Re: WSDL2RPG or not?

Sadly (due to IBM being "silly" there are not one but two utilities called wsdl2rpg.

I am assuming from what you say that you mean the IBM version.

Personally I find that is too complex a process and it "doesn't feel like RPG" at the end of the day.

I don't know if it has been updated, but when I was =doing it I found it much easier to use the WSDL2RPG version that generates HTTPAPI calls a much better bit.

When consuming SOAP web services, at what point is it advantageous to use WSDL2RPG versus creating the requests and handling the responses with HTTPAPI?

I ask because the WSDL is fairly complex and contains a lot of things I likely will never use. I may make 4-5 different calls for in-house use.

I've not used WSDL2RPG other than with the training examples.

Just looking for opinions.
