Today I had my first dealings with SOAP + .NET

I want to kill myself.

SOAP + anything induces suicide. Who is still using WCF?

Aren't there any tools today to proxy SOAP APIs to something more normal?

I feel that pain. Working with Oracle’s Netsuite is all SOAP and it was one stupid thing after another.

Elect me for president in November and I will make SOAP illegal.

SOAP?! Welcome to 2002!

@hubiruchi Visual Studio can generate alot of boilerplate code, bit I wouldnt say it makes it more usable, just hides the XML

@AlmondSauce It isnt by choice. All the relavant information I can find are forum posts from 2010 on half shady websites.

Man... you think SOAP is bad? Wait till you "upgrade" to working with REST!

Please don't summon the demon lord WCF. WCF is he who must not be named for me.

It's only usuable if WCF is used with .net solutions, visual studio will just handle that shit and generate classes instead.

Had to use it once with an Android app, I almost killed myself 😒
