Hi All,

I work for a commercial software company. Our product is a business software 
that is developed in C++ and runs on various platforms : Solaris, Linux, 
WIndows-32-bit, AIX, HP-UX-Itanium. The C++ compiler we use is vendor supplied, 
not g++. For example in Windows, we use VC++, on AIX, we use xlC. Our customer 
has exposed some web services (WSDL) that we need to make calls to. So I 
basically need a portable C++ Soap client solution for all these platforms. 

I am open to C as well as C++ solutions for the web services calls. I guess 
Axis2 is more mature than Axis ? The WSDL the customer has given is non-trivial 
with complex types and arrays of complex types. Given that I need a solution 
that works on many platforms as mentioned above, and also I want latest 
jira-fixes that have been made, which one would you recommend ? Axis cpp or 
Axis2/C ?

I tried playing with axis-c-1.6b-Win32-trace-bin binaries on windows and got 
hello world/calculator examples to work, but had some problems with using my 
customer's WSDLs. I posted the problems on this forum earlier. It was suggested 
to me to pick up latest source and build it. Here are the links for C++ I 
found, but they appear old : http://ws.apache.org/axis/cpp/download.html -  Can 
someone please point me to the latest ? Thanks a lot.

For Axis2/C : I guess this link is the correct one to pick up from ? 
http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/download.cgi

Am I right in saying that Axis CPP or Axis2/C has not been ported to HP-UX yet 
? 

I would really appreciate your replies. 

Thanks a lot. 

- B
