Part 3. Case Study: A Web-Based Auction System
SOAP appears to be a very beneficial technology, but can you really use it to build cross-platform applications? Yes, you can. This case study shows the construction of an application that uses Java, Visual Basic, and C#. It runs on UNIX, Windows, and .NET. The various pieces use SOAP to communicate with each other, providing easy interoperability. The case study uses three of the most popular SOAP toolkits: Apache SOAP, Microsoft SOAP Toolkit v2, and .NET's SOAP implementation.
