'Web Services in Action' Abstract
New – and more powerful – Web services frameworks are becoming available for Java developers. In this session XML and Web Services consultant Dennis Sosnoski demonstrates working with one of the most important of the new frameworks, Apache Axis2. He'll show the basics of working with Axis2, using both it's own AXIOM XML object model and the integrated XMLBeans support, and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. He'll cover the ongoing work to add support for JiBX data binding and for a simple Axis1-style default binding as alternatives to using XMLBeans. Dennis will also demonstrate some of the advanced capabilities being built into and on top of Axis2, as tested in the recent Microsoft Indigo interop workshop (including WS-Addressing, WS-Security, WS-ReliableMessaging, and more), and will finish by discussing how Axis2 is likely to match up against the other new frameworks such as JAX-WS.
