Hi All,

I have a CAD application that uses Active X controls but I also need to
utilize web services so I am asking for help if I can build the Active X
in C++.NET and the web service classes in C#?

Thanks in advance,

Bob,

Yes, this is possible. What you would have to do is use the SOAP
toolkit. This is the toolkit that is used for unmanaged code to access web
services.

Hope this helps.
 
Hello Nicholas,

Are there any issues with building the ActiveX in unmanaged C++ and the
web services in managed C#?

Thanks for your help,

Robert,

No, there should not be. Both sides (the SOAP toolkit on the client,
and the .NET framework on the server) are meant to abide by published web
service specifications (not all the latest ones, like WS-Security, for
example), not some custom implementation.
