SOAP web service requests

SOAP builds on the general XML-RPC web service concept and provides a richer, albeit more complex, means for transferring typed data. SOAP web services typically provide a Web Service Description Language file (WSDL) that specifies the web service calls, data types, and service URL. While OpenFL does not provide direct support for SOAP, you can construct a SOAP XML message "by hand," post it to the server, and then parse the results. However, for anything except the simplest SOAP web service, you can probably save a significant amount of development time using an existing third-party SOAP library written in Haxe.
