Hi, I also endorsed Pan's concern. We are using GT4.X since some years now and it is always frustrating to request the deployment of a whole GT at our client sides, just because of it is almost impossible to isolate the needed libraries.
I never asked about this to the list, but I'm now a bit surprised to learn that also Globus people does not exactly know which ones are needed. I thing this is a very common problem. May be it is time to have a minimal distribution of GT libs just to allow GT-based services to be contacted from any non-GT client, isn't it? best, manuele On Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 10:57 AM, #PAN KE# <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It is a common usage that GT4 services are defined and deployed at the > server side while clients on other machines invoke the services without > installation of GT4 or the java WS core.
