I am not certain what specification says how to implement this on HTTP. Microsoft has the server respond with an empty (no entity) HTTP response with some magic status like "216 Received" after the SOAP request is validated, but before the service is actually executed. I would like to have this in Apache SOAP, but have not yet had time to add it. The current Apache SOAP code (1) always executes the service before transmitting an HTTP response and (2) always transmits a SOAP envelope as the HTTP entity. The closest thing to one-way operations is any service with a void return type.
