jboss webservices and com client

[ppsri]

I am working on jboss evaluation for our company. I have to write a java web app(with EJB's and servlets) to be called by a com/asp for data request and data transfer.

I am planning to implement the webservices with jboss.

First, Can COM get xml from a java application on Jboss??
can Jboss read XML from COM/ASP??

If yes Can some one please guide me in the right direction. What should I install with jboss/tomcat/apache and how to send/get xml from COM/ASP??

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by get xml?

If the ASP is just outputing documents of mime type text/xml
of course it can. Anything can, it just creates an http
connection and uses an xml parser.

I'm not clear what you are doing so you might also
want to investigate one of following:

Soap - Originally started by microsoft

Cocoon - An Apache tool
