Zsi interoperability

[Mailing List SVR]

Hi,

I have to implement a soap web services from wsdl, the server is
developed using oracle, is zsi or some other python library for soap
interoperable with oracle soa?

thanks

No idea, but I'd definitely try soaplib before ZSI.

I'm working on a project where I need to write a client for SOAP with
Attachments; I can see ZSI does not support it; is soaplib any better?

Can you argument your suggestion a little more?

Regards
Marco

I don't need soap attachments, I have some images but are base64 encoded
string, all other field are string, however my server require client
certificate authentication,

does soaplib or zsi work in this environment?

is really strange that there isn't a standard and well manteined
soap-1.2 implementation for python so we can talk without
interoperability issue with axis2,metro,cxf,oracle,.net ecc.. :-(

thanks

Never tried, but it's supposed to support it.

In any case, soaplib is easy enough to use to just give it a try and see if it
works for you.

The ZSI documentation (2.0) says that SOAP attachments are supported --
but I never tried it.

ZSI allows you to provide an alternative transport.
That's the usual way to let ZSI work over "https" rather than "http".

I do not know whether Python supports a client certificate authentication
transport out of the box -- but at least the problem is split into
two easier parts.

That's right; but if you look at the code, it seems like it is able to
create a server which behaves in that way, but not to create a client
for it. But I'm still exploring...

I can confirm that zsi (2.0) works fine in my environment:

- oracle soa, as soap server
- class generation from wsdl
- several complex types
- no soap attachments (I transfer image as base64 encoded string)
