SOAP originally = Simple Object Access Protocol. It's just a protocol for providing a web service: that is, access to structured data (XML in this case) over the web (HTTP). A SOAP client is just a piece of software which can connect to a server providing SOAP web services.

To use R, don't reinvent the wheel: use KEGGSOAP from R/Bioconductor.

yes sir i install instal keggsoap,rcurl,xml package but it gives error like,

library(KEGGSOAP) Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths())) : there is no package called ‘SSOAP’ Error: package/namespace load failed for ‘KEGGSOAP

so i gone to (http://www.omegahat.org/SSOAP/),ssoap available for linux only in SSOAP_0.9-0.tar.gz file there is no package of ssoap for windows, how should i go?
