While I'm thrilled about REST, I still need to interface with the real world, and SOAP is unfortunately a necessary API interface for my upcoming application.
What is the status of Activewebservice? Are people using it still? I see on github that there is a version that SORT of works with RoR 2.2.2 (my API works there anyway) but there are some buglets in it -- the first API call always fails, and every following call works. I have as part of my deploy script a small script that just calls an (unpublished but harmless) dummy function to "wake up" the API. Gross, and likely problematic once it is used by more than one person. I know the RoR developers have chosen REST, and I agree it is easier, but what of those who have to interface with real-world applications where we simply cannot dictate an API? --Michael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
