Features: With the advancement of W3 standardization, the technical standards of SOAP will continue to be supplemented and improved. Changes and developments in computer and network technology occur daily. However, this should not be a reason for us not to try and use SOAP technology in our application software. Things will definitely change, and standards will be modified, but this will be a gradual process from quantitative change to qualitative change. Each modification will not be significant, and the corresponding SOAP products will hide the relevant details internally, without affecting our actual applications. As a communication protocol that integrates various computer technologies, SOAP can be implemented in multiple programming languages on various operating systems and computer platforms. This book introduces the XML-related content necessary for using SOAP, focuses on the technical standards of SOAP, a simple SOAP client and server, and extensively covers the development and implementation process of a large-scale SOAP application running on UNIX and Windows operating systems. The content is detailed and the examples are thoroughly explained. Many chapters include exercises to help readers better master the knowledge of related topics. The accompanying CD-ROM includes all the resource code and a complete implementation of an online auction system.
