Re: Best Practice

[tony . q . weddle]

Thanks, Nikki.

We have a standard of complying to Basic Profile 1.0, for interoperability but, on top of that, I'm looking for generally accepted good ways of doing stuff during development of web services servers and clients. Beyond BP 1, are there useful ways to structure WSDL and type definitions, are there any deployment tips, are there any patterns for common problems in web services, tips on building and testing, and so on. I've seen this sort of stuff for languages and technologies in the past and, no doubt, best practices will emerge on web services, in the future. Quite a good, thin, book of Java is "Java with Style" (or some such title). It would be nice to have something like that for web services, but, until then, if anyone has produced anything in this vein, that would be great.

Thanks for the links. I was aware of them but don't think they have anything specific on best practice, though some of the information might prove useful for a best practices guide.

Cheers,
Tony




Hi Tony

Not sure what you're after in particular,

For W3C's efforts in this area see links from http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/
For OASIS efforts see  http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/index.php

For Axis there is the userguide, this list & if you search the archives of
this list for "books" you may find other helpful references.
