Java Implementations of SOAP

    

If you seek the Web with the key words "Java Accomplishing of SOAP", you will acquisition the afterward

    

most accepted implementations:

    

    
• Apache Web Casework - Arbor at http://ws.apache.org/axis/.
  
      

  Current release: June 15, 2005 - Adaptation 1.2.1. Supports SOAP 1.1/1.2 specifications.
  
      

  This is absolutely a assiduity of Apache WebService Project.

  Current release: June 10, 2002 - Adaptation 2.3.1. Supports alotof of the SOAP 1.1 specification.
  
      



    

Feature account of accepted absolution of Apache Web Casework - Axis:

    

    
• SOAP 1.1/1.2 adjustable engine
  
      



    
• Flexible agreement / deployment arrangement
  
      



    
• Support for "drop-in" deployment of SOAP casework (JWS)
  
      



    
• Support for all basal types, and a blazon mapping arrangement for defining new serializers/deserializers
  
      



    
• Automatic serialization/deserialization of Java Beans, including customizable mapping of fields to XML elements/attributes
  
      



    
• Automatic two-way conversions amid Java Collections and SOAP Arrays
  
      



    
• Providers for RPC and bulletin based SOAP casework
  
      



    
• Automatic WSDL bearing from deployed casework
  
      



    
• WSDL2Java apparatus for architecture Java proxies and skeletons from WSDL abstracts
  
      



    
• Java2WSDL apparatus for architecture WSDL from Java classes.
  
      



    
• Preliminary aegis extensions, which can accommodate with Servlet 2.2 security/roles
  
      



    
• Support for session-oriented services, via HTTP accolade or transport-independent SOAP headers
  
      



    
• Preliminary abutment for the SOAP with Attachments blueprint
  
      



    
• An EJB provider for accessing EJB s as Web Casework
  
      



    
• HTTP servlet-based carriage
  
      



    
• JMS based carriage
  
      



    
• Standalone adaptation of the server (with HTTP support)
  
      



    

Feature account of endure absolution of Apache WebService Activity - SOAP:

    

    
• Supports alotof of the SOAP v1.1 specification.
  
      



    
• Supports the SOAP Letters with Attachments W3C Note.
  
      



    
• Provides server-side basement for deploying, managing and active SOAP enabled services.
  
      



    
• Provides client-side API for invoking SOAP services.
  
      



    
• Release includes abounding antecedent beneath the Apache Software License.
  
      



    
• Supports three encoding styles: SOAP v1.1 Encoding, Accurate XML and XMI.
  
      



    
• XMI encoding (available if using Java 1.2.2) supports automated marshalling and unmarshalling of approximate objects.
  
      



    
• SOAP encoding: congenital abutment is provided for encoding/decoding archaic types, Strings, approximate JavaBeans (using reflection) and 1-dimensional arrays of these types. For additional types user can hand-write encoder/decoder and annals with XML-SOAP runtime.
  
      



    
• Literal XML encoding: allows one to forward XML elements (DOM org.w3c.dom.Element objects) as ambit by embedding the accurate XML serialization of the DOM tree. No cipher needs to be accounting to abutment this (see the addressbook audience to see a sample use of it).
  
      



    
• Supports messaging and RPC over two transports: HTTP and SMTP.
  
      



    
• Supports assembly casework in scripting languages.
  
      



    

Axis Accession Requirements on Windows

    

There is no bright certificate tells what are the requirements to install Arbor on Windows systems.

    

But I assumption that JDK 1.4 and Bobcat 4.x should be enough.

    

On my system, I accept JDK 1.5.0 and Bobcat 5.5 installed. That should be acceptable abundant to try Arbor

    

myself.
