The current Early Review Draft for JSR-181 in Section 3.2 states that "the metadata used to annotate the Java WS file is conformant to the JSR-175 specification and the specific JSR-181 annotation type declarations that are defined in this specification (using the JSR-175 metadata facility)". Since JSR-175 is already an approved standard and part of JDK 1.5, it seems unlikely that this position is going to change.
Commons-Attributes is an alternative mechanism for specifying metadata within source code. We could have a discussion of the relative pros/cons, but it seems that to be able to declare the WS implementation as compliant w/ JSR-181 will require usage of JSR-175 annotations as the metadata facility. > -----Original Message----- > From: Sanjiva Weerawarana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 1:19 AM > To: Beehive Developers > Subject: Fw: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Commons-Attributes 2.1 Released > > > Hi- how does this relate to the proposed JSR181 project here? > > Sanjiva. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Leo Sutic" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[email protected]>; > <[email protected]>; > <[email protected]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 3:20 AM > Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Commons-Attributes 2.1 Released > > > > The Jakarta Commons team is happy to announce the release of Commons > > Attributes 2.1.
