Hi all,

   one of the user guides on the Axis2 web site reads:

"Axis2 uses AXIOM, or the AXIs Object Model, a DOM (Document Object Model) -like structure that is based on the StAX API ( Streaming API for XML). Methods that act as services must take an OMElement as their argument, which represents the payload of the
incoming SOAP message".

POJO WSs don't necessarily impose this requirement. What I am not understanding fully is, why would any web service need to deal SOAP messages? Isn't the purpose of the engine to parse the SOAP message and present the application with the parameters it needs? I guess I have been working with Axis1 for too long but I am just curious about the particular example in the Axis2 User Guide. Don't get me wrong, I fully understand Axis2 and its
functionality but I wanted to know the purpose of this example.

Thanks
