MetaService 1.1 : The raw messages

The MetaService is a [http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/NOTE-SOAP-20000508/|Soap 1.1] web service that uses "Transport" security.{BR}
With Soap, clients and services communicate using XML messages, and Transport security means they can only do it over SSL. Soap services often use the [http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl|Web Services Definition Language (WSDL)] standard to explain to the world what input they require, and what data the client can expect in return.{BR}
The WSDL file for the MetaService is available at this Url:

*[https://services.companywebcast.com/meta/1.1.5/metaservice.svc?wsdl|https://services.companywebcast.com/1.1.5/meta/metaservice.svc?wsdl]

Most of the time you would use the Url above to generate code with tools in your platform or IDE.
However, you may want to craft request messages by hand, and deserialize the response yourself, or you may just be interested in what the data that actually goes over the wire looks like.{BR}
The XML below was created by and copied from the excellent free Java tool [http://www.soapui.org/|SoapUI].
