What do you mean by supported continuously ?

[Rick.Banister]

If by "continuously" you mean "forever," the answer is "yes." Everything depends on it, and Salesforce will not discontinue the SOAP API.

[zgcharley_09]

I mean there's some new API for Salesforce.com like REST and so on. Will the SOAP API be dropped in the future some time?

The SOAP API is still under active development, there are no plans to drop it.
