I think I've tracked it down to a third-party script but it'll take a little experimenting to be definite. Stay tuned. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP

Thanks! I'll look into that! onwards and upwards...

The problem I'm having is transferring large amounts of text back to the calling C# function. FORTRAN seems to prefer fixed-length mechanisms. Sometimes the response will be 10 characters... sometimes it will be 10,000 characters. :~

Security is a problem associated with an era, not a specific product. Not that long ago, security was not much of an issue, because few networks were interconnected, as they are today. There are just as many security problems in other products than Windows XP. It's just that the user base of Windows XP is so much bigger than for any other operating system, there's no "incentive" in attacking such systems. Good music: In my rosary[^]

I don't think C++ will die but I do expect it to be used more in areas in which it is strong, rather than as the first choice for a run-of-the-mill business application. This will especially be the case on MS platforms, as they move towards WinFX as the primary API. Perhaps the C++ that gets used will tend to be C++/CLI rather than unmanaged C++. It may be different on Linux, etc. Perhaps it will be more Java, or even Mono. Novell's iFolder x-platform file sharing app. is written in Mono. But let's see what the situation is in the next 10 years. Kevin

Oh believe me!! I have no regrets in dropping it. It's just troublesome porting to a new one, but we will gain OS portibility and license free development in the new move. :) _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

Interesting.. Why would the want to limit it I wonder. Presumably MS will be selling the cluster version at a lower price than Web Edition, Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition. After all, I'd guess that you'll need one licence per compute cluster node. The aim is to create inexpensive compute clusters, not to undercut the existing editions. If you want IIS, Domain Controller, Infrastructure or File/Print Server capabilities, you need to pay for them. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Thanks for directing me, Jon. I never even knew that was here on the site!  onwards and upwards...

The job market here is great! All you have to decide is whether you'd rather flip burgers, rent videos, or pound nails. Personally, I'd go for the burger option, as the kitchen is usually cooler than outdoors in summer, and you can count on stealing at least one meal a day. That can make the difference, given what they pay people here, in affording the bill for air conditioning. Heard in Bullhead City - "You haven't lost your girl - you've just lost your turn..." [sigh] So true...

Yes there are some editors out their. But last time I looked they did not finish the job, in creating the base code. I will state that it has been awhile, so I guess it is time for me to look again. I will see how much free time I have, given it my daughters birthday, it may not be much this weekend. I had looked at CapeSciences (July 2003) but had a legal issue. If my memory is correct having to use gSOAP to finish the task was a show stopper. I also found a second option (do not remember the name but also was a GPL lic issue.) So I did leave off a NO GPL restriction in my environment. Do not remember if it was CapeScience or one of the others but it was very irritating to have to jump to a dos shell and run some JAVA apps to do part of the processing. I do have my standards. :rolleyes: Altova's WSDL is new. It had been looked at but found a flaw in it's handling of attributes but that was also 2 version ago and not revisited. It does state external tools to create the stub code to build on also. Your third link just goes back to CapeScience. So, Ok I need to back and reevaluate, the world may have changed some in the last year. The missing part was (non-Java, non-GPL) clean code generation. Marc Clifton wrote: If they are, maybe I'll write one to suit your needs. You had started on one, Right? <update> Well thanks to some serious heart burn I was able to look over some options. Here is my 2 cents: 1) CapeScience is the same as that I looked at last July. At the time was the best editor but did not complete the job I wanted with my enviroment restrictions. For others it may be fine. 2) XMLSPY has several new feature but, I just hate the interface. It is simply not intuitive. It should be obvious how to add a child element. I simply do not find this to be the case. Also I do not like the graphics display not including the element attributes. For some of my documentation I must have this. Ok I am picky but it is my money and choice. 3) Stylus Studio has also added some new feature. One from reading the web site does not create a WSDL, but it does allow configuration of the service and supports .net and Apache Ant. SO that may be totally satisfactory for me. I have an older version (4). Need to take a c

No serious business website should ever require a plug-in (flash). Under any circumstances!!!!!! If it does then your designers don't know anything about making a serious business web site and should stick to personal home pages etc etc. ------------

Thank you both ;)
