Yup! 'Web Services' is just RPC running on an inefficient transport protocol running on an inefficient link protocol, with no mechanism for credential or transaction propogation, and 'best effort' levels of QOS. Oh, by the way - Web Services also exposes a lot of the detail of the protocol to the programmer, just to really piss off the people who though writing then compiling IDL was a pain in the ass. Now, of course, you get to choose between compiling or generating the IDL, which is so chock full of fun little XML quirks as to be unreadable by normal humans anyway.
Bah! The more that things change, the more they get worse. -danch Bill Burke wrote: > What I've been saying all along... > > "People have been building Web services under different names for 20 or 30 > years," he explains.
