My first Web Service

Hello,

can you guys help me out here....?

this is part of my masters degree and hence is very important to
me..... my supervisor doesn't seem to be too interested in helping me
and infact is on holiday as we speak.

ok here's my question.....

can a web page be a client of a web service? if so....what language
would the web page be written in? can it be a normal html page, or
does it have to be written in xml or maybe even a server scripting
language?

assuming that a web page can interact with a web service......ho w
would the page locate the interface of the service(assumin g this had
been direct publication of the interface) ? and how would it go
through the interface and make sense of it in order to bind the web
service so that it can then use it?

thanks for all help rendered.

Dan
the question "how do i create a web service?" is a broad question.

to answer your first question - yes...a web page can access a web serivice.
The web service would be harbored in a web server for communication (you can
also use ftp and smtp).

you can create the web service using any language that can talk soap -
ranging from C++ to perl. Once deployed to the web server - you have some
mean of connecting to the web service (i.e. URL) For an example...using
JSP - you would use the SOAP API to send the request to the service. I
suggest for you to grab a book - many langs support SOAP...it's up to you
how complex you want to make it.

I'm programming a site that displays info from AWS Commerce Service 4.0. At each change of the asp.net application the first load of a page that uses the web service takes 30 seconds. Subsequent calls are snappy. From what I've learned this overhead is for processing the wsdl file (which has of course not changed). The file is large, 2200 lines. Is there a way to use this file locally on the web server or cache the result of the...

Every time I make any .NET framework based webservice consumer I have the same problem: The first call my application makes to consume a webservice takes about 15 seconds. Subsequent calls are very fast. What is happening during this initial delay, and is there anything I can do to fix this so my applications start up quickly? For example, typically the first call to consuming a webservice is some sort of 'login / authenticate'...

Overview When the first call to our Web Service causes an exception, the Web Service caches that user's credentials for its life time. Details We have a Web Service which uses Windows Authentication. Within the Web Service we look at the current username and check which user Groups it belongs to.

The web service is called by a program running on pocket pc. When to call the web service, the first call is still ok, but for the second or later calls, it will throw "403 Forbidden" WebException. When to test it using the web interface on pocket IE, everything is fine. Before there was no such problem, it only happened within a week or so. I suspect it's caused by the server's firewall settings, but how come the first call is ok? This...

Hi John, Hopefully this post will find its way back to you - or perhaps be answered by someone else. As I mentioned in my last post on the earlier portion of this thread, changing the serialization settings for the build handled the initial slows we encountered when invoking the web service. Since that time, we ported the original VB.net code over to C# - this was done to make it cleaner easier to include the project in the rest of...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
