gSOAP was created as an accessible and cross-platform development toolkit. gSOAP can be used to develop C / C++ server and client web service apps. The toolkit manages to simplify the overall use of XML.
gSOAP is a package that comes with support for SOAP 1.1/1.2 RPC encoding and document/literal styles, WSDL 1.1 and MTOM/MIME/DIME attachments.
Furthermore, this useful toolkit also offers support for SOAP-over-UDP, request-response, one-way messaging and WS-Addressing / WS-Security.
Here are some key features of "gSOAP":
· XSD schema C/C++ type binding means XML and C/C++ data is type safe
· XML streaming auto-serialization of C/C++ data, with optional use of DOM
· ML data binding tools for C/C++
· XML-RPC from/to JSON from/to C/C++ serialization (also in streaming mode)
· RES T HTTP(S) 1.0/1.1 operations (GET,PUT,POST etc) for XML, JSON, etc
· WS-I Basic Profile 1.0a, 1.1, and 1.2 compliant
· RSS 0.91, 0.92, 2.0 XML support
· WS-Policy 1.2, 1.5 and WS-SecurityPolicy 1.2 compliant
· WS-ReliableMessaging compliant
· WS-Discovery support
· UDDI v2 API
· NTLM authentication
· HTTP basic and digest authentication
· SSL/TLS communications with SSL session caching (OpenSSL or GNUTLS)
· Proxy and proxy authentication support
· Compression (HTTP(S) compression and zlib)
· Apache 1.x and 2.0 modules
· IIS (ISAPI) and WinInet modules
· CGI and FastCGI support
· WSDL/XSD conversion to C or C++ and vice versa
· Stand-alone Web server included (multithreaded, SSL, compression)
· Integrated memory management with deallocation and leak detection
· IPv4 and IPv6 suppor ted, TCP and UDP
· Plug-ins for additional capabilities
· Internationalization/localization support (UTF8, UCS4, MB encodings, etc)
· Auto-test server code generation for (dummy) server testing
· Automatic XML document and message generation from WSDL and XSD
· C/C++ (cyclic) object graph auto-serialization (with SOAP id-href encoding)
· STL container auto-serialization and custom C++ container auto-serialization
· Over 40 example client and server applications included
