How to get started on SOAP service on Windows Phone 7? - soap

Hey guys, I'm a student that is trying to develop a Windows Phone 7 app that uses a free web service that can be accessed via SOAP protocol. They have the web service address and the .wsdl address.
I'm pretty confused since all that I've seen mentions .asmx instead of .wsdl, can somebody point me to the right direction to start implementing the web service usage in my app?
Thanks in advance

WSDL is the standard for SOAP-based web service description. It's an xml-based description of webservices that allows client proxy code generation across platforms. ASMX is just an extension for a webservice page. They're separate entities.

you have to use the web services provide by the your php developers team they develop the response in XML or JSON format which you access in your app by using NSXML parser or JSON parsing.
First you want to create a web service for your application. You can use PHP for this purpose.
Then you can call that web service from your Objective-C code.
The below links will help.
a. You can refer to NSMutablerequest class reference for more information on creating a web service request.

Web service integration with iphone

I want to create iphone native app. which will use web service.Could any one tell me how many languages is supported by apple for web service. And which the best in performance ??
Your web service implementation is completely independent from your iPhone native app. Apple does not care what language you implement your web service in.
However, your web service client (i.e.: your iPhone app) must be written in Objective-C.
Simple Object Access Protocol is a webservice multi-platform language, and its the default for web services.
In a SOA these problems are addressed. Because the need to communicate with services that are not in the same programming language is something that happens normally. And there appears the SOAP protocol to normalize it.
This is independent from your iPhone.

Using a secure web service from iPhone with SOAP

I'm trying to get secure web service connectivity on the iPhone over https via SOAP. Currently have http working with NSMutableURLRequest but it doesn't appear to support https. Any ideas what to use to get the secure web service access and processing I'm after?
Any help appreciated // :)
Use gSOAP. It's a C/C++ library providing fast and secure access to web services; you can even develop your own. Even though it's not natively supporting Objective C, it's still IMHO the best open source web services library. Additional information and download can be found here
