Hi Folks, I'm a bit confused about the relationship between Axis and JAX-RPC, can someone outline it please?
As background; http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=679469 Thanks in advance, Toby -----Original Message----- From: Gonia, Philip T [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 November 2005 22:10 To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: Re: is there an advantage of using axis on client side instead of jax rpc? Sorry about the last post it was an accident. Anne, in your view, how does this impact current Axis application development. Are current Axis aware applications obsolete even before they are released at this point?
