We have been provided with a wsdl and xsd schema by a company we are working with via email. The web-services we are interfacing with are accessed through a IPsec tunnel. There are local references(on their end) in the published WSDL which means we cannot consume it. 1st question: Is this a common setup? I thought the point of having a ...
My team is currently developing a resume-parser for a website. Our parser will translate and format the resume into the industry-standard HR-XML. The website will then take the HR-XML-formatted information and pre-populate editable fields so the user can finalize his/her profile on the website. What would be the best way to port the H...

I try to make a list of the available web service com techniques and what they're specially good for (pros and cons). I know: XML: One way (client asks server for data) XML-RPC: Bidirectional (client can command server, get data, send data) Hessian: Very fast because binary form? Better for images, not good for text? Not sure? What...
What is the preferred way to generate the client stub from a WSDL file? I tried an Axis2 plugin, it does the job. Can WTP for eclipse generate the client stub as well? What is a better solution? Can you explain why you recommend such or such a way? p.s. Does Apache CXF have Eclipse plugins for visual generation of client stub? ...
We have 2 separate products that need to communicate with each other via web services. What is the best-practice to support versioining of the API?

I've created a WebService Proxy from a given URL, but at runtime a need to change this URL depending of some conditions. How to do it? I've searched on the web and founded that I should change the "Url" property. But, some how, this property isn't exposed in my proxy class. I am using Visual Studio .NET 2008 ...
I have quite a big project and it is all done using pagemethods. Code behind is basically just to serve and handle the data. Everything works perfect, except for one thing - I recently created a custom exception class that I want to use for more user friendly reports and even possible actions. For this purpose, I inherited the exception ...
The scenario is as follows: a device (not a PC) makes an HTTP request to a server and passes in identifying information in the http headers. The http handler on the server receives the request and keeps it open (implementing a long poll type mechanism). At some point, a user running a desktop app invokes some UI that causes information t...
So I believe all you have to do with .NET 2.0 vanilla web services (not WCF) is the following: 1) Add your service reference. In my case I'm using the PayPal WSDL 2) Before you can use any proxy class, you must first create an instance of your service reference 3) Once you create an instance of your service reference, then just do [ser...

My question is similar to this one: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1963242/need-to-call-soap-ws-without-wsdl except that my application does not use Spring so the answer was not helpful. Here's what I have: A web service that only accepts SOAP requests A current endpoint URL for the web service An outdated wsdl and xsd file An ou...

Afternoon all, We have a group of four BizTalk servers: two orchestration hosts and two adapter hosts. We have a number of orchestrations exposed as web services, and for the purposes of this question, it is important to note that these web services are hosted on the adapter servers, and run under the BizTalkServerIsolatedHost host inst...
Hi, I'm planning to develop a webservice, and I like to try the RESTful architecture. The issue is that I don't know if the service is adequate for it, or it is better to use SOAP. The service is about downloading some data from the server to a device on the local computer. The data will be split into chunks. The service will be run wi...
I'm new to flex and I am building a wrapper class for the WebService object to make my main code mxml cleaner. I am trying to pass a function to a class method to set as the result event handler for the soap call and it is not working as expected. Here is the class: package { import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; import mx.rpc.soap...
So I'm using the PayPal API. They require bigger companies to send an X509Certificate along with each SOAP API request. I've never heard of using a cert, it's always been just send the API signature along with an API request. So I first created a class called Cerficate that implements the .NET ICerfiticatePolicy. One of the member me...
