RPCE web services deprecated
| WS-I web services | WS-I web services are published by using the SOAP protocol and are compatible with the WS-I standard. |
| RPC Encoded (RPCE) web services | RPCE web services are an older style of publishing web services. Prior to version 7.0, PolicyCenter supported RPCE web service publishing only. |
In version 7.0, Guidewire recommended you publish and consume web services as WS-I web services rather than RPCE. Version 7.0 continued to support RPCE web services, and RPCE web services in the default configuration were not deprecated.
In version 8.0, RPCE web services support and RPCE web services in the default configuration are deprecated. Version 8.0 continues to support RPCE web services for backward compatibility only. Guidewire strongly recommends you begin converting your RPCE code to equivalent WS-I code.
As with all WS-I web services, use Ctrl+N to find one or more implementation
classes in Studio. If more than one is available, check the package name. For example,
if the package contains pc/800 or pl/800, that version was
introduced in PolicyCenter 8.0.
