It took me more effort to setup an Apache SOAP environment for
2.2 than it took for 2.0. You'll need the following:

* Java Activation Framework 1.0.1 from java.sun.com
* Java Mail 1.2 from java.sun.com
* Apache Xerces 1.4.0 (works fine for me)

You'll need a few more libraries if you want to have full JAXP
1.1 compatibility:

* Apache Xalan 2.1.0
* Bytecode Engineering Library (BCEL) 4.2.5
* CUP Parser Generator
* GNU getopt for Java
* GNU regex for Java

I prefer to import the sources, but VAJ compiler can't handle a
particuler use of inner classes in Xalan source and I don't
remember what the required change is. If you don't need JAXP 1.1
compatibility, you don't need Xalan. Of course, you might always
import the original JAXP 1.1 download from Sun, that comes with
the Sun Crimson XML parser and no source.

You will want to download and install the new Apache Tomcat 3.2.1
VAJ feature from VA Developer Domain, but I suppose you can use
any Servlet 2.2/JSP 1.1 container.

Even though the following list of libraries is used by Apache
SOAP, I find that I don't use them in my setup, and you can get
away with a few compile errors in VAJ as long as your code
doesn't end up using the problematic code:

* BSF (Bean Scripting Framework)
* IBM SMTP Beans
* IBM POP3 Beans
* IBM XMI Toolkit
* JSSE (Java Secure Socket Extension) 1.0.2

Configuration of Tomcat is similar to Apache SOAP 2.0, but you
have a few more options you can use in a seperate configuration
file.

I hope this helps,

--CK.
