High-level and low-level web services APIs

With Genero, we distinguish two type of APIs to implement web services.

  • High-level web services are SOAP web services managed on server side with the high-level APIs WebService and WebOperation, or if you have generated code via the fglwsdl tool (client and server side).
  • Low-level web services are implemented with HTTPRequest, HTTPResponse and HTTPServiceRequest classes, where you have to write all the HTTP code of your services by hand.
