This was helpful as we had Java and C# and wanted to segregate the two
If you had to build this out what libraries would you use?
Specifically how the main machine translates a service name => class and method invocation
-
In C# I'd look at WCF in the first instance, that allows you to create web services very simply.
ChloeRadshaw : Is what I am trying to do called a web service?ewall : As Flanders might say, "Yes indeedy-doody it is!" -
For Java, I have experience with axis2 from Apache. It works well enough that I would recommend it and use it again on a SOAP project.
