[Exist-open] XQuery / SOAP support

[Jaroslav P. <jar...@fi...>]

  Dear community, dear Adam

I am very enthusiastic about developing with eXist but could not really figure out
whether following tasks are supported out of the box. Could you please provide me
with some code examples (how to instantiate, configure and exchange data) ?

   1) exposure of server-side XQueries via WSDL/SOAP

   Adams "SOAPServer" [1] does exactly this, but unlike stated in [1] it is not part of
   the tools dir and there seems to be no documentation than [2].

   2) making SOAP requests out of XQueries, e.g. via Axis2 client

   The library should take care of packaging the payload provided by the XQuery,
   WS-invocation ... Using http:post() would require tailoring the envelope manually
   etc. There was a related request in 2007 [3], I am wondering whether this has
   changed in meanwhile ?

   3) suggestions for a possible architecture for making asynchronous calls via 2)

  Many thanks!
   Jaro
