Hi,
How can I use WSE 3.0 from a pure C++ client ?
Is it possible ?
I want to use wse security policies.
thanks.

Short answer is you can't. WSE is a .Net technology and thus requires the
clr at some level. However, you can build your c++ code with the /clr
option set which will add common langnuage runtime support so you can call
..Net code. However, while your app won't be a managed assembly it could be
argued that it's not pure c++ anymore either.

Another option is to build a COM wrapper around the functionality you need
in .Net and then have your C++ app call in to that.

Thank you Andrew.
I'm disappointed, because I really would like to avoid to impose
the .net or wse Runtime on the client side. And wse security features
sound very attractive.
Is there a way to perform Kerberos authentication (with AD) with a web
service using a pure c++ client ?
Can someone give me a link or something I can dig in ?
