public interface SOAPCallFactory

extends java.lang.Cloneable

A factory interface for creating SOAPCall objects. As well as the createSOAPCall() factory method, a number of other methods are defined for configuring the default properties and timeout for the SOAPCall objects that are created.

The interface also defines the public clone method which may be used to create a clone of a SOAPCallFactory with the same default settings at the time of cloning.
