No WSIF isn't dead! Lots of people are using it. Probably the biggest most recent example is the quite high profile it took in the announcement of IBM's latest version of WebSphere this week, see: http://www.aspnews.com/strategies/companies/article/0,2350,10576_1547561,00.html http://www.ibm.com/software/info1/websphere/index.jsp?tab=news/ibmnews/pr112502&S_TACT=102BBW01&S_CMP=campaign
I think one of the reasons WSIF doesn't get many questions on the AXIS lists is that people still seem to use the old alphaWorks discussion group (http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/forum/wsif.nsf) for questions. I've asked alphaWorks to update the WSIF page to point to Apache but it hasn't happen yet. I encourage you to keep on using it, as far as I know there is nothing else available that has similar functionality. ...ant Anthony Elder [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Services Development IBM UK Laboratories, Hursley Park (+44) 01962 818320, x248320, MP208. easter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 29/11/2002 16:26:42 Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: WSIF - Is it dead? I've noticed since my subscription to this list, that no-one at all seems to use WSIF, or (less likely) it's too well documented and bug-free to warrant any mailing list discussions. Is there something else I should be using instead? Is it going to go away? I've found nothing else which allows me to generically and dynamically connect 2 web services together using nothing more than their WSDL descriptions. I feel since I seem to be the only one on the planet to do this, perhaps I'm doing something wrong? Cheers. WH
