hi for the next project i am working on i am evaluating the currently available soap implementations. because we are using unix as a host system and we are working in a pure-java environment i am looking especially for java impls of soap. also it should incooperate with jboss or hp bluestone. and there are only a few impls available. glue (hm, to heavy for us), axis (still alpha), and soap4j (based on the xml soap). so there is only the apache soap in the list for evaluation. so i have downloaded the apache soap 2.2 and jboss 2.4.4 with tomcat 4.0.1 and followed the installation instructions. also tried the samples and everything seemed to be fine. but i have still one big problem: the services currently in use have been deployed with the interactive deployer tool or with the admin web page. but this is not very useful if this is a production environment and everything should happen automagically. and the use of a command line tool is not very automagically. is there no way about defining the services in a deplyment descriptor or a configuration file? the binary deployedservices.ds is IMHO not a solution. and the other not so urgent question: why have the service classes to be in the classpath and on the other hand happens the deployment dynamically? i think this a problem in the concept of the soap implementation. any ideas?
