My understandings for call back under SOAP are (please correct me if I am wrong): 1. Client and server switch rolls (during the call back, server initialized the connection to the client first). 2. Both server and client need to have web application server running (Apache Tomcat for example). My question is it possible for me to have a SOAP call back without setting up a web application server at the client-side?

It does not support call back in a way like RMI. SOAP lacks many capabilities that RMI has. The SOAP 1.1 spec lists in Design Goals the following things that SOAP does *not* do: a.. Distributed garbage collection b.. Boxcarring or batching of messages c.. Objects-by-reference (which requires distributed garbage collection) d.. Activation (which requires objects-by-reference) Scott Nichol ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hongda Lin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 02, 2002 9:08 AM Subject: Question: Does SOAP support call-back? Hi, I am trying to switch from JAVA RMI to SOAP. Does SOAP support call-back? If it does, how?
