Hello Everyone, I am very new to Web services and Axis, so please bear with me. (once I wrote a simple service which validates some incomming values againts our database.)
I am now dealing with a big SOA system and I do not really know where to start. This is the scenario. I have to write a service which will be receiving SOAP messages from a server ( I am subscribing to messages). the message contains some properties and inside the BODY it has an XML file which contains the data I need to process. I have to answer by sending messages back which of course are standard SOAP messages. (some XML content inside the envelope-body). My question is: what technologies should I use here. - should I use AXIS ? (ps I have only written a web-service where you needed to do WSDL etc). - or apache SOAP + CASTOR to deserialize and serialize the xml? if you say, axis is a good way to go, where should I start ? Thanks Istvan
