"Web services will be added to Borland's Kylix
Linux-based rapid application development (RAD) software. At
Borland's conference in London this week, the company said the Web
service features will be available in the fourth quarter of 2001.
...Jason Vokes, Borland's European product line manager for RAD
products, said: 'Kylix is the equivalent of (Borland's) Delphi 6
RAD product that runs on Windows. Delphi has recently been updated
to include Web services and Kylix is now to be extended in the same
way.'"
He explained that this meant adding support for Simple Object
Access Protocol (Soap), XML transfer capability and Web Services
Description Language (WSDL)."
