Can I do a web service as pure xml (no RPC stuff at all)?

[David Thielen <da...@windward.net>]

Hi;

 

Is there a way (both java and C#) to do a web service so it's pure xml. What
I want is:

1.	The wsdl gives a min and max value for attributes that are an enum -
but if that attribute is not passed at all, it's ok because I have a default
value.
2.	I have 2 soap attachments - that are not files but are very large
blocks of data (they are passed to me as input streams).

 

And I then just process the xml in the soap body and the 2 attachments.

 

It seems to me this should be doable, but nothing really talks about it.

 

Thanks - dave

I also have a similar question in which I want to build and deploy a
webservice in axis that are proprietary xml messages flowing between the
servers, no SOAP Encoding.

Please help.

Thanks.
Samir

Use the messaging API. It transforms the SOAP body contents into a DOM. You
can then process it as you like.
