Using the EasySoap Web service engine
If you decide not to use
the .NET SOAP engine, PowerBuilder uses the EasySoap Web service
engine. Earlier releases of PowerBuilder supported the EasySoap
Web service engine only. Unlike the .NET Web service engine, the EasySoap
engine does not support the XML–type array datatype or
header sections in SOAP message envelopes. The EasySoap Web service
engine is retained for backward compatibility and for use with targets
deployed to UNIX machines.
You set the Web service engine that you want to use on the
first page of the Web Service Proxy Wizard or on the Web Service
tab of the Property sheet for a Web service project. The Use .NET
Engine check box is selected by default for new Web service projects.
You must clear the check box if you are developing a Web service
application that you intend to deploy to UNIX machines.
