Please... JSON should be compared to XML. Both is a way of serialize and deserialize structured data (like converting between binary and text representation).
SOAP is a way of calling services on other machines, to do RPC (kind of) calls. IF you want to compare SOAP with something using JSON, compare SOAP with REST-services. REST is also a way of "calling" services located on another machine, to do RPC (kind of) calls. The semantics in SOAP and REST is a bit different. While SOAP is (more or less) a RPC, REST is more like accessing a database on another machine. And it's usually (always?) possible to map REST calls to SOAP calls and the other way around. But you change your semantics doing this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
