Ahh, holidays. The perfect time to sit down and cut some code. A strange hobby, yes!
This entry is coming from a MySQL database, but entered in a slightly different way. I’ve written a small VB (AppleScript once the AppleScript studio ships) application that permits insertion of records via SOAP and PHP. After much frustration with the MSSOAP toolkit – all nice when doing simple work, but fails when working with structs or arrays – you�ve go to do its hard work! I swapped to pocketSOAP and churned out code faster. It also created a class from my WSDL automatically. The SOAP tracing and debug tools also help.
The vision is being able to enter blog entries from work (behind a firewall) easily. I think I am almost there. Somepeople go travelling on their holidays – what a waste 🙂
