update on axis-c++
Hi Everyone,
I would like to give an update on the axis-c++ effort that we're
doing here in Sri Lanka. As some of you know, I have organized
an open-source software foundation in Sri Lanka to get local
developers to participate in open-source projects. Axis-C++ is
our first effort. This is being worked on by the following
folks:
Chaminda Divitotawela
Nuwan Gurusinghe
Susantha Kumara
Damitha Kumarage
Nadika Ranasinghe
Sanjaya Sinharage
Roshan Weerasuriya
Susantha, Damitha, Sanjaya and Roshan are working full-time on this
effort. Nuwan and Chaminda are spending 2 days a week and Nadika
one day a week. Susantha is the technical lead of the team. I work
with them to help understand stuff and to help guide the
architecture etc..
I had previously organized a group of folks from here to work on
a client-side C++ impl - that is currently committed at
ws-axis/contrib/Axis-C++
The current work has focused on the server-side. We intend to go
back to the client-side code and bring it in alignment with the
server-side code, but the work so far been on the server side.
We had a phone call with Dims a while ago when he explained the
overall Axis architecture and what he wanted us to do before the
work could be moved to the mainstream. The current status is that
we've developed an architecture for the server side and prototyped
most of it. A draft document explaining the architecture is
attached. The model supports all the usual Axis concepts (WSDD,
handlers, etc.) but is a bit different in the internal guts. I
assume that is not a problem .. the main motivation to change was
to try to move to a more pull-oriented approach and hopefully a
higher performant approach. All of this stuff can be discussed and
adjusted once we get this going mainstream, of course.
I have also attached a jar file containing the main source. The
attached isn't enough to compile (it doesn't include all the
dependencies) but enough to give you an idea of the current status.
What I'd like to do is the following:
- commit the code to the main repository at ws-axis/c++/...
- make the authors committers
- run in regular mode: design, implement, etc. etc.
Dims suggested that we take a vote on how to move forward. Here's
my +1 to the above approach.
What do you think?
Sanjiva.

Sanjiva,
I think we have enough votes (9 +1's and no +/-0's and no -1's). Can you please send a note to
root@apache.org and CC pmc@ws.apache.org with a request for creation of id's and requesting karma
for CVS.
Request should include
- Names of individuals
- Their email addresses
- Their Preferred apache id
- Link to email archives for the VOTE
- Name of project that they need access to
Also,
Each individual needs to sign and send the "Contributor License Agreement" (see PDF @
http://incubator.apache.org/) to apache.
Thanks,
dims

That's actually what's being voted on .. whether to create a new dir
right under xml-axis and give it first-class life.

OK sounds good. Maybe you can help get that up once the code is
committed properly etc.?

Yes that's the intent.

I think Glen answered this amply. ;-)

a) ultimately the CPP thing should get a life of its own and branch off
b) I'd like to see an ant build file for it; ant-contrib.sf.net has the
cpptasks.jar that works for this
c) what is the test strategy? CppUnit? Are there lessons from the Java
