in reply to SOAP and Perl

SOAP::Lite is ... well Lite, it doesn't have the bells & whistles to provide a complete and robust framework for modern WS development.

One alternative is to build your SOAP message 'by hand' and POST them directly to the WS at the HTTP level, for instance using http://www.webinject.org/. It's workable, tho' hardly elegant.

    update
    PS: I scribbled down some notes (Windows .doc) on calling a .NET generated WS from Perl (using SOAP:Lite) some time ago, - at the very basic "Hello world" level.

    Actually the stub maker is a quite decent job if SOAP::Lite works. It made you really feel that you are calling the remote service as a method call, and you don't see the XML or SOAP. But unfortunately SOAP::Lite does not work (and the code the stub maker generates is based on SOAP::Lite).
