Unfortunately many enterprise services are still onlyavailable as traditional Web Service accessible via Web Services Description Language (WSDL) and SimpleObject Access Protocol (SOAP). In this paper we introduce the Web Service to JSON-RPC adapter tool whichoffers JSON-RPC ports matching the SOAP ports in a WSDL-based web service definition. The adapterautomatically translates JSON-RPC requests incoming on these ports to a responding SOAP message andforwards it the SOAP server. The SOAP response is translated back to JSON-RPC and delivered to the originalclient. Our adapter enables software developers to use a JSON-RPC client which is well supported on mobileplatforms to access SOAP-based Web Services without altering the server nor requiring additional softwareon client side.
