RE: [WebDNA] WSDL Wizzard
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2009
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 102168
interpreted = N
texte = Is it written in 100% webdna? How about just posting it up for the community to look at and expand? I'm happy to peek at the code to see if I can get it to work. -----Original Message----- From: Stuart Tremain [mailto:webdna@idfk.com.au] Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 4:42 PM To: talk@webdna.us Subject: Re: [WebDNA] WSDL Wizzard When I first saw it and tried it I loved the concept !! Then it stopped working, I asked and asked and asked and got no response :( I believe that it would be a very useful tool, an edge for you to use as a "we are great because ...." argument. Using these tools provides developers far greater integration possibilities and therefore greater ability to stay with WebDNA and promote it rather than go to PHP where the same type of service can be found in many different places. There are many services out there that have PHP, ASP flavours etc, ever found one that says "Click here for the WebDNA" version ? A tool like this is often the way to create a WebDNA version without having to spend hours working it out myself. Please at least have a look at it, but don't keep it for the EE version- have it on ALL versions ! Use it to promote and build on the great product that you have. I would also love to see an expansion of the XML tools or a simpler way of dealing with XML within WebDNA, at the moment the docs are confusing and developing applications based around imported XML can be very tedious.
