Consuming Webservice

[=?Utf-8?B?UmFqaXY=?=]

Hi,

I have a webservice developed using asp.net(c#), which is beign consumed by
oracle PL/SQL client. I have tested my webservice code using a asp.net test
client page and everything seems to be working OK.

But the client is having some problem with some specific requests for which
they have sent me the SOAP message. Is there any way, wherein I can use this
SOAP message directly to test my webservice(without the use of proxy class).

Thanks & Regards,
Rajiv

Certainly. You can write a test harness which reads the XML file, then uses
the WebRequest/WebResponse classes to send the SOAP to the service and
receive the response. Your test harness can then write the result to a file,
where you can examine it.

Thanks for the reply, John.

Is there some sample code that I can refer to for the Test harness?

Thanks again.

Take a look at the MSDN documentation on WebRequest. It will give you a
start. See
