Getting Started with JAX-WS Web Services
January 21, 2011 Leave a comment
Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS), JSR 224, is an important part of the Java EE 5 and EE 6 platforms. A follow-up to the release of Java API for XML-based RPC 1.1(JAX-RPC), JAX-WS simplifies the task of developing web services using Java technology. It addresses some of the issues in JAX-RPC 1.1 by providing support for multiple protocols such as SOAP 1.1, SOAP 1.2, XML, and by providing a facility for supporting additional protocols along with HTTP. JAX-WS uses JAXB 2.0 for data binding and supports customizations to control generated service endpoint interfaces. With its support for annotations, JAX-WS simplifies web service development and reduces the size of runtime JAR files.
