New release
Welcome to this special year-end preview of Java Web Services Developer Pack (Java WSDP) 2.0. We plan to amplify our current Java WSDP web site shortly to reflect and describe more fully this exciting new release. However, "code is king," so this new version of Java WSDP leads the way for now, and in January 2006 you will see updated pages about Java WSDP 2.0.

The Java WSDP 2.0 provides developer choice and flexibility by supporting the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1, the open-source Java EE 5 application server ("GlassFish"), and Tomcat 5.0 for Java WSDP.

New architecture
The big news in Java WSDP 2.0 is its rearchitected approach to Web services and Web application development. We call this the "integrated stack." This new stack is based on key components in the Java WSDP 2.0:

  • JAX-WS 2.0 EA (Java API for XML Web Services): This component is the successor to JAX-RPC. It fully delegates all data-binding functionality to the new JAXB component. (An enhanced version of JAX-RPC with bug fixes, etc., is still included in Java WSDP 2.0 to insure backward compatibility for Web services based on the Java WSDP 1.x architecture.)
  • JAXB 2.0 EA (Java API for XML Binding): This component now contains all of the data-binding functionality, some of which used to be part of JAX-RPC in previous Java WSDP releases. The new JAXB also supports a wider range of data-binding formats and capabilities.
  • SAAJ 1.3 EA (SOAP with Attachments API for Java): This component includes support for SOAP 1.2 and follows the latest SAAJ (JSR 67) specification developments.
  • XWSS 2.0 EA2 (XML Web Services Security): This enhanced component has added, among other features, dynamic response, dynamic policy, and explicit support for JAX-WS scenarios.

New specifications
Java WSDP 2.0 includes early access implementations for several new key APIs that are in Java EE 5 and in Java SE 6. The implementations for JAX-WS 2.0, JAXB 2.0 SAAJ 1.3 and StAX are all done as open source and are part of the Java WSDP group in the GlassFish Community. You can stay connected with developments in that community via The Aquarium news blog.

Based on these new components, the integrated stack also includes Fast Infoset 1.0.1, which is implemented in the JAX-WS and SAAJ components.

The Java WSDP 2.0 also includes a new, experimental release. JAX-WSA 1.0 EA (Java API for XML Web Services Addressing) provides a first implementation of the WS-Addressing specification, currently under development at the World Wide Web Consortium. (Access to the JAX-WSA component requires a custom installation of the Java WSDP 2.0.)

The Java WSDP components include implementations of the core WS and XML Java technologies that are fully tested against different containers. Tutorial and documentation are available separately. The Java WSDP community at Java.Net provides more timely, but less stable, builds.
