PowerTCP Web Enterprise for ActiveX

PowerTCP WebEnterprise for ActiveX provides client-side SOAP compatibility with the Microsoft SOAP Toolkit. This latest version contains the WebASP control, which completely replaces Microsoft's HTTP connector enabling concise control over the transport of a user's SOAP payload. It allows for advanced debugging, fine-tuned security requirements, header flexibility, and the choice of creating a synchronous or asynchronous architectural model in a client-side SOAP solution.
