Hello, we are writing rich internet user interfaces and like to call R for some of the computational needs on the data, as well as some creation of image files. Our objects communicate via the SOAP interface. We have been researching the various packages to expose R as a SOAP service. No current CRAN SOAP packages however. Found 3 to date: RSOAP (http://sourceforge.net/projects/rsoap/) SSOAP http://www.omegahat.org/SSOAP/ looks like a commercial version? http://random-technologies-llc.com/products/rsoap Does anyone have experience with these 3 and can recommend the most 'mature' R - SOAP interface package?

Well, SSOAP is (the last time I checked) just a SOAP client. rsoap (if we're talking about the same package) is actually a python SOAP server that communicates to R via rpy. You might want to check out the RWebServices package in Bioconductor. I think it uses Java for its SOAP handling.
Connecting to R as a server via SOAP is one of the many ways the biocep project http://www.biocep.net allows one to make use of R in statistical application development (there is also RESTful web services, connections over RMI, etc.). HTH, Tobias
