You shouldnt write some SOAP API from the scratch. It will be very problematic, especially the error handling. It will begin like in this article SOAP client for C++, but there will be a lot of work to do to get it running.

This SOAP client library looks fine.

If I google for GSoap tutorial I find some topics.

Addtional tip: SOAP is better supported in C#

SOAP Agent is a commercial product that comes without its source code, and the binary files cost $2000+. gSOAP can be used for free unless its for a commercial product, in such case, the license comes with a price.
