WCF or plain old HttpWebRequest to communicate with JSPs?


we have a third party web-based content management system written in Java. It has a SDK, a bunch of JSP calls that you can make which return XML. Now I have to write a wrapper in .NET which will make these calls and return objects in place of XML. This will be a dll which can be added to .NET projects as any other external dlls.

What I want to know is that can it be done using WCF, which will not be a service btw, or am I good with plain HttpWebRequest? If yes then please give pointers where I can get started with.

Regards.

  • As I get correct jsp is web services, right? There shouldn't be problems.

    According to work WCF with different type of source you should check next articles:

    And you can check Sun's Project Tango but it is related for complex solutions.
