Guys i am in deep trouble at present.I am newbie in web services and things are not getting clear in web services.I have one doubt and it is my request that all the virtuoso present in this forum post their valuable comments.
1.To access a web service present in the Internet in our application what tools are required.I heard that we can do this in ASP.NET,is it true or not.
for example if i have created an application for calculating factorial and suppose i do not want to perform multiplication in my application but want to use a calculator web service that provides multiplication as one of the functions then what i would need to do. And first of all is it possible or not.The main thing is that i want to use these calculator application inside my code of factorial calculation not as a GUI available on a web page.
please post your replies maestros.
2.Also in order to access a particular web service which is present over the internet is it that i require only wsdl file and it would start running when this file is given as an input to any
IDE(e.g ECLIPSE) or i by myself would require to parse this wsdl file to determine the parameters for invoking services.
