I used an older version of their web services and 1.1 as released is not a viable option. I have used Apache XML-RPC to access salesforce.com's API but I basically used 2.0 which is still pre-alpha. If you want to look into it check out cvs HEAD and look for the CommonsXmlRpcClient. I posted an example usage to this list a month or two ago. Unfortunately, that's the real unstable branch.
IIRC they have an SDK with a java client for their API, and they also offer a SOAP wrapper for their service. You might try those options.

Hi all,
A project I'm working on uses the salesforce.com web services[1]. In order to use their XML-RPC interface I need to be able to specify the content of the "Cookie" HTTP request header (the value of which is specified by the return from an initial login).
Is there any way of doing this in the 1.1 release? I know that towards the end of 2002 Ryan Hoegg was looking at integrating the commons HttpClient to isolate the HTTP level. Did this ever get anywhere?
For various political reasons, using an unstable branch (i.e. 1.2) isn't a solution for me at the moment.
Thanks,
Phil
