JAXWS 2.1 Early Access 1 is out

Posted by vivekp on September 26, 2006 at 02:33 PM | Comments (2)

JAXWS 2.1 Early Access 1 is out I have put out JAXWS 2.1 EA1 bits. As I mentioned in my previous blog that JAXWS 2.1 is a rename of JAXWS 2.0.1 and we are calling this release EA1 as its implementing JAXWS 2.1 Maintenance Review specification, which is not final yet and moreover in this release all the JAXWS 2.1 MR APIs are not implemented.

The key new feature in this release is the support for WS-Addressing implementation. some key points here are:

  • Includes implementation of W3C and Member Submission versions of WS-Addressing
  • Programming model includes development of WS-Addressing aware endpoints both starting from Java and from WSDL and also WS-Addressing aware client by importing the W3C WS-Addressing WSDL. For details see Rama's blog.

Other new thing to note is that this release is integrated with JAXB 2.1 EA RI. So you have all the JAXB 2.1 features to try out.

This means you would need JAXB 2.1 EA jars together with JAXWS 2.1 EA1 to run your applications and it may not work with earlier release of JAXWS. We are planning to provide some mechanism in wsimport so that you can control the version of the generated artifacts. Stay tuned...

We have run our TCK/SQE/Unit tests and the quality seems to be same as JAXWS 2.0.1 M1 release. So go ahead and try it out. The jars are pushed into maven repository.

We would like to hear from you so please send your feedback to users@jax-ws.dev.java.net.

  • When can we expect to see the JAX-WS 2.1 MR spec? Seems odd that a EA is available before the spec, even an early draft, can be seen.

    Thanks,
    Roger

  • JAXWS 2.1 is Maintainence Release which means there will be change log and not a Spec document. See Doug's blog at:

    http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohlert/archive/2006/08/jaxws_21_mr.html

    Doug is the JAXWS 2.1 MR lead.

    Thanks, vivek.
