This latest release provides improved support for passing XML in parameters, improved interoperability with the May 2000 IBM SOAP release, and a number of bug fixes.
Additional information is available in the release notes included in the download.
Please note that the SOAP Toolkit requires Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0 SP6, as well as Visual Studio 6.0 SP3 to be fully functional. This is the second Beta release of the Microsoft Soap Toolkit Version 2. This Toolkit offers functionality similar to the MSDN Soap Toolkit sample which has been available for several months, but it will be a fully Microsoft supported product. The GOLD release of this Toolkit will replace the current MSDN Soap Toolkit. This is the first Release Candidate release of the Microsoft Soap Toolkit Version 2.
