[Announce] XML Spy 4.3 Suite now available - New SOAP Debugger.

Dear Apache SOAP Users,

We are pleased to announce the availability of XML Spy 4.3 Suite,
available immediately as a free trial download or free upgrade to
current XML Spy 4.x customers.

Summary of new features:

- SOAP Debugger: The XML Spy SOAP Debugger acts as a web services proxy
between a web services client and server, letting you inspect WSDL
files, single-step through web services transactions, inspect every
request and response XML document, set breakpoints on SOAP functions
(either on the request or on the response), and even define conditional
breakpoints that trigger if a certain request or response contains
selected data that is specified by means of an XPath query.  XML Spy 4.3
Suite supports SOAP debugging on all of the major web services platforms
including Apache SOAP.

- XPath Analyzer: Facilitates testing and debugging of XPath expressions
for use in XSLT stylesheets or XML Schema Identity Constraints.  The
XPath Analyzer can be used in either Grid or Text Views to evaluate &
visualize in real-time, the resulting node set of any XPath expression.
If the result is a list of nodes, each node can be highlighted in the
grid or text views simply by clicking on the node in the result list
window. 
 
- Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SQLXML support: The XML Spy 4 IDE's schema
editor now includes full development support for XML Schemas which
include Microsoft SQLXML extensions, for use in mapping XML schemas to
relational databases. SQLXML is a powerful technology which effectively
bridges the gap between Extensible Markup Language (XML) and relational
data by creating XML views of relational data, abstracting away the
underlying data format.
 
- Support for editing JavaServer Pages (JSP) and many other J2EE
deployment descriptors.
