I can see the appeal of exposing the web application's code as web
services
using Axis. It seems like exposing Action classes directly as web
services
will be more trouble than it's worth. It would seem better to move the
code
in the Action class into another class (not tied to Struts/Web)
Mike -
If we start with the idea [Kevin's suggestion] that on the Axis side we
develop a Web Service that accepts SOAP Requests with an XML payload and
spins that payload into an HTTP POST/GET to a Struts Application as if
that POST or GET was coming from a Web Browser. Then we need not

Axis and Struts, like ice cream and sex, are both good things, but I
don't
see much benefit to combining them.
I think it depends on the flavor of the Ice Cream... ;-)
*FridayModeOff*
Is the idea behind Axis for Struts to expose Action classes as Web
Services?
Yes.
I still haven't really absorbed the rationale for this, and my
difficulty in answering some of your questions make me willing to
step up and say so.
Maybe it would help if we could frame the goal of the project, in
terms of more than wouldn't it be cool?
How about:
My understanding
True. But somehow, to leverage what struts really is, you would need to
communicate some kind of instructions from the server side controller.
The idea is to have the SOAP request contain essentially the same data as
would be in an HTTP post (or get). Then you invoke Struts Actions the same

Craig M. asked:
I thought the convention for SF-based Java projects was net.sf.package
or something like that?
If the code is later migrated into Struts and/or Axis, package names
changes are pretty trivial, and shouldn't require fixing anything more
than some import statements.
One of the first topics of discussion is where the Axis4Struts entry
point should be?
I can see several possibilities:
One would be to clone/extend the ActionServlet as it is the component in
standard struts that calls the Module's RequestHandlers. The advantage
here would be the

- Should config files be confined to things such as database parameters?
- Tendency for xml config to become a mini programming language in
