Zero-CU Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Yes Yes exactly! That's what I meant to, an option to import a SOAP service (in simple words - [b]webservice[/b]). I didn't asked a .NET/ASP.NET support like Zero-CU the moron thinks. And like you sayed, with webservice you can do [b]everything[/b], and that would be a great improvement for IPB. Everything as in anything? That could become a security risk If you think about it. I was always under the impression IPB was looking to 'improve' security, not degrade it.

I was always under the impression IPB was looking to 'improve' security, not degrade it. I agree. They are not going to expose the DB class (or whatever it becomes in 3) as a service. That would be a security nightmare. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Generally web site APIs don't cover things like database classes, they'd cover things like member data, posts, calendar items, etc. If those could be exposed in a HTTP-accessible API, be it SOAP or something else, I think that'd be a great addition.

True, but I'm trying to make sure the OP realizes this. I'm not sure that what he's looking to do would be covered by those exposed items. But I still would like to hear what kind of mods he plans to make with this interface. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
