gsoap 4.1 library question

I am new to using the gsoap library for making calls to the vCenter and have the following questions. I am in the cloud group in Cisco and am trying to use the gsoap library to make calls to the vCenter from our APIs. I want to know the following:

I want to know specifically for using 4.1 gsoap library as we have a code base that has 4.1 gsoap C++ SDK integrated with it.

- vCenter operation to shutdown, delete VM etc. Are there gsoap library calls that provides these options. 

- Fetch .vmdk, .vmtx, .vmx file from vCenter using vSphere SDK.

- Fetch information from .vmtx file to know OS

- How to get OS, CPU, Memory, Network and Storage information for the VM. I am assuming by parsing the VMX file. Are there specific APIs for this.

My final question is gsoap 4.1 SDK enough to handle the queries above or do I need to upgrade my gsoap C++ SDK. Also, can sombody provide a link to the gsoap C++ sdk.

I found the following link which seems to have way more APIs than our current integration:

Any ideas on this.
