Advanced Soap for Web Development (Advanced Web Professional) Book

With SOAP, developers have a universal "glue" for integrating virtually any distributed system, and streamlining any Internet-based process or communication. Advanced SOAP for Web Development is simply the fastest way for developers to master SOAP. This concise book teaches SOAP the way developers like to learn: hands-on, through real-world projects that focus on the key features developers will use most often. Coverage includes: mastering SOAP data types; understanding SOAP's use of HTTP; troubleshooting SOAP problems using its errors and faultcodes; using WSDL to describe Web Services; using UDDI and Disco to locate Web services; working with Remote Procedure Calls; and using SOAP's "smaller, faster brother," XML-RPC. Dan Livingston offers step-by-step, hands-on tutorials on setting up Web Services, SOAP servers and clients, Microsoft BizTalk servers, setting up Web Services, language binding, and more. Appendices compare SOAP with other distributed object technologies, preview its future, and list today's best tools for working with it.Read More
