I have used .NET to call some Java web services hosted on WebSphere 3.5.4 (using Apache SOAP). The WSDL generated by the Java tools did need some massaging for WSDL.EXE to understand it, but once that was done, I had no problems. However, these were some simple web services that only passed around string data (no complex data types). And we only consumed from the .NET side. I've never tried to consume a .NET service from Java. --- Patrick Steele ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Lead Software Architect Image Process Design -----Original Message----- From: Dan Souk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 11:49 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DOTNET] MS SOAP implementation - cross platform issues? I got a very general question from someone the other day that MS' implementation of SOAP was 'not terribly cross-platform friendly'. I tried to get more specifics but wasn't able to since this guy was more of a manager than a developer. In any event, I haven't done any cross-platform work and am finding more information in the archives and Google than I can slog through. Anyone have a guess as to what he might have been referring to? Are there particular well-known issues on this? I did find an article about xsi datatypes, but that seemed to be fairly old information.
