I know only one implementation of attachment support in Axis which is org.apache.axis.attachments.AttachmentsImpl. This class supports both DIME and MIME. That's why I'm asking myself what the configuration option is good for and if another implementation might be planned.
using the property attachments.implementation an alternative implementation for the attachment support can be configured. What is this good for? Are there alternative implementations already?
Thanks! Thilo
Building in hooks for customization by developers for other projects is the way things are *supposed* to be done. This way, if you need support for something other than DIME or MIME or you needed to tweak existing functionaliy, you could do so without modifying Axis code. That's what the configuration option is good for.
I don't know whether another implementation is planned.
