Answer 1

It sure is, as long as the web service is exposed by the HTTP protocol. But you’d have to parse the response yourself, and construct valid requests yourself. Much easier to use a framework like Apache Axis, which has all of this automated.

You should also note that this web service is using the SOAP protocol, which should be accounted for when you’re trying to use it.
