Standalone server questions

[Sean Leblanc <Se...@e-infodata.com>]

I have some questions about adding Axis to an existing application. I want
to be able to use web services to call methods on this application. That
way, I only have one instance of the app running.  
 
Any ideas on the best path to take? I was looking at the "addr" sample, and
I see it utilizes SimpleAxisServer. However, SimpleAxisServer says this in
the API: "This is a simple implementation of an HTTP server for processing
SOAP requests via Apache's xml-axis. This is not intended for production
use. Its intended uses are for demos, debugging, and performance profiling."
 
Are there other, better classes to use for this, then?
 
TIA,
Sean LeBlanc

I know of three SOAP implementations for Java that directly support an
embedded configuration (where you don't need to deploy the service into an
app/SOAP server). Those three are Killdara Vitiris, Systinet WASP, and The
Mind Electric GLUE.

You can also do the same with Axis, but you need to get a separate
embeddable HTTP/servlet server. I recommend Jetty. See
http://jetty.mortbay.org/jetty/.

  If you want to make a simple SOAP server using C++, try gSOAP. It does not
need a web server and is free.

  Axis as a server is more suited for environments where Apache is running.
You can use Axis (Java) or gSOAP (C++) as a standalone client.
