Posted: Thu Feb 17, 2005 3:00 pm Post subject: creating SOAP service in C++Builder |
|
|
Hi,
We have an existing application, created using C++Builder 5. We need to
connect remote PDA (Windows Mobile) applications to it and we consider
to do this using SOAP; our app would become the SOAP server. The SOAP
service should be standalone, not requiring IIS or Apache.
I assume we can upgrade to Cppb6 Enterprise. Does this allow us to
create *standalone* SOAP services? I read a tutorial for this using
Delphi7 and TIdHttpWebBrokerBridge, but I doubt whether this will work
in Builder6? And how good is SOAP service support in general in Cppb6?
We're a bit hesitant to upgrade to builder6, which is outdated already.
Are there any third-party components that we might use instead to build
a SOAP server in builder5? Or any ideas for alternative solutions to get
the connectivity?
Thanks for any advice!
Bob

Works fine for me. I've written several SOAP applications using
C++Builder 6, and also the chapter on SOAP and Web Services with BizSnap
for the "Borland C++Builder 6 Developer's Guide" (see
[url]http://www.drbob42.com/books/BCB6.htm)[/url].
I've also written about it in the September 2002 issue of C++Builder
Developer's Journal (in case you're a subscriber), see
http://bcbjournal.org/get_doc.php?art=subscribers/articles/vol6/0902/September02-02.htm
And you can get a dynamic paper on SOAP and DataSnap at

Bedankt Bob! Your articles will be very helpful and I've subscribed to
bcbjournal.
One question I still have: what about the possibility of creating
standalone SOAP services, not requiring Apache or IIS? I've seen a
tutorial for Delphi 7 using an Indy component, but I'm not sure whether
this is possible in CB6. Any ideas?
Thanks a lot
Bob

I've never tried this with C++Builder 6, sorry.
