I want to build a Web Services client against an existing
server. My aim at the moment is to get a Cocoa/Web-Service
version of Hello World. It is not clear to me that there is
any way for this project to benefit from any of the Web
Objects project starts offered, but I'd love to be wrong.
I have used WSMakeStubs to generate Objective-C stubs from
the WSDL. I imagine I'd need to compile the stubs into a
library, and get Xcode to build a Cocoa app that's linked
with that library. Being mostly familiar with Make, and
having had the experience that tools like Eclipse, IDEA, and
perhaps Xcode, make hard things easy and easy things hard, I
ask the list if there are any gotchas or secret handshakes I
should be aware of before I go tromping off into the woods.
There already exists a Java library of the needed client-side
functions, but I gather there's no good way to call those
given the demise of the Cocoa-Java bridge. But I'd love to
be wrong about that too.
Thanks.
