26 * <p>
27 * This class provides a SOAP utility for the
28 * {@link com.liferay.portal.service.ContactServiceUtil} service utility. The
29 * static methods of this class calls the same methods of the service utility.
30 * However, the signatures are different because it is difficult for SOAP to
31 * support certain types.
32 * </p>
33 *
34 * <p>
35 * ServiceBuilder follows certain rules in translating the methods. For example,
36 * if the method in the service utility returns a {@link java.util.List}, that
37 * is translated to an array of {@link com.liferay.portal.model.ContactSoap}.
38 * If the method in the service utility returns a
39 * {@link com.liferay.portal.model.Contact}, that is translated to a
40 * {@link com.liferay.portal.model.ContactSoap}. Methods that SOAP cannot
41 * safely wire are skipped.
42 * </p>
43 *
44 * <p>
45 * The benefits of using the SOAP utility is that it is cross platform
46 * compatible. SOAP allows different languages like Java, .NET, C++, PHP, and
47 * even Perl, to call the generated services. One drawback of SOAP is that it is
48 * slow because it needs to serialize all calls into a text format (XML).

52 * You can see a list of services at
53 * http://localhost:8080/tunnel-web/secure/axis. Set the property
54 * <b>tunnel.servlet.hosts.allowed</b> in portal.properties to configure
55 * security.
56 * </p>
57 *
58 * <p>
59 * The SOAP utility is only generated for remote services.
