if ur consuming a 3rd party api that doesn't do xml right its probably because they're a fad/p-langer and they cant generate proper xml anyways.

nope.

usually java or c#, often a soap wrapper around a terminal interface

yeah but its the underlying shitfest from the terminal that the problem, not the soap in the java or c#. using shells for poo poo is worse than p-langs.

sperglords would complains about stupid poo poo and say that xhtml is contradictory, for example
code:
<input>something</input>
which the solution is ignore it becoz it's not supposed to be there. but sperglords.

it seems not making GBS threads yourself at the first bump in the document is an advantage for html

the software I work on uses json to send data to an ios app and xml for interacting with old systems we don't have control over and they both work okay I guess ??? :shrug: We have never had any problems with json itself and I have only had problems with xml because I didn't know what I was doing at first

soap is not http dependent so building http stuff into the protocol would be bad

soap is mapped to http as if it were a socket. it's dumb. soap puts all the headers inside the message instead of outside.

about as helpful as zipping an mp3

you can hookup a test client to debug a soap service as long as the wsdl is published.

this also needs to be fixed

this sort of correctness versus worse-is-better is always gonna happen when humans need to store information in a digital system

i just like the idea of webpage as API, and instead of just CSS and poo poo for client-side customization you could use xslt too

that's because soap is not http only so it cannot rely on http features.

wsdl publishing should deffo be a spec requirement, tho

tbh I would love to see an evolution of soap that fixes a lot of stuff, but its still the best we've got for now.
