The 021 * static methods of this class calls the same methods of the service utility. 022 * However, the signatures are different because it is difficult for SOAP to 023 * support certain types. 024 * </p> 025 * 026 * <p> 027 * ServiceBuilder follows certain rules in translating the methods. For example, 028 * if the method in the service utility returns a {@link java.util.List}, that 029 * is translated to an array of {@link com.liferay.portlet.polls.model.PollsChoiceSoap}. 030 * If the method in the service utility returns a 031 * {@link com.liferay.portlet.polls.model.PollsChoice}, that is translated to a 032 * {@link com.liferay.portlet.polls.model.PollsChoiceSoap}. Methods that SOAP cannot 033 * safely wire are skipped. 034 * </p> 035 * 036 * <p> 037 * The benefits of using the SOAP utility is that it is cross platform 038 * compatible. SOAP allows different languages like Java, .NET, C++, PHP, and 039 * even Perl, to call the generated services. One drawback of SOAP is that it is 040 * slow because it needs to serialize all calls into a text format (XML). 041 * </p> 042 * 043 * <p> 044 * You can see a list of services at 045 * http://localhost:8080/api/secure/axis. Set the property 046 * <b>axis.servlet.hosts.allowed</b> in portal.properties to configure 047 * security. 048 * </p> 049 * 050 * <p> 051 * The SOAP utility is only generated for remote services. 052 * </p> 053 * 054 * @author Brian Wing Shun Chan 055 * @see PollsChoiceServiceHttp 056 * @see com.liferay.portlet.polls.model.PollsChoiceSoap 057 * @see com.liferay.portlet.polls.service.PollsChoiceServiceUtil 058 * @generated 059 */ 060 public class PollsChoiceServiceSoap { 061 }
