    Hi Karthik...

    If I'm understanding correctly, it doesn't really doesn't matter how the web service is implemented. If you're just trying to make a call to that web service from the FDK, you just need to make an HTTP request and pass the appropriate data, no?

    I've used the MFC CInternetSession class to provide a function in an external DLL (separate from the FDK DLL) that makes the HTTP request, and returns data to the FDK.

    HI scott,

    Thanks for your reply, I need to invoke Java web services.I've explained below the architecture of the Application.

    Application would be to implement a three tier architecture - Framemaker/Framemaker extensions on the client, web services/java classes for middle tier and oracle/oracle XML DB for the back end.

    Can anyone share some information about invoking JAVA web services from FDK client.

    The only way I've done this is to create the code to make the web service call in an MFC DLL with an exported function that is separate from the FDK DLL, then call the exported function from the FDK DLL.
