| A point-to-point connection that a client can use for sending messages
directly to a remote party (represented by a URL, for instance).
The SOAPConnection class is optional. Some implementations may
not implement this interface in which case the call to
SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance() (see below) will
throw an UnsupportedOperationException.
A client can obtain a SOAPConnection object using a
{@link SOAPConnectionFactory} object as in the following example:
SOAPConnectionFactory factory = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
SOAPConnection con = factory.createConnection();
A SOAPConnection object can be used to send messages
directly to a URL following the request/response paradigm. That is,
messages are sent using the method call, which sends the
message and then waits until it gets a reply. |
