SOAP (C#): WSDL binding protocol type

Question

Hi,

I am working on how to call a web service dynamically using SOAP (language c#). For this purpose, my program gets the WSDL and parses it to create the SOAP request.

How can I assure that a web service supports the SOAP protocol by looking at WSDL?

Thanks,
Asif

Solution 1

The bindings section in the WSDL file should tell that.

yepp
you should at least s.th. like <soap:binding transport="http://some/URI/blabla" xmlns:soap="#unknown"></soap:binding>

BTW
you should have a look at ServiceReferences. There's no need to parse WSDL

Yes. But OP is doing parsing all by himself. Not sure why though.

I wrote this for OP, hoping he reads the comment.
Didn't want to give a solution with just one sentence :)

Solution 2

Thanks for replying.

mjbohn yes that is the only clue that you have mentioned(<soap:binding transport="http://some/URI/blabla" xmlns:soap="#unknown"></soap:binding>). Which will verify support of SOAP protocol by a web service.
