Re: Ksoap: Can kSOAP do this?

I'm not sure I understood 100% of what you want to do, but it sounds like
possible.
Ideally, you could use the kSoap servlet to respond to soap requests ...
unfortunately this implies running a servlet engine, which might be a bit
"too much"
on an iPaq :-)
You can, indeed, directly listen to a ServerSocket, get connections, use
kSoap to read the soap request and post the soap response on the same
socket.
The only problem I see is the transport layer. Best would be to use
Soap/HTTP.
If you listen directly on a ServerSocket, either you parse the HTTP headers
yourself
and leave the payload to ksoap, or you just do run Soap over plain sockets.
Thanks to the extreme flexibility of kSoap, both options are possible.

Hope it helps,
Sebastien.
