The essence of. Net-XML and SOAP (2)

. NET Technology

You may have read some articles about. NET and its composition .. NET allows us to share information and interact with each other at the service level rather than the publishing level. Microsoft's. NET-Supported Products and many third-party components, content, and features have an internal. NET structure. But naturally, a question is raised: "What Makes. NET work ?"

These operations start with XML.

Data Encoding using XML

To understand. NET, you need to understand XML. Like the Language we speak and write in our own communication, XML, eXtensible Markup Language, and eXtensible Markup Language are the basis of. NET. Maybe we have great ideas and information to share, but if we cannot express our thoughts and information in a way that others can understand, our hard work and thoughts can only lie there to sleep. XML is the soul of. NET and the foundation of all. NET. The database will be read and written through the record set in XML. The Web browser will accept XML and display it together with the style table that accompanied it. Visual Studio will even generate XML code! If you do not understand XML and related technologies, you cannot communicate with. NET resources!

For today's Web servers, XML is almost ubiquitous. Almost all computing platforms can analyze XML, so they can obtain the content in XML documents. Windows, Linux, and MVS and VMS. Even for cellular mobile phones! Therefore, if we can find a way to obtain XML documents from a remote system, the question is how to understand the data contained in the document. At this time, we use SOAP to carry XML documents.
