I'm RTFM-ing now, but one thing that concerns me, is that if I understand
this correctly, I need a web server to get responses back. Is this correct?
Nope. SOAP is just an API for sending and receiving packets of data
over the internet. Depending on how the services are set up, you
should be able to "consume" (send data and get responses) from a web
service set up by the other party (who likely has a web server to do
this) with a FoxPro app.
So I should be able to do this from my MS Server, which is not running a
web server, purely in VFP? This gives me hope! :-)
Which FMs are you reading? Rick Strahl's west-wind.com site has some
of the best references. There's also some good stuff on the Fox Wiki,
and in the archives here.
We purchased and installed WestWind client, precisely because it has
soap and xml classes in it. Started RTFM, but got hung up with
something, decided to take a break, and read the older MS "walkthrough"
That's when I started to get concerned. I think I'll switch back to
Strahl's and more recent documentation. Thanks!
