Title: Using SOAP

Kam,

 

Hmmmm... that's a good question.  We're using SOAP for a few applications at work, but our clients just drop SOAP messages over an HTTP connection.

 

If you want to do this stuff from a ASP (which I have no experience with), I'd think you'd have to call into Java via COM.  If the Apache SOAP API's are Java 1.1 compatible, you should be able to do it.

 

Can't you replace your ASP with JSP?  Then you can call into the Apache toolkit directly...

Thanks Chris. I was reading documentation of Apache SOAP and I got an impression that we need to use Apache SOAP client API's (implemented using Java classes) on client side as well. So if my ASP is a SOAP client, how can I access this Java APIs from it?

Kam,

 

The only way that comes to mind is to use a Servlet that knows how to parse a posted SOAP message.  When the Servlet receives the message and parses it, it can use its RequestDispatcher object to forward() the call to a particular JSP.

Hi,

Any idea how can I invoke JSP from a ASP page using SOAP?

Thanks,
Kam
