Hi Alan,
Welcome to ASPNET newsgroup.
As for Xml Webservice, it is a distributed component technology which reply
on transporting data through XML text format over network. So this nature
has determined that we could not serialize webservice Message as binary
format like other distribute components( DCOM, remoting..). Also, the Soap
Binary formatter is provided for some other .net specific distribute
component like .net remoting.... As far as I know, for transfering
binary data, currently the .NET WebService Enchancement 3 (targeting .NET
framework 2.0) has provided some support (MTOM) for embeded binary data in
SOAP message which is serialized as binary format(not the normal base64
format....) , this can help reduce the overload of tranmiting binary data
over WEBService....

| Hi,
|
| I have my web service up and running, but I would like to work with SOAP
| binary formatters. How difficult is to switch both web service client and
| server from SOAP XML formatter to SOAP binary formatter?
|
| Could you refer me to any article that explains how to change the SOAP
| formatter for a web service?
|
| Any help would be appreciated,
| Alan
