Im going to complain against the mods

This is ridiculous

Braiam

could you remove the "Java -" from the title, there's already tags for that

btw, what was the result of the code you wrote?

BDillan

Its part of a much larger program, I get a error with a draw method associated with it

But it would be even more unclear if I put the error

Braiam

why don't you try a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example that reproduces the error?

Q: What flavor of SOAP is defined by this WSDL, and how to consume it with PHP?

We have a PHP application which needs to connect to this SOAP web service—here's the WSDL: https://arixss.arifleet.com/QA/DriveAwayWS/DriveAwaySrvc.svc?wsdl The vendor claims it uses "WS-Security (wsHttpBinding)". This doesn't mean much to me, as I don't have experience beyond "normal" unauthent...

I was about to say it has an awesome answer then I realized the answer doesn't even... answer the question?

If a new user posts an answer on a 5 year old question, and that answer is correct but is also pretty much a duplicate of the other solutions already posted, do we want to keep that answer? Or is that flaggable as something?

Your question indicates unfamiliarity with basic C++ syntax. — Mike DeSimone 26 secs ago

I do not understand these posts. Instead of helping, they are just ranting at newbies.

I lack a copy of the C++ standard, so I can't quote "how to call a method" chapter and verse. Sorry for the inconvenience. But this is something a C++ programmer should know before coming here; SO is not a tutorial and teach-languages-from-step-one site. — Mike DeSimone 1 min ago

Q: What are the pros and cons of XML and JSON?

We're an XML shop (we use both XMPP and RSS/Atom feeds a lot, so I guess we have a little or no choice). Yet, I keep hearing about people who "hate" XML and sometimes refuse to use APIs who can only return XML in favor of JSON. It looks like many many prefer JSON to it, but I'm still not so sure...

@Lazlo if this keeps happening and the irregular voting script doesn't detect it, you can mail the team to take a look.

Laszlo Papp

I usually stand 1-2 downvotes without explanation, but it is getting uncool after the 5th or 6th within such a short while, even for otherwise upvoted answers (or even selected).

@JanDvorak is Baba a meme now or is that still the same guy spamming?
