From: Doug du Boulay on 20 Jan 2010 19:56 Hi, I need to add a Web Service client to an existing project that uses an embedded Tcl-8.4 interpreter. This project already has a dependency on tDOM. There is no likelihood to upgrade Tcl to 8.5 where, as I understand it, the "dict" type was introduced (and made heavy use of in tclws). The server endpoint itself is actually a JDeveloper/Oracle based service that will be evolving. What I was hoping was that there would be a way to take the server's WSDL file and generate client side Tcl stubs that I could then use in the project I will be working with. Because of the existing tDOM dependence, I'm guessing my best option for creating a client is either tSOAP or tWSDL. But tWSDL seems to be oriented towards running web services in an AOLserver and I have no need for that. Maybe its possible to generate Tcl stubs from the WSDL using a more recent Tcl and use those in the older interpreter? I could really use some advice at this point! Thanks in advance Doug
