from my experience with xmethods.net VFP only works with a M$ server. I am
also looking for a workaround but have not found any. Are you behind a
firewall? Here at the hospital you will timeout with even a M$ server.

Subject: SOAP/WSDL help
Does anyone out there have experience with SOAP beyond the
Microsoft SOAP toolkit? I'm trying to create a WSDL file for a web
service on my server, and although it seems to me that I've followed the
spec, I can't register the service in VFP. Since the server is not a
.NET server or even a Windows server, the SOAP toolkit can't help.

I was just on the Universal Thread (http://www.universalthread.com) and in
their magazine there is an article by Alexanre Palma called Web Services for
the common VFP Developer. HTH!

I assume you using an Apple. So, I did search with Google.com for soap and
apple and actually found web sites that pertain to this subject. 8-)

Thanks, but VFP web services uses the Windows SOAP toolkit. I need
something more platform-independent.

The firewall isn't an issue, as I've copied the WSDL to the local
machine, and it still doesn't like it.

There are plenty of Mac-based SOAP solutions; in fact, SOAP was
first developed from XML-RPC on the Mac by a company called UserLand. I
use an old version of their product to run my website, and this doesn't
have SOAP capabilities built-in. Think of trying to run a VFP-based web
service using VFP 5.0 - you can do it, but you'll have to code
everything yourself.

I saw the first two, but missed the last. That looks promising for
debugging; I hope it will help me to get it to work with VFP 7.0 web
services.

If or when you get a handle on the basics (without the M$ wizards being
required ) I am sure that I am not the only one who would love to see some
same / white paper , outline of what is really envolved.
To me ...this whole wsdl stuff, is a realy mystry (but then again CSS's were
that way to me a few years ago)
