Hi ! I have searched far and wide, and found very little documentation about SOAP other then the W3C Specs or very similar doc. I am looking for something like a developer's/programmer's guide.
For my specific question : I have a hard time fully understanding the meaning/utility/implications of the SOAP actor attribute of the SOAP header. E.g. does the actor attribute apply to SOAP RPC services or is it for one-way messages only ? How does one specify intermediairies along the message path ? For what purposes can actors be used/ not be used ? Any SOAP implementations implementing the actor attribute, b.t.w. (Apache SOAP 2.2 seems not to) ? Any pointers very much appreciated, especially code examples ! As you see, I am not an expert with SOAP. We have been using servlet-based technology up until now, and plan on using web services in the (as near as possible) future. Thanks, M.
