I have a requirement from a client which wants to write a wrapper REST web service around a SOAP web service.
I am new to both SOAP and REST. Can anyone please let me know
If we can call SOAP web service inside a REST web service?
If yes, then how to do it in Jersey 2.0?
Thanks in advance.
Yes
There is nothing special about calling a SOAP service from inside a JAX-RS Resouce. Just write a JAX-WS client as described in the Java EE 7 Tutorial.

I want the gwt app to call a spring boot rest service with basic authentication which consumes and produces a json object and is deployed on a seperate server from the gwt app.
Any hints on how this can be done ?
There is a library called restygwt to easily define REST calls. I think there is an easy way to set the 'Basic' header.
I'm trying to proxy an SOAP EPR using API Manager.
I follow the procedure of creation of REST API "I have a SOAP End Point" and I provide the WSDL. but in the "design" tab i can't see the methods. Seems like API Manager "does not understand" the WSDL I provided.
I can browse The same WSDL and I used SOAPUI client, the WSDL is correct and I can see the methods and test them.
Does anyone exerienced this kind of issues with API Manager?
Best regards.
Before APIM 2.2.0 you will see only a single resource.
Enhanced support for exposing SOAP services as REST APIs by auto-generating the REST interface by parsing the WSDL of the SOAP Service was introduced in APIM 2.2.0.
I have a exe application written in VB6, now I want to make it support SOAP web service, so other clients can access the data it provided. I know vb.net can support SOAP web service well, I do not want to upgrade it to vb.net, how can I realize SOAP web service in VB6?
I went through http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-rs-client-api.html documentation but I am still not sure which type of rest client should be used in what use cases?
Can anyone point out the use cases / constraints with examples that would help me in choosing the right client API.
CXF 3.0 implement the JAXRS 2.0 client API, it makes your code can work with other JAXRS implementation without changing anything.
But if you are still using CXF 2.x, you need to chose between the Proxy Based API and WebClient API.
The Proxy Based API is much like the CXF JAXWS Client API, you can just invoke the service from a Proxy which implement the interface of SEI. It has some shortcomings, you cannot specify the http hears or write a generic client to invoke the different JAXRS services.
With the help of CXF WebClient API, you can invoke the JAXRS services in a normal HTTP client way, which just fill the gap of Proxy Based API.
You can find more information about those clients API here.
Is it possible to create SOAP web services (not client) over HTTP in C or C++, that respects the WSDL contract, using these Frameworks/libraries :
Apache CXF
Axis2/c
gSOAP
??
Thanks in advance :)
Apache CXF - No. It's written on Java and you can't write Web Services on C using CXF (JNI is not a good idea in this case).
Axis2/C - Yes! It's a Web service framework written on C. It's one of most powerful Web services frameworks for C. You can write Web services from scratch or generate it from WSDL. But it will be plain C and you may need to write extra code to start it working. To provide more convenient interface to Web services engine you may want to use some wrapper like WSO2 or Staff. For details please see my answer here.
gSoap - yes. It's not trivial but possible.
