I would have to agree with Jordi. a typical http request is not the same thing as a RPC call. SOAP/xml-rpc gets very complicated very quickly. We already have the soap/xml-rpc and webservice sampler.
The webservice sampler is being refined and improved, but it is fundamentally a different approach than soap/xml-rpc. this is primarily the result of differences in java versus .NET webservices. .NET webservices prefers document oriented messaging, whereas java webservices prefers xml-rpc. I think it is worth while to improve either soap/xml-rpc or webservices sampler. what kind of improvement were you thinking of specifically sonam? peter lin --- Jordi Salvat i Alabart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why can't we keep this function with the SOAP > sampler?
