Cape Clear's WSDL/Schema
editor is free? I was under the impression that it was only available as
a component of their Cape Clear 4 product.
I
evaluated CC awhile back, and was impressed with Cape Clear
Studio...but found it cost prohibitive. Although we eventually chose a
different SOAP solution, I'd welcome the chance to work more with their WSDL
editor. Do you have a link to the free version you mention?
Thank
you.
