I suppose SOAP was wrapped up in the whole Service Oriented Architecture thingy that was going on then. The faculty at my university were... sceptical of the approach so I suppose I was in an environment that wasn't going to be pro SOAP when it came along.
- lolive 9y agoSOAP ensures that the service definition, the client implementation and the server implementation are fully synchronized. And types are fully transmitted. (except for collections and null, sic!) How can you do that otherwise? PS: i agree that WADL or Swagger can do something similar, more elegantly than SOAP. But can we agree that there is a real need to enforce the coherence between the client and the server ?
