Matevž Gačnik's Weblog

I managed to get web services up and running on my Mono machine. This proves it.

What I dislike about the current implementation is obvious:

• There's no WSDL generator yet (can't use wsdl.exe or any other web services proxy generator tools)
• There's no proxy class generator yet (wsdl.exe in our world)
• URLs seem to be case sensitive

My install uses the latest Mono bits and a primitive web server (XSP), which hosts the Mono ASP.NET runtime.

I tested this stuff using WebServicesStudio, which can generate proxies and SOAP messages. I used .NET web service implementation to generate the proxy and then sent SOAP messages to Mono implementation.

All in all, I'm quite surprised. Mono's latest development advances are a huge step forward.
