Re: stub + skeleton

[Anne Thomas Manes]

The Call interface is a low-level, dynamic interface, and it can be trickier when using complex types. The stub interface is more like RMI. Simpler, easier, but less dynamic and less control.

just finished axis User Guide with a few questions :

 

- there are 2 ways to deploy / call a web service

1) (without using / generate stub + skeletons) --> example1 in axis samples

--> call web service using --> Call call = (Call) service.createCall();

 

2) (generate stub + skeletons using WSDL2Java) example6 in axis samples

--> call web service using --> WidgetPriceServiceLocator().getWidgetPrice()

 

QUESTION 1 : what are the difference the 2 ways --> deploy / calling a web service?

 

QUESTION 2 : is the 2nd way (using stub) better? since just run WSDL2Java then i can call web service in my client code + all code generated automatically

 

QUESTION 3 : is all other web service engine (.NET / PHP / Perl) has t his 2 ways of deloyment as in axis? -OR- all web service have to generate stub + skeletons?

 

Thanks
