Re: Attachments Axis and .NET

Should be easy enough to write a little servlet to proxy the http:get 
requests from a JDBC connection?

But anyway.

Thanks for reply,

Unfortunately the images are kept in a database, so this is not possible.

Not fully answering your question, but you might want to consider
returning only URL's to the image, instead of the image itself.
Configure your http server to serve the image url's with or without
authentication (embedded into the url for example).
That way, whoever consumes your web service only loads the images he wants.

Hi,

I'm an Axis newbie struggling away not very successfully at the moment :(

What I want to do is create a range of services that send images. I was
hoping to use Axis as the server, java code as the provider and to be able
to send the images using attachments to both .NET clients and other
   

clients.
 

The images are in a database.

Services envisaged

getMyPhoto(String myId) returns a gif
getPhotos(String[] ids) returns perhaps a zip file of gif's
Anyhow I've read that there are problems with attachments from Axis to
   

.NET,
 

is this still true? Am I going about things in the right way? Finally could
anyone point me to resources that might help in this particular task.
All best

Andrew
