Answer 1

WCF is a technology for building services. It does not assume that the services are SOAP services or RESTFul or anything else. You have to learn WCf basics such as Service and DataContracts, Endpoints, Bindings etc to be able to work with any kind of service.

The links given marc_s are very helpful for that.

Now as far as SOAP is concerned, it is a format\technology used to transport messages from one endpoint to another. This details is covered by the Binding aspect of the WCF. When you expose and consume services you just have to choose a Binding which uses SOAP.

Hence, you should, using links given by marc_s, learn WCF basics to build a service. Then you will know how to build a service and which binding to choose to use SOAP.

Hope this helps.
