Serving rpc/encoded and doc/literal

[Al Baker <aj...@comcast.net>]

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to have a single web app serve out
both an rpc/encoded service and a doc/literal service?  The use case I'm
looking at is to support backwards compatibility and not force a huge
upgrade for all clients.

On a related note, when will Axis2 support rpc/encoded?

Thanks,
Al

Support for SOAP encoding requires a significant development effort
and IMO is not a high priority. (There are lots of much more critical
features that definitely have a higher priority, in any case.) SOAP
encoding is not permitted by WS-I, and it is an optional feature in
SOAP 1.2. Given than Axis2 is a third generation service engine, aimed
at addressing the future requirements of web services, SOAP encoding
just doesn't fit. People that need to support SOAP encoding should use
Axis rather than Axis2.

Note that Sun's JAX-WS RI doesn't support SOAP encoding, and they have
no plans to add support for it either. You must use the JAX-RPC RI
instead.

But -- if you feel this is a higher priority than I do, please recruit
a team to develop the code.
