Using a webservice in Windows application

[Raja Yashwanth]

Hi all

I need to develope a web service that I should use in a windows based application.

This web service must be a layer that invokes one more webservice.Due to some security constraints I should use the URL path as https://webservice_name....
instead of
http://webservice_name....

this I should implement in which I need to develope( the above mentioned one).Can any one help me in How to reffer the URL as mentioned.

And one more doubt that how can I reffer a webservice in windows based application?(I application developed using VC++.Net).

You don't have to do anything special to call a web service via https.
Just write https instead of http in the url in your client code and it
should work, provided that the server is in fact configured for https.

In the Project, you select the option to Add a Web Reference, which pops
up a wizard in which you enter the url for the wsdl of your web service.
This works in C#, which is what this forum is about; I imagine that there
should be a similar option in C++.
