Summary

Web Services are a powerful new tool in distributed computing, using open standards and existing infrastructure to enable interoperation within and between different platforms.

In this chapter, we showed you how to create a simple Web Service and the Client to use this service. We demonstrated the steps required to deploy this server and to set up the client's THTTPRIO component properly. At this point, you should be familiar enough with developing Web Services in greater complexity. You can examine many more examples of Web Services on Borland's community site. One that we highly recommend is “Managing Sessions with Delphi 6 Web Services.” This article was written by Daniel Polistchuck (Article ID: 27575) and can be read at http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,27575,00.html ...
