Next step was to figure-out how to use it.
After some additional investigation, I found that it is pretty simple to use, when you get used to it once. Read more

Last few weeks, i often see confused people asking questions about difference between Magento’s API v1 and v2, and also bunch of questions about how to use WSDL and WS-I files when developing own or extending existing Magento soap API v2.

Sometimes we need to define global variables accesible from inside our android application to hold some shared values.

Proper and fast debugging is a key to any application development. Unlike my great experience with PHP where I usually debug whatever I need in a breeze, I found my self against the wall when working with Android and web service API calls. Problem is simple, you cannot that easily dump entire $_SESSION array like in PHP and see it’s content. Surely there are other ways as Java language has full set of it’s own debugging ways.
