ANNOUNCE : Axis 1.2 RELEASE
Hi folks: After *much* too long, the Axis team would like to announce the release of Axis 1.2 final. You can get it at: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/ws/axis/1_2/ (if your favorite mirror doesn't have it yet try another, it's propagating now) A few words about this release - * A LOT of things have been cleaned up/fixed since 1.1, but 1.2 is not yet a perfect beast. We know there are still issues that, although they didn't block this release, are important to our user base. We will be working to resolve these in the near term, which brings us to... * This took way too much time. We will (for the remainder of Axis 1.X's lifetime and hopefully all of Axis 2.0's...) be focusing much more aggressively on the release early and often mantra. Expect to see more fixes and more official releases near term. * Thanks to EVERYONE who submitted bug reports, patches, and (especially) good, concise test cases. Without your help we wouldn't have been able to make half the progress we did. * As always, please send questions/comments to axis-user@ws.apache.org, and development-related issues to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Issues may be checked and filed at http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS Onwards to 1.Next... Thanks, --Glen on behalf of the Axis team

[axis2] Re: switch from Callback/AxisCallback (with problems)
Hi Michele: Michele Mazzucco wrote: it looks to me that the callback API has changed a lot :(. Yes, based on a couple of mailing list threads a while back. The new interface is intended to be cleaner, richer, and more flexible. How can I manage the scenario when the same callback is used to receive several responses?, how do I know when all messages have been received? If you're talking about a custom MEP like OUT-IN-IN, for each in message you will receive an onMessage(msgContext) event. Then at the completion of the MEP (as determined by the OperationClient, as per usual) you will receive an onComplete() event. Furthermore, even if I don't want to switch from Callback to AxisCallback, the setComplete() method is now final, which seems to prevent me to use the same callback instance to receive/process multiple responses. setComplete() is final because it must call notify() to wake up any threads blocked on this object (this change was made before deprecating the class). I'm not sure what you're getting at here exactly... can you explain your use-case in more detail? If there's something we're missing we'll fix it, but I don't yet understand what you're trying to do.

Re: [ANN][Axis2] Axis2 1.3-RC2 release
Hi Michele: As it explains in the JavaDoc, onMessage(msgContext) is called every time a NON-FAULT message is received. So if you had a custom OUT-IN-IN MEP, that method would usually be called twice. The onComplete() method is *always* called at the end of an MEP, regardless of the outcome. So for a standard OUT-IN MEP, you will get exactly one of [onMessage(), onFault(), onError()] followed by onComplete(). If this wasn't made clear by the JavaDoc, let us know so we can attempt to improve it. Thanks, --Glen Michele Mazzucco wrote: oops... the two methods are actually onMessage() and onComplete() [1] Michele [1] http://www.nabble.com/switch-from-Callback-AxisCallback-% 28with-problems%29-tf4118188.html On Sun, 2007-07-22 at 21:45 -0400, Eran Chinthaka wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Michele Mazzucco wrote: Deepal, when shall I use AxisCallback.onMessage() instead of AxisCallback.onMessage(MessageContext msgContext)?

Re: Axis to Axis2 migration doubt
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How to achieve same in Axis2? I can not able to find out way to define parameter as OUT type with AXIS2. could you please update me with way of achieving same with AXIS2? Hi Deepak! 2 comments here. First, the Web Services Application Server (WSAS) from WSO2, which you can find at http://wso2.com/products/wsas, contains an Axis2 custom deployer for Axis1 services. This allows you to drop your existing service classes (jars) and server-config.wsdd into the Axis2-based server, and get some of the benefits of Axis2 (Modules, etc) without having to rewrite your code. You might want to check that out as a first step. Second, I definitely think that the holder concept is of great value, and it would be nice if Axis2 supported it in the native ADB databinding. Could you perhaps file a JIRA about this? Thanks, --Glen - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[axis2] [IMPORTANT] JDK 1.4 compatibility - feedback requested
Hi Axis2 developers and users! There has been a bunch of discussion lately revolving around the question of JDK1.4 compatibility. It has been suggested that Axis2 move to JDK 1.5, in order to gain the benefits of things like generics, built-in concurrency (no backport lib), and annotations. Some folks feel that there are enough people out there still in a 1.4 environment that we should hold off, and others think we should bite the bullet and move to 1.5. HERE'S YOUR CHANCE TO PROVIDE VALUABLE INPUT! Are you using, or planning to use, Axis2 in an environment that is locked to JDK 1.4? If so, please let us know by responding to this thread and telling us (if you can) about the particulars of what's tying you to 1.4 - is it your app server? Company policy? Something else? We'd really like to take good care of our users, and doing that involves figuring out whether we can jump into 1.5-land or if we need to keep things working with 1.4.

Re: [Axis2] Dynamic Phase support
Deepal Jayasinghe wrote: I just implemented and commit the initial implementation of the dynamic phase support :( I mentioned that I was working on this, didn't I? [1] It's always unfortunate when there's duplicated work. If I'd known you were planning to work on it, one of us could have saved some time or we could have worked together to spec it out. I'll review your implementation, Deepal, but I think I want a little more functionality. For instance, there may be multiple before/after phases - if my phase needs to be before phase2 AND before phase3, I want to be able to specify something like: phase name=MyNewPhase before=phase2,phase3 flow=in,out/ Also, my implementation so far handles resolving constraints even after a module has been deployed, so if one module has the above phase declaration and there isn't a phase2 yet, when the next module gets deployed and defines phase2, it will try to put it after MyNewPhase (if it can't that's an error of course). This means that some orderings for module deployment might not work, but we can grow the (currently very simple) logic into a more complex total-ordering system if we need to. I'll get my stuff checked in ASAP, but if you're planning to do more work in this area, please let me know beforehand?

Thanks, Andreas. Martin, the test you refer to doesn't fail for me when I

Incidentally, I'm in the midst of fixing the poms to include NOTICE and
LICENSE files in all the jars (thanks to Dan Kulp for pointing this out on
IM). Keith just let me know this morning that the WSO2 folks found an issue
they'd like to fix as well, so pending those changes I'll roll out another RC
hopefully by EOD tomorrow, then maybe get a VOTE started early next week.
Thanks,

[ANNOUNCE] Axis2 1.5.1
Hi all: The Apache Axis2 team is pleased to announce the release of Axis2 version 1.5.1. Major Changes Since 1.5: * Fix for the dreaded CLOSE_WAIT problem (JIRA issues 935, 2883, etc). We now share an instance of HTTPClient across each ConfigurationContext (i.e. each Axis2 server or ServiceClient) - connection reuse is now automatic. This means the REUSE_HTTP_CLIENT flag is no longer necessary or useful, nor is creating your own MultithreadedHttpConnectionManager. We also now throw a useful exception after 30 seconds if you DO run into connection starvation issues. * Transport deployer is now actually functional, and getListenerManager() in ConfigurationContext now creates a new LM if there isn't one already. * Fix for AXIS2-4034, module versions now support real versions like 1.5.1 * NPE problem (see AXIS2-4114) fixed in MessageContext while retrieving policy. You can find the new version at the usual location: http://ws.apache.org/axis2 (please note that it may be an hour or two before all the mirrors update) Please report any issues via JIRA: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2. As always, we welcome any and all feedback at: axis-...@ws.apache.org - for developer-related questions/concerns axis-user@ws.apache.org - for general questions, usage, etc. Also, don't forget that ApacheCon 2009 is around the corner, November 2-6 in Oakland CA!

[ANNOUNCE] Axis Top Level Project!
Hi all: Just wanted to officially (and a bit belatedly) announce that as of the December board meeting, we've agreed to create a new Top Level Project for Axis1, Axis2, all the modules (i.e. Rampart, Sandesha, Kandua, Savan), and the commons transports. In other words, everything that has to do with Axis will now live under axis.apache.org instead of ws.apache.org. I'll follow up with a more detailed note in a day or two, including a FAQ and descriptions of the logistics. We're going to do our best to make sure that the community is disrupted as little as possible during the transition, and you'll get warning before we do the actual moves of things like SVN and the mailing lists. I'm going to temporarily be the chair for both projects. The rest of the subprojects under Web Services are going to be reviewed over the next few months and we'll decide their dispositions - the plan is basically to promote the active ones to TLPs, and retire the inactive ones to the Attic. It's possible that the WS project itself may remain to house a few subprojects into the future, or that it will disappear after everything has been moved. Stay tuned. In the meanwhile, business as usual for all the non-Axis projects. This is a great step forward towards focusing the development effort and community around Axis, and thanks to everyone who helped to discuss and vote upon this resolution over the past year or so. Regards, --Glen
