Hi Anil, The Data binding frameworks come into picture when you are generating the Java code artifacts from WSDL. If you observe the "wsdl2java" command there is a command line argument namely "-d" with which you can specify the Data binding framework which you want to use. In case u want to use JiBX you would be specifying something like
$> wsdl2java -o /outputDir -d jibx -EbindingFile /resources/jibxbindingFile.xml -uri MyWebService.wsdl The above command is just for making things more simpler. Also if there are no schema references in the WSDL or if the WSDL is not having any schema types then the Data binding framework would not be coming into picture. (Others Please correct me if I am wrong.) You would just be deciding which Data binding framework you should be using. AXIS 2 would internally be using the same and generating the Java classes for you. Do not get confused by the approach which you are choosing to build the web service and the data binding framework. The data binding framework is just to map the schema which is defined in the WSDL to Java classes. Thats the only purpose of the data binding framework. Using POJO's for web services means you would be writing a POJO class which would be capturing all the information you need for invoking the particular web service operation. For example if you see the AddressBookService in the AXIS 2 samples you can see that the addEntry method takes in a POJO as its input parameter namely Entry. Regarding your second question I am not able to understand it correctly. Also the flow which you have mentioned from the Client to the Service is correct and it would remain the same for any Web service for that matter i.e. not only AXIS 2 but any web service which is developed using any other framework. Hope that answers your queries.

As I said I'm a beginner, I have few more questions related to previous one. (1) When exactly do we use Binding frameworks (JIBX, ADB or XMLBeans) ? For instance, the examples given in Axis2 website (i.e. StockQuoteService) referring to simple method call, client calling WS for "getPrice/update" operations but there's no XSD involved, I think this kind of operations can be easily accomplished using POJO option. But I'm confused when to use POJO or anyother Binding framework(JIBX). (2) What is the difference between "XML Processing Model" and "SOAP Processing Model", when do we use these models independently. To my understanding, this is the typical flow of Axis2 services, Client ----calls---> Stub (generated by wsdl2java) ----calls[SOAP request]---> Skeleton Interface (generated by wsdl2java) -->Business Logic And this SOAP request can be handled using any transport (eg. TCP, JMS etc.) Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks. - Anil Nilesh Ghorpade wrote: > > Hi, > > As per my understanding AXIS 2 uses AXIOM API's internally for any XML > related activities.
