Hi everybody,
I just wanted to let you know about my experience in creating a
ws-client with cxf compared to axis2.
I have to say that client generation using Axis2 is really much easier.
Here are the reasons:
- In case you just want to call some remote operations (what usually is
enough for me) without any extra handlers and stuff you need NO
configuration files at all.
- No extra configuration needed when calling a service via https.
- No wsdl-file needed after you generated the code using WSDL2Java.
- Only half as much of jars are needed.
It took me at least two days to get a client working using cxf - using
axis2 it took me about 2 hours.
Don't get me wrong: I'm not an Axis2 fan or something and I don't want
to offend anybody. I just want to share my experience and give a hint
that CXF is sometime really hard to handle, especially with all the
configuration, which can cost a lot of time when you're not an expert in it.
Best regards
Abid
