What tools are available for debugging my services?

If you run your appserver within an IDE you can put breakpoints in the service code (refer to Section 4 of Server-Side SOAP for more detail). You can do a similar trick for the client side code. One very useful tool is a TCP-IP tunnel that you can put between the client and the server to monitor the SOAP dialogues. One is the TcpTunnelGUI that comes with Apache SOAP for Java. Another is the Trace Utility that comes with the Microsoft SOAP Toolkit.
