020     * Provides the SOAP utility for the
021     * {@link com.liferay.portlet.polls.service.PollsChoiceServiceUtil} service utility. The
022     * static methods of this class calls the same methods of the service utility.
023     * However, the signatures are different because it is difficult for SOAP to
024     * support certain types.
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 http://localhost:8080/api/axis. Set the
045     * property <b>axis.servlet.hosts.allowed</b> in portal.properties to configure
046     * security.
047     * </p>
048     *
049     * <p>
050     * The SOAP utility is only generated for remote services.
