JBoss Application Server 5.0.0 GA released to the community

"We have been waiting for that day for a long time. Too long certainly. But here we are, the community version of JBoss.org AS 5.0 just got released.Our foundations are now ready to absorb the changes the Java landscape will go through in the next 5 years. We have the strongest API-agnostic implementation of the core middleware services - our DNA (messaging, persistence, security, remoting, etc.). We have the most evolutive and flexible microcontainer on the market. Thanks to those two, we are able to morph our DNA to whatever API/programming model the market might move towards, and implement several of those simultaneously if needed. They are the (important) bells and whistles on top of our rock-solid and non-monolithic engine."....


JAX-WS 2.1 RI Released

Friday 02 February 2007

JAX-WS 2.1 FCS RI is a Web Services framework that provides tools and infrastructure to develop Web Services solutions for the end users and middleware developers.

The JAX-WS team announced the general availability of JAX-WS 2.1 RI .

JAX-WS 2.1 FCS RI is a Web Services framework that provides tools and infrastructure to develop Web Services solutions for the end users and middleware developers.

The important thing about JAX-WS 2.1 RI is that it is a complete re-architecture and re-write of JAX-WS 2.0. We did it for two main reasons - to make it high performing and extensible! See the reason we did it and also our 2.0.1 M1 release with these architectural changes and merge of 2.0.1 into 2.1 .

JAX-WS 2.1 RI brings in new productivity features and also extension APIs for the middleware developers to enhance JAX-WS 2.1 with their custom extensions, such as WSIT , Open JBI component , and Glassfish v2 .

This release brings in the highly pluggable framework through abstractions such as Tube and Message . Refer to the latest architecture document . This architecture document is a glorified javadoc which includes all the JAXWS RI specific APIs. JAXWS 2.1 FCS has many bug fixes made for interoperability with .NET 3.0. This is made mostly possible due to WSIT, which uses JAXWS plugabble architecture to plug in support for WS-Metadata, WS-Policy, WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Transaction, WS-SecureConversation and WS-Security.

If you wish to use JAX-WS 2.1 FCS RI in a Java EE container in a Java EE portable manner you need to use the standard Java EE 5 deployment descriptor; please refer to the Java EE 5 or Glassfish documentation/samples. The majority of the documentation included with JAX-WS is valid with Java EE 5 as well.
