The short version is: I use SOAP templates ! (like a lot of people out there) In order to use SOAP properly you need a full namespace aware xml parser, a xml schema parser, a WSDL parser plus code generator and the will to abuse HTTP completely . Even if you build a perfect tool you'll maybe face the not so perfect responses from the remote side. So my strategy with SOAP since years is (advizable only if there isn't a huge API with a huge variance of parameters): - Create all needed SOAP calls with any tool and snapshot them - build a small templating tool to insert values - send the snippet with every misguided header/setup the remote side needs to operate - take the response and first thing is strip off SOAP envelope - parse the xml and use pastell or something like that to query values to build objects (using it this way even has a name to make it look more professional. It is called document oriented SOAP :) ) Sounds hackish? Sounds stupid? Yes, you are right, it is. But it is by far less stupid as SOAP is. Sorry but I had to write this :) Norbert

You mention in its design specification that it will be cross platform. Is that the case as this stage? I'm not sure if I follow Jenkins logs properly but there seems only a Linux job running. btw, Are there any plans for PharoLauncher to help report VM bugs? Eliot once mentioned on [vm-dev] that the best VM bug reports provide a launch script that reproduces the VM crash. The PharoLauncher could monitor VMs that don't close cleanly, and then lead the user through generating such a script. Then at the click of a button, the script, VM and image can be packaged up for submitting to a bug tracker. Much further down the line, PharoLauncher might even enable a VM flag to log all UI events from which a crash-script could be generated. cheers -ben > Smalltalkhub > - check my previous fixes (with Nicolas Petton) > - add features and fix many issues > (http://code.google.com/p/smalltalk-hub/issues/list) > > Traits > - mentoring Sebastian Tleyle for improving both trait implementation > and browsing support > > Command line interface > - implement the "--save" option in both Pharo 2.0 and Pharo 3.0 that > should be used for all "eval" scripts on the command line instead of > using "Smalltalk snapshot: true andQuit: true" > > ### What's next, until 2013-06-16 (*): > > probably nothing as I won't have time.

SOAP in Pharo

by Johan Brichau

Hi, I have the distinguished pleasure of needing to interface with a SOAP service from within Pharo Smalltalk. Currently taking a look at SoapOpera and iWSDL projects on Squeaksource. These projects seem to be unchanged since 2010 and broken in Pharo 1.4 Probably I will be spending some time to bring these to life again in current Pharo, but if anyone has some better pointers to use, please let me know. cheers Johan
