Andre, Do you already have a some kind of demo stack from which I (and other interested persons on this list) can take a look at and learn from it? Just to get me started, if it is to confidential to share with the world, please contact me off-list, I'm really interested in what you did...

Calling webservices from RR

Hi, Has anyone experience with using Windows Webservices from within Revolution applications and interacting with them? If not directly, maybe via altBrowser? Before I start testing en getting specs from the developers of these Webservices, it would be nice to know if I can use them...

Hi, I had the same problem. I search in internet, and everything I found was an unofficial stack (it seems old...) to use soap. So I reached this conclusion: I use RunRev power to manage xml (not soap), then I create a jsp page (or javabean) in a Java server which will act as a service broker. So

Hi There folks, welcome to the Revolution. As a matter of fact Rev can do webservices, any webservices you want as long as you can code. It's not as simply as some languages where you drop a WSDL file and all the methods are added. There are libraries for SOAP and XML-RPC. The SOAP

Sorry Andre, you agree, RunRev can manage xml. But as you know, soap is not easy to be coded, even if you have powerful xml tools. But since soap is becoming much famous, I think Runtime Revolution company should provide a tested library (a lot of client and server programming languages already

Doesn't the built-in xmlrpc stuff in Rev work quite well? Or does it just need a better abstraction layer to make it more usable? On Nov 18, 2005, at 4:12 PM, Andre Garzia wrote: and yes, libraries should be supplied. ~~ Dan Shafer, Information

Dan, the xml-rpc works fine, anything more we need, it's easy to code on top. There's no SOAP though, and no server side libraries, but third parties can provide that in the future. Cheers andre On Nov 18, 2005, at 10:54 PM, Dan Shafer wrote: Doesn't the built-in xmlrpc stuff in Rev work

Andre- I have to say the documentation on the xmlrpc functions leaves something to be desired. For example, the description of the following functions simply says More details to come: revXMLRPC_DeleteParam revXMLRPC_Execute revXMLRPC_Free revXMLRPC_Free (apparently it's an alias for itself)
