I was reading up a little on the new Windows Web Services feature that is part of Windows 7, and I wondered if anyone knew if it would be available for use on Vista or XP (or Windows 2003 server)?

    To answer my own question the answer is yes:

    Its interesting MS are focussing on web services for native code, but also for devices with the WSDAPI and remote management services too.

    edit:

    turns out that you have to beg Microsoft to use it on any non-W7 system:

    WWS API is available on all versions
    of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008
    R2 and it can also be deployed to
    Windows XP, Vista, Server 2003 and
    Server 2008. The redistributable
    installers are available on a formal
    request to wwsredst@microsoft.com
    with a brief description of plans for
    using this runtime and the business
    contact information for your company.

    So, it seems gsoap is still the best solution for creating fast, low-memory web services.
