I'm using BizUnit to unit-tests my Biztalk orchestrations, but some orchestrations consume a WebService,and testing these seems more like integration testing than unit testing. I'm familiar with using a mocking framework to mock the generated proxy objects, in order to test a web service from a Windows Forms application, but I would lik...
Does anyone have a recommendation about web service security architecture in Java (preferably under JBoss)? Any recommended reading? I want to expose a fairly rich web service to the world but the data are sensitive and it requires authentication from the current client (Flex), accessed via RPC. I definitely do not want any server-sid...
Our application exposes queries by way of web services, and what we've found is that our clients often want custom queries, either by way of further limiting the results returned by specifying additional criteria, or by asking for things that we don't already expose. Now, we can take the approach of creating new methods for each of thes...
I've heard a lot of people touting success using Linux based proxies to handle routing for high availability of web applications, but what are others doing with web services? I have a bank of WCF services that need to be moved to a high availability (failover) model, meaning that if a particular server hosting the WCF services goes down,...
In my web application, I need to log all the SOAP messages to my SQL 2005 database whenever I make a web service call to my business partners' web service. How do I accomplish that? Thanks in Advance, Tony ...
Aside for a few user guides found at http://fi.am/en/tag/django/2/ I have not managed to find much about WAPI. I was wondering if anyone has had an experience using WAPI and django to create a web api? I'm a little intimidated by the amount of magic these frameworks seem to do. Are there any other good alternatives to creating a web ap...

I need to create several applications that all share a Microsoft SQL Server database. These include ASP.NET web applications, WPF desktop applications, and probably the odd console app every now and then.

How do you handle a TimeoutException that is generated when calling WebServices using the SoapClient? There doesn't seem to be any event to be handled in order to catch any Exceptions generated when calling web services. Is it possible to catch any Exceptions thrown, especially the TimeoutException??

I want to share an object between my servlets and my webservice (JAX-WS) by storing it as a servlet context attribute. But how can I retrieve the servlet context from a web service? ...
We are trying to copy a BO Query Service from one Universe to another. If you use the BO Query As A Service(QAAS) tool you can do this, but end up basically recreating the query service. It seems like the BusinessObjects.DSWS.* libraries allow you to read and write query services, but those don't appear in the QAAS tool. I think that ...

Is it possible to use WSE 2.0 SP2 under VS 2008? I realise that the add-in (that generates the proxy classes/configuration) is not compatible but there are work-arounds to this (copying over the files from a VS 2003 solution). Our web services are relatively static so would not be making too many changes anwyay. We may at a future date...
I am attempting to create new membership users in an Ektron CMS400.NET-based website by through calls to the User web service API from a remote site. One of the methods I intend to utilize, AddMembershipUser has a remark in the documentation indicating "A user with administrator privileges must be logged in to perform this operation.". I...
Hi, I'm implementing an SOA at a large company, and I'm not sure which web service specifications (WS-*) actually make sense to implement. At a minimum, I'm looking at WS-Addressing, WS-Security, WS-Eventing, and WS-ReliableMessaging. However, there are several other standards that look interesting, but I don't know which ones are widel...
It there any article/book that defines upper bounded design limits for WS timeouts? Do you timeout at the server or recommend the client specific timeouts too? Is there a common best practice like "never design WS that can take longer than 60 seconds, use an asynchronous token pattern" I am interested in knowing what you do or your opi...
hi! I'm consuming an axis 1.4 web service that returns soap responses that I want to unmarshal into my domain objects using jaxb annotations. My initial tests worked very well until some of the returned messages had multiRef elements. Objects that were marshalled using multiRef were showing up as null in my client side annotated model ...
