Hi,
what is the relation between JWSDP(JAX-RPC,SAAJ) and Apache Axis?Is it compulsory to have the Apache Axis on Tomcat to implement the JAX-RPC or SAAJ? In order to implement any JWSDP technology do we need to have JAVA(14.x)+ JWSDP1.3 + Tomcat or JAVA(14.x)+ JWSDP1.3 + Tomcat+Apache Axis what is the effect using and without using the Axis implementing the JAX-RPC or SAAJ? If i use Axis does it make my work bit easier rather implementing JAX-RPC or SAAJ using only JWSDP packages. Can anyone explain me.., thanks in advance Regards Rao., |

Java 1.4.x + JWSDP + Tomcat would be enough to implement JAX-RPC

JWSDP and Apache Axis are two independent web service libraries, developed by two different developement organizations, Sun and the Apache Group.
Axis implements the JAX-RPC and SAAJ specifications. Axis does not include an application server, so you need to install Tomcat, WebSphere, etc., to deploy web services with Axis. JWSDP implements the JAX-RPC and SAAJ specs, all also includes several other web service specs and tools, including JAXR, a UDDI server, a UDDI browser, etc. The JWSDP installation includes Tomcat, so you don't need to install anything else to deploy web services. If you write web services using JAX-RPC and SAAJ, they should work with either JWSDP or Axis. Axis is open-source and the axis-user mailing is very active, so you may have an easier time getting questions answered. Also, many commericial web service implementations (WebSphere, WebLogic) are based on Axis. However, JWSDP is ahead of Axis as far as implementing the latest specs. Hope this helps, |
