Salesforce is now JAX-WS enabled!

29,800 customers and 646,000 subscribers of salesforce.com - they can now use fast and furious JAX-WS tools and runtime to access and interact with their applications programmatically. The JAX-WS team at Sun has worked closely with Salesforce team to create QuickStart, Enterprise and Partners (to be hosted soon) bundles using JAX-WS 2.1.1. Each bundle is

• Self-contained, with all pre-generated client-side artifacts and JAX-WS libraries required to invoke a standard (quickstart, enterprise and partner) WSDL
• Scripts to invoke the endpoint in the main directory
• Instructions (in etc directory) on how to re-generate your artifacts if you have a custom WSDL using
  • Scripts in the bin directory
  • A template build.xml (in etc directory) for Ant scripts

salesforce.com processes more API transactions than it does Web browser / UI requests and JAX-WS bundles are very well equipped to handle that. This is the same JAX-WS that is also available in GlassFish v2.

Use these bundles and let us know your feedback.
