JAXWS: Metadata Abstraction Layer
---------------------------------

         Key: AXIS2-878
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-878
     Project: Apache Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
        Type: New Feature

  Components: jaxws  
    Reporter: Jeff Barrett


This layer abstracts the various metadata used by JAXWS.  That metadata 
currently consists of WSDL, JSR-181 annotations, and JAXWS-defined annotations. 
 Eventually, JSR-109 1.2 Deployment Descriptors will be another source of 
metadata.  This layer will shield the rest of JAX-WS from this metadata and the 
complexities involved in merging the various sources into the final effective 
metadata to be used.

The layer will contain a hierachy of description artifacts corresponding to the 
service, ports, port types, operations, and parameters.  These Description 
classes will delegate to the AxisSerivce, AxisOperation, etc to access WSDL 
metadata and non-JAXWS-specific annotation information.  The Description 
classes will contain the JAXWS-specific annotation information (and eventually) 
other JAXWS-specific information (such as JSR-109 DD information).

I am currently working on the initial implementation of this layer and the 
associated tests.
