I want to learn to implement web services using soap in php. I also want to utilize the service using java client. I am interested in soap protocol and if there is some othere better protocol.
My research: I got many online tutorials on implementing web service using soap in php. I also got greate content on soap protocol.
My question: How to utilize that service using java client? Is it possible? Can you refer me to tutorial which serves my need? Is there any good book that i can purchase. I also want to know how can a php soap server authenticate a java client. Is authentication done for each request or maintaining session is possible.
By definition:
Web Services have been designed to support interoperable Machine to Machine interaction over a network.
So consuming a web service is independent of the implementation technology of the web service, now you can search for "implement a Java based SOAP client" on SO.
