Hi Everybody,
Could some one point out how WSIF fits into the Apache Axis picture.
Is WSIF being used behind the scenes when we use the clients generated
by wsdl2java?
hi,
WSIF <http://ws.apache.org/wsif/overview.html> is a service invocation framework that can invoke any service described in WSDL. service invocation is handled by a WSIF providers that encapsulates one invocation protocol/transport and corresponds to a binding in WSDL. the WSIF SOAP provider is using AXIS to create SOAP invocation and there are providers for SOAP/JMS, EJB, JCA, local Java classes. you can also add your own provider and describe WSDL binding to trigger this invocation provider.
HTH,
