AWS SOAP with SSL

AWS SOAP with SSL

[NiGHTS]

Can SOAP be used over SSL in an Ada Web Service application? If so, how exactly can that be achieved? There is very little documentation on SOAP and SSL for AWS, and none talking about both being used at the same time.

Thanks for your help.

Sure SOAP and SSL are orthogonal.

See demos/soap_demo for a using on the client side. If you're using
WSDL and generating code using ada2wsdl and wsdl2aws just pass the
server address (using https://...) to ada2wsdl, see option -a option.

most likely by compiling AWS with SSL enabled (is not by default)
and then use https for urls

Out of curiosity. How can it be default or not? Sometimes you need 
secure, sometimes plain HTTP, on both sides.

Hmm I don't get the question. AWS (as bundled with compiler)
can do http calls (the client), but not https - raises 'not implemented'
or someting like that.

recompile it with ssl enabled, and you can use http and https from client.

The enable ssl switches the aws.net.ssl ? ssl body.

server side - I did not test, but assue it uses aws.net.ssl

That answers the question. "SSL enabled" = can both HTTP and HTTPS. 
Default is only HTTP.

What SSL stack does that use?  Is there one written in Ada?

OpenSSL?

There was an initiative to design one in SPARK.

I would gladly use it instead of GNUTLS I am using for HTTP, MQTT, SMTP.

AWS in itself can be configured to use OpenSSL or GNUTLS.
I've only tried OpenSSL myself, Linux and Windows

OpenSSL or GNUTLS (choice at compile time).

We had also tested with LibreSSL and it should work too.

Thank you for your reply.

I had a feeling this was the case, so I appreciate your clarification.

Is there a REST API version available? I am more interested in REST than SOAP, but I didn't see one available in AWS.

There is no REST API at the moment in AWS.

Some specific API or just impossible to have a user-defined parser of 
the HTTP request's path and content in AWS?

The former, it is indeed always possible to parse the payload.

But a REST framework based on AWS was presented in the Ada DevRoom at
FOSDEM this year:
