Your question is not clear. Are you telling that it is not possible to write a client using Axis2 to consume a service written in non-Axis2 framework?
Anyway if all you are interested in is to find out if it is possible to have one web service written in Axis2 and invoke the very same implementation either as a SOAP call (web service invocation) or ReST call - then be assured that it is definitely possible.

As far as I can think, this should not be possible as from what I've read from online docs is that Axis2 treats a REST request internally as a SOAP message. If the server side is also Axis2, then it would understand this and handle it gracefully but a non-Axis2 framework should not understand it as a valid REST call and therefore should fail. Can someone suggest or atleast provide some pointers? -- Thanks & Regards, Amit Sharma (amit.sharma01) |Senior Solutions Consultant| |IRIS Software Pvt.
