[REBOL] Re: Google + SOAP

Hi Graham,
For now, nothing special, it just closes the opened port. Remember that REBOL ports are
just
an abstraction for virtual series, they don't necessarily mean that you're using tcp/ip
connections. In this case, the real http connection is closed in the 'insert call. So,
'close
here doesn't mean we're closing a tcp/ip connection, it just tell the handler to free
his
ressources (for example, set to 'none all the XML parsing stuff and do a 'recycle)
Just a though:
When you use the open/insert/close approach you can call several remote methods without
having to parse the WSDL file each time. This is not true for 'read calls...unless web
services are globally managed as a list of cached port! values that could be reused when
opening the 'soap scheme. This sounds better but will eat more memory. Maybe the /direct
refinement of 'open and 'read could be used to tell the 'soap scheme to use the cache
or not...
