Groovy SOAP

SOAPSOAP is a lightweight protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. Groovy has a SOAP implementation based on 
Xfire which allows you to create a SOAP server and to make calls on remote SOAP servers.

The Server

You can develop your web service using a groovy script and/or a groovy class. The following two groovy files are valid for building a web-service.

1. MathService.groovy
2. You can also using something more Groovy
3. Then the easy part ... no need for comments
   That's all !
4. Oh ... you want to test it ... two more lines.
5. You're done!

The Client

It's pretty easy to make the remote calls too

1. Import the Soap Client class
2. Create a proxy object to represent the remote server - that's  all you need to do. No need to generate stubs thanks to groovy & xfire !
3. Call the remote method via the proxy
4. You are done
