There is a proposal [1] for a SOAP over UDP protocol that does exactly that.
It's from Microsoft, but that doesn't mean that is necessarily a hack... IIRC,
there is also a proposal for a SOAP over TCP spec from Sun that uses the same
approach.

Not sure what you mean by "service dispatching should happen with the transport
properties". Can you explain this a bit more?

Using the back channel means that your _interaction_ style is synchronous. Of
course, you can always use the asynchronous _invocation_ style with this, but
that is not really the topic here.

Currently, Axis2 supports the asynchronous interaction style in two different
ways:
* The transport sender waits for the response (see JMS). That is appropriate if
one wants to use the synchronous invocation style with the asynchronous
interaction style.
* WS-Addressing is used. On the client side this requires to open an endpoint
for the asynchronous responses. That endpoint is not linked to a service and
needs to be configured at the transport level (exactly as with HTTP). My first
point was about this case.
[BTW: There is a weakness here in Axis2, because this doesn't provide a
satisfactory solution for the scenario where one wants to use the asynchronous
invocation style with JMS...]

> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Enable the UDP listener in the axis2.xml by adding the following entry:
> <transportReceiver name="udp"
> class="org.apache.axis2.transport.udp.UDPListener">
> <parameter name="transport.udp.port">9999</parameter>
> <parameter name="transport.udp.contentType">text/xml</parameter>
> </transportReceiver>
> 2. Start the server and following NPE will be thrown:

> I was able to reproduce this issue with Synapse and the sample Axis2 server
> that comes with Synapse. I will soon attach a patch.
