I know there is a SOAP-over-UDP spec but I don't see that anyone has implemented a package for handling it.

I am looking to modernize a legacy application that uses UDP packets (in both directions) as a data-transmission mechanism. It's written in C with C structs passed in datagrams between the client and server. The system is kept in synch by means of "synchronization" messages sent from server to client (that's the reason for bidirectionality). These are used instead of "return values" to the original messages. Messages sent from client to server do not expect returns. Since the server part will only be wrapped (not a complete rewrite) it seems necessary to keep the UDP semantics in any modernization.

SOAP-over-UDP may be overkill, but can anyone tell me if it's been implemented, either by CXF or someone else?
