services

This is all great for exposing Drupal as web services, but consuming web services still eludes me. For instance, I have an LDAP directory exposed via SOAP and want to build a client to search and list directory entries from within Drupal. Am I better off making a homegrown "php snippet" solution, or am I missing something that the Services module already provides?

Hello,

Many seem to be chomping at the bit for examples, and seeing as I've got this working I figured I might as well post one. This is about as simple as you can get in terms of retrieving data from Drupal, via services.module, in Flex:

Per snelson's (creator of these amazing sites) description of the Services module:

Out of curiosity as to how the Services modules worked, I started work on a Jabber Service for Drupal. The result is a service that allows you to connect to a Jabber server and send a message. It's just the beginnings, and I'd like to see it progress. If anyone would like to expand on the idea, please do. You'll be able to find all required code here:

Feel free to take a look at the code and see if there's anyway we could make Drupal->Jabber integration better. Thanks a lot!
