Hello Doug

 

I am using WAS 6.1.0.5   (and I think we even had the problems on
earlier release of WAS, such as was 6.0)

 

In the was runtime jar (in the plugin directoy), you will find all of
the WSIF classes - with different implementation than WSIF 2.0

 

The IBM implementation of WSIFServiceImpl.getPort() is really slow -
especially the protected method setupTypeMappings() is horrendous,
especially, when you have a WSDL that has lots of XSD data types
defined.  

 

Hope that helps

Hi!

We are using WSIF on Websphere, and are not aware of any problems - can
you

elaborate on which version you are seeing these problems?

-Doug.

HI all

 

Just a quick opinion.


We have been using WSIF for some web service and lots of POJO bound
invocations. It works well... Things have gone pretty well.   I'd love
to see WSIF move up to a newer WSDL4J parser.

 

He have found a few thread sync problems in WSIF and have been able to
work around those.

 

HOWEVER, we have found that IBM WebSphere runtime jar ALSO includes a
very different version of WSIF. The IBM version has horrible performance
and lots of thread synchronization problems. This has caused us no end
of pain.  In WebSphere, you cannot work the class path to use Apache
WSIF.

 

Therefore, if you plan to use WSIF in WebSphere, I believe you will have
problems. However, if you use it anywhere else, I believe you will find
it to be a pleasant experience.


Thanks

Hi Ahmet,

   I could see the future is bright. We have been using it for a while
and successfully built a service invocation framework using WSIF and
extending some of the features. It is a really good stuff where you want
to invoke various types of services running on different protocol e.g
http, soap, jms, POJO, EJB etc.

We are starting to use some web services first time in our company.
There were few web service calls we had developed in the past and we
were using WSIF. Now we do expect more and more web service calls being
made and we do expect web services becoming an important part of the
architecture in a year or so. 

How do you guys see WSIF in the future? In order to invoke Web Services
do you believe WSIF is the way to go? Or would you say WSIF is legacy
and focus on something else? As I researched little bit, WSIF community
is not very active anymore. There are many other things going on and it
looks like Service Component Artchitecture (SCA) and some Eclipse Web
Tools Platform (WTP) are the ones to consider first. 

Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts on this subject.
