What’s New in Remoting 2009.2

November 5th, 2009, Author: guenter, Category: Announcements, Remoting

In a few weeks the 2009.2 release of our libraries and tools will be available. The new release will bring some significant improvements to Remoting. First of all, WSDL generation for SOAP web services has been improved. RemoteGen can now generate Document/Literal wrapped-style WSDL, which works much better with the Microsoft .NET (both Remoting and WCF) code generators. Note that the actual wire format has not changed, only the generated WSDL.
Then, we have support for new types – Poco::URI is now supported, and we have optimized the way std::vector is serialized. This is especially useful for web services, where std::vector can be used to transfer binary data. Therefore, we now serialize that type as base64Binary, which greatly improves the performance. The Binary transport also handles this type in an optimized way, resulting in better performance there as well. Remoting now also supports true out parameters. Since C++ does not provide a way to mark a parameter as out only, this is specified with an attribute. And finally, various bugs have been fixed as well.
