[Users-cxf] Asynchronous services with ws-addressing?

[sol myr <so...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I'm new to cfx & jaxws, and would appreciate hints on the following:

We'd like to  implement an asynchronous web-service as follows:
- The client should support both Callback and Polling.
- There is *no* reliability requirement  (these are non-critical operations). 

The catch is, we'd like to use WS-Addressing . 
Namely, the server will reply to the client address indicated by <wsd:ReplyTo>, and the client will examine the <wsa:RelatesTo> tag in order to correlate between reply & request.

I found nice CXF samples for "ws_addressing" and for "jaxws_asyc", but couldn't figure out how to make them work together (the ws_addressing sample doesn't do callbacks, and the jaxws_asyc sample doesn't use ws-addressing)...
Would anyone happen to know if CFX can make them work together?

Thanks very much.

The use of JAX-WS async and WS-Addressing are *completely independent*.

JAX-WS async is just a convenience mechanism to avoid tieing up a
client-side application thread while awaiting the response.

WS-Addressing with a non-anonymous <wsa:ReplyTo> allows you to avoid
tieing up a client->server connection while awaiting the response.

These orthogonal mechanisms should work fine togerher to allow you to
avoid tieing up either a thread *or* a connection.

Cheers,
Eoghan
