RE: Any good books

[Chester Chen]

Another book is Professional XML web services from WROX. It covers SOAP basics as well as Apache SOAP 2.2, UDDI and other tools.  It has also shown SOAP implementations with Perl, Python, C++, .Net and Microsoft SOAP toolkit 2.0. It's good book as you can use Java to develop SOAP server side, but using other languages such as .net or c++, or VB to test client side.   Chester -----Original Message----- From: Roman Brückner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 8:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: AW: Any good books Well I would like to recommend it if you want to have a quick overview about web services, but not if you are looking for some user guide to any toolkit. This book actually gave me a good understanding of web services. Roman   -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Roumeliotis, Pete [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Dienstag, 2.
