Hi,
 
I am trying to find any information about Axis1.2 GUIs.
 
Can anybody help me by commenting on the following...
 
 
WSDL editing
--------------------
 
* No such GUI comes with Axis. Right?
 
* But there are a number of WSDL editors/wizards/validators. For example, here is a list from the Axis wiki http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?AxisProjectPages/WSDLEditors. Any favorites?
 
Axis Administration
-----------------------------
 
* The Apache-AXIS servlet "index.html" is a kind of GUI but it doesn't seem to do much except list currently deployed services.
 
* There is a "Administer Axis" link also off the servlet index.html but I'm not sure what administration fuctions it is supposed to provide? For me it just says
 
Server is running
Current load = 1
 
Is there something I am missing here?
 
* GUI for deployment / undeployment (AdminClient).
 
No GUI for these comes with Axis. Right?
 
* GUI for Java2WSDL / WSDL2Java?
 
No GUI for these tools comes with Axis. Right?
 
* 3rd party tools for Axis Administration
 
I saw the WSABI tool [http://sourceforge.net/projects/wsabi4axis] announced on this list recently but it seemed a very early release - often I just got "This feature is not yet implemented".  Are there any other tools similar to this one specifically for Axis?
 
* I was wondering if GUI Administration would be addressed for JSR109-style deployment with Geronimo/EWS projects
http://wiki.apache.org/ws/FrontPage/Proposals/EnterpriseWebServices but I didn't see mention of anything about a GUI. Anybody know?
 
Web service testing
-----------------------------
 
* No GUI for testing a web service comes with Axis. Right?
 
Actually I did notice the TcpMon tool lets the SOAP request be modified in its GUI but it's a bit fiddly if the message length changes.
 
* When you browse to an Axis web service you see a page saying
 
Hi there, this is an AXIS service!
Perhaps there will be a form for invoking the service here...
 
There was an email in this mailing list recently asking about this GUI and what were the plans for it. But if there was a reply I missed it. Anybody know?
 
*  I thought there were numerous products that can test a generic web service. But I haven't seen them listed in one place. Anybody know a site with such a list?
 
SOAP Monitoring
--------------------------
 
* Axis comes with monitoring tools SOAPMonitor & TcpMon and they do have GUIs.
 
* There are a number of other non-Axis SOAP monitors available. For example, here is a list from the Axis wiki http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?AxisProjectPages/MonitorSOAPTraffic
 
Other
--------
 
* Are there other GUIs I forgot which are absent/present in Axis? 
 
 
Thankyou.
Peter
