RE: [flexcoders] Re: Choice of backend systems - which provides best functionality

The ws-i pages themselves can be found here:   http://www.ws-i.org/deliverables/workinggroup.aspx?wg=basicsecurity   Although the link was not working while I was typing this reply :).   Webservices are a very complicated story if it comes to standards. And to be honest, I am not up to par with all of them. As Derek already pointed out ‘most web service stack have *some level* of support for it’, which implies that you cannot rely on it for now.   In a few years from now it will be around and all the software stacks will have support for it. Then we can use it. So for now, you have to reinvent the wheel for this part. It’s not that hard though.   Cheers, Franck   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Derek Adams Sent: Thursday, August 24, 2006 4:32 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Choice of backend systems - which provides best functionality   WS-Security is the standard spec for securing web service calls. Most web service stacks have some level of support for it. Among the things it offers are username/token style security and encryption of some/all of the SOAP envelope. There is an overview and a few good links here: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/specification/ws- secure/ Also, see the Adobe AS3 UsernameToken support in the corelibs project here: http://weblogs.macromedia.com/as_libraries/docs/corelib/ Hope that helps, Derek --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com, "Darren Houle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Franck, > > Makes sense to me.
