Well -- I guess it shouldn't be a secret that a book on Axis is being developed by O'Reilly.
The book, "Axis: The Definitive Guide" (working title) is being written by a group of four talented developers/authors. Of the four, two (dims, chris haddad) are axis commiters. The other two (myself, paul brown) are experienced axis users. The book is under development now and will likely be out in the Fall sometime. It will come with extensive sample apps and its coverage will be pretty wide and deep. Coverage will be up to date with whatever version oc Axis is out at that time. In fact, I know Chris has been fixing bugs in Axis as he runs across them in his writing. We're working with the latest code. Others on this list have been reviewing chapters (thank you!) as they've been getting completed. I expect to get some decent sleep sometime after it comes out.... :-) Kevin PS. My Struts book ( http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=2W1E6CWR3D&isbn=0672324725&itm=4 ) contains a chapter on integrating Struts with Axis and has an Axis sample app. |---------+-----------------------------> | | | | | "Bhanu Pabreja" | | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | | 07/09/2003 05:23 PM | | | Please respond to axis-user| | | | |---------+-----------------------------> >-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | cc: (bcc: Kevin Bedell/Systems/USHO/SunLife) | | Subject: RE: Reading material on AXIS | >-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| This books seems to be fine I checked on Amazon. But it was publihsed in 2001. What I think is required is a book which is new and is Web Services with AXIS. Other books talk about Java and thus reference sun apis which are cumbersome to use. I think definitely AXIS would be the way to go in the future along with some commercial products like Systinet. So if we have a book which looks at this important topic from AXIS point of view it will be really be beneficial.
