SOAP 1.2 in .NET Framework 2.0

 

This article talks about SOAP 1.2 and a brief description of how to make SOAP 1.2 Web Services in .NET Framework 2.0.

Introduction

SOAP version 1.2 (SOAP) is a lightweight protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. It uses XML technologies to define an extensible messaging framework providing a message construct that can be exchanged over a variety of underlying protocols. The framework has been designed to be independent of any particular programming model and other implementation specific semantics.

The technological foundation that makes up Web services includes SOAP, the Web Service Description Language (WSDL), Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI), and XML. Specifically, SOAP provides a heterogeneous mechanism to allow the invocation and communication between Web services.

Some of the shortcomings of the SOAP 1.1 has been clarified, updated and corrected in SOAP 1.2. SOAP 1.2 contains a number of issues such as those on interoperability and ambiguities that resulted in differences of interpretation.

SOAP 1.1 is based on XML 1.0 and can only use HTTP POST headers to transmit SOAP messages. As a result, it isn't really suitable for wide-scale applications.

SOAP 1.2

SOAP 1.2 provides a tighter, more robust set of specifications based on an abstract model for binding protocols and XML serialization schemes. SOAP 1.2 also has been tested by a wide variety of participants, including IBM, Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, BEA systems, and the Apache Software Foundation. It has undergone many reviews and drafts and has seen a tremendous amount of public feedback. The W3C tested the interoperability of the specifications by successfully implementing seven projects.

SOAP 1.2 is now extensively documented in three parts: a Primer, Complete Messaging Framework, and Model and Optional Add-ins. SOAP 1.2 is now defined as an XML infoset, not XML syntax.

SOAP Version Information

• SOAP 1.1
  • Namespace Name
  • Spec Location
• SOAP 1.2
  • Namespace Name
  • Spec Location:
    • SOAP Version 1.2 Part 0: Primer
    • SOAP Version 1.2 Part 1: Messaging Framework
    • SOAP Version 1.2 Part 2: Adjuncts

Comparison between SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2

1. SOAP 1.1 is based on XML 1.0; SOAP 1.2 is based on XML Infoset.
2. In SOAP 1.2 it is left to the specification of a binding to an underlying protocol to specify the XML serialization used in the underlying protocol data units.
3. The HTTP binding specified in SOAP 1.2 uses XML 1.0 as the serialization format of the SOAP message infoset.
4. SOAP 1.1 allows additional elements to follow the SOAP Body element, SOAP 1.2 disallows these.
5. SOAP 1.1 has the actor attribute. In SOAP 1.2 this attribute is renamed to role. The semantics of the attribute are unchanged.
6. SOAP 1.2 adds two new predefined roles to the existing "Next" role in SOAP 1.1:
   • "None" for header blocks that should never be directly processed.
   • "Ultimate Receiver" for header blocks that should only be processed by nodes acting as the ultimate receiver of a message.
7. HTTP GET support

Carrying of a SOAP 1.1 message was discussed using only HTTP POST. SOAP 1.2 adds support for the use of HTTP GET in the SOAP HTTP binding. The semantics of HTTP GET are respected such that the action performed by SOAP endpoint responding to a request transmitted via HTTP GET should be both safe and idempotent.

Rules for dealing with SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 version interactions are as follows:

1. When a SOAP 1.2 message reaches a SOAP 1.1 node it will generate a SOAP fault containing a version mismatch.
2. When a SOAP 1.2 node receives a SOAP 1.1 message it can do one of the two things as stated below:
   • The node may process the SOAP 1.1 message.
   • It generates a Fault containing a Version Mismatch.

SOAP 1.2 in .NET Framework 2.0

The new ASMX runtime in .NET 2.0 supports SOAP 1.2. At this moment SOAP 1.1 is most widely being used in the industry. In the .NET Framework both SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 are supported. This means that the Web Services created in .NET Framework 2.0 will be configured to support both SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 messages. This indirectly means that the WSDLs thus created for the Web Service will have two types of bindings, i.e., SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2.

Hide   Copy Code

<wsdl:binding name="ServiceSoap12" type="tns:ServiceSoap">
<wsdl:binding name="ServiceSoap" type="tns:ServiceSoap">

Whether both these bindings have to be added to the web service can be configured by enabling or disabling them from the web.config file.

<configuration>
  <system.web>
    <webServices>
      <protocols>
        <remove name="HttpSoap12"/>
      </protocols>
    </webServices>
  </system.web>
</configuration>

 

Replace "HttpSoap12" with "HttpSoap" to remove the SOAP 1.1 binding.

The enumeration value must be one of the following: Unknown, HttpSoap, HttpGet, HttpPost, Documentation, HttpPostLocalhost, HttpSoap12, AnyHttpSoap.

Creating a SOAP 1.2 Web Service in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2

1. Click on “File—New—Web Site”.
2. Select folder “E:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebServices\WebSite1”.

   Here we can use IIS (then we need to specify HTTP in the Location dropdown list). Visual Studio 2005 supports internal server, thus IIS is not required. We can use the test server. It is known as the file system.

3. Select language as C#.
4. Open the Service.cs file.
5. Namespaces that are included are:
   Hide   Copy Code

   using System;
   using System.Web;
   using System.Web.Services;
   using System.Web.Services.Protocols;

6. Create a WebMethod:
   Hide   Copy Code

   [WebMethod]
   public long CheckBalance(int iAccountNo)
   {
       //Business Logic......
       //return balance
       return iBalance;
   }
   

7. Now edit the web.config file to allow or disallow various protocols used for invocation as described above.
8. Go to the WebService properties and turn off NTLM authentication.
9. Build the solution

Client Side

On the client side, WSDL.EXE generates SOAP 1.1 proxy code by default. There is a /protocol command line option to WSDL.EXE that allows you to specify which version to use. /protocol:SOAP generates a SOAP 1.1 client and /protocol:SOAP12 generates a SOAP 1.2 client:

The System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol class that is used as the base class of the generated client proxies has a new property SoapVersion. This is set to SoapProtocolVersion.Soap12 to indicate that SOAP 1.2 should be used. The correct binding name is also chosen from the WSDL.
