Hi Does TAP's use of SOAP for query make use of the (cachable, URI-linkable etc) HTTP GET method, or is it over HTTP POST? http://tap.stanford.edu/tap/getdatadetails.html left me unsure. http://www.w3.org/TR/soap12-part2/#soapinhttp documents SOAP 1.2's HTTP binding, and http://www.w3.org/TR/soap12-part2/#WebMethodFeature the oddly named 'SOAP Web Method Feature', which as I understand it is SOAP's way of allowing SOAP services with GET-like semantics to use HTTP's GET method. Maybe I should be asking two questions: TAP's GetData in the abstract, vs the Stanford implementation of it...? Anyway, further clues gratefully received, cheers, Dan ps. for an RDF protocol that does use GETs, http://www.joseki.org/protocol.html might be of interest.Received on Tuesday, 28 January 2003 16:12:15 GMT
