SOAP for non-RPC messaging application

I am an absolute novice to SOAP/XML
and have been
trying to make sense out of the
cryptic W3C SOAP
specifications.
I have a requirement to build SOAP/XML
based message
interface between two network nodes
(not in anyway
related to any webservice kind
of stuff). The requirement
is two have both client/server
implementation on both sides
and a typical flow would be like
this :
[Node A]
[Node B]
|==========TCP Connection
Establish=========>|
|----------------------
Request 1 (SOAP) --------------------->|
|<--------------------
Response 1 (SOAP)---------------------|
|<--------------------
Request 2 (SOAP) -----------------------|
|----------------------
Response 2 (SOAP)------------------->|
|==========X TCP Connection
Closure X========|
Here you can notice that a TCP
connection is established first,
SOAP messages are exchanged back
and forth, request can be
sent by either node.
I have these questions :
1. Most of the literature I have
gone through talks of
SOAP for RPC based applications.
Can I use SOAP for
a non-RPC kind of application (for
instance purely
for peer-2-peer message transfer
as explained above -
where within the same TCP session
multiple request/response
messages are exchanged back and
forth.)
2. Is there any License free SOAP
framework that allows
me to build a SOAP client cum server
to achieve the above.
I would be grateful if you can
suggest a way out.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
S.Girisa.
