Hi,
1) What level of support currently there is in AXIS 1.2 for message attachments.
E.g., does it support both DIME and and SwA?
2) WS-I has SOAP attachment profile finalized in August 2004. Does AXIS support SOAP attachment profile: http://www.ws-i.org/Profiles/AttachmentsProfile-1.0-2004-08-24.html
3) It seems the W3C's end goal is to support MTOM approach of transfering binary attachments to
SOAP messages, but it seems that this may take some time.
In any case MTOM should in theory be compatible with SOAP attachment profile from MIME
perspective. Also, MTOM is only compatible with SOAP 1.2 and WSDL 1.2 while AXIS 1.2
supports both SOAP 1.1/1.2 and WSDL 1.1.
4) So, really, it seems that commercially from the standpoint of SOAP attachment interoperability
WS-I Attachment Profile (as mentioned in #2) is the only option. However, I am
wondering how can you support DIME from WSE 2.0? Is not DIME on supported
in WSE 1.0?

Do you mean the .NET client side? I have created a similar C# class
for that portion. The C# class has the ability to add attachments for
a client, and to detach them.
As for a Java client, I have only created a method that solves half of
the problem. I think, though, after solving the first half, the
second half should be a trivial thing to create. I will see if I can
make something to contribute next week.
