SoapBits is now open source (written in F#)

As I mentioned in my previous post, I have been rewriting my tool SoapBits from C# to F#. Last week, finally I had worked it into usable state enough for me to publish it at codeplex. (I've also renamed the tool to "STORM")

If anyone here would like to learn or try out Functional Programming in F#, please volunteer for the project

Codeplex project : http://codeplex.com/storm

Here's the project description

STORM is an application used to dynamically invoke any type of web service.

The tool is written mostly in F#. (I love this language!)

STORM allows you to
1. Dynamically invoke web service methods even those that have input parameters of complex data types
2. Save development time and money. Creating throw-away test client apps just to test the web service is just too wasteful
3. Test multiple web services from within one UI.

The inspiration for this tool is the .NET Web Service Studio tool originally released at the now closed gotdotnet site.

.NET Tool to dynamically invoke web services

I would like to share with everyone this tool I've played around with for sometime now. It is useful for dynamically invoking web services letting you do away with writing throw-away stub client apps.

Other devs from around the world have found it useful. I hope you will to..

Link to my old post : SoapBits

I'm currently migrating it to my favorite language, F#! After I'm done I'm going to make it open source and host in in codeplex.
