7.7. Summary
In this chapter, you learned how to use SOAP headers to extend the SOAP protocol by sending extra information in request and response messages and indicating whether those headers are required. You also learned how to communicate error information in a standard way using <soap:Fault> so that Web service clients on any platform can access this error information.
The next chapters build on this knowledge and discuss common tasks such as handling relational and structured data in Web services and more advanced tasks such as extending .NET Web services Framework using SoapExtensions.
