Of course there are libraries that do all of this stuff - and they work nearly all the time. However, when they stop working you end up having to look at what is actually going over the wire (or WDSL if you are really unlucky) to try and work out what on earth is going on.

98% of the time SOAP works without too many problems - the trouble is that those other 2% of cases can be truly awful to debug because you have then got to wade through all of the crap that is in there to support the "easy to use" functionality.

SOAP should die.
