TomCat and support of WebServices stacks: JAX-WS vs. Axis

[Ben Stover <bx...@yahoo.co.uk>]

Which type of WebService stacks does TomCat support-out-of-the-box (=without installing additional components):

JAX-WS

   and/or

Axis



Assume I get to a remote server where TomCat is running. How can I check what types of WebServices (and which spec version)
are currently supported by this Tomcat installation?

Ben

Neither. You will have to install either a JAX-WS or an Axis library in
order to provide web services through Tomcat. But, really, that is what
you want. You don't want to be stuck on some specific version of a web
service library when you pick a Tomcat version.

However, installing web services is as easy as dropping a WAR file into
the deployment directory, right? Just make sure that your webapp has a
copy of, say, axis.jar in its lib directory.
