I am looking for some alternatives of consuming a SOAP web service in java. I am currently using a stub method to consume it and it’s too simple for my instructor needs. My instructor said to do a trivial client, what was that suppose to mean?

SOAP is basically the submission of XML to a web server using the POST method. While the XML can get verbose, you should be able to construct the XML using StringBuilder and then use a simple HTTP client, like the Apache HttpClient to construct a POST request to a URL using
the XML string as the body.
That’s about as simple as they come.
