-<h2>Introduction</h2>
-
-<p>Despite the flexibility, interoperability and global acceptance of XML,
-there are times when serializing data into XML does not make sense. Web
-services users may need to transmit binary attachments of various sorts like
-images, drawings, xml docs, etc together with SOAP message. Such data are
-often in a particular binary format.<br>
-</p>
-
-<p>Traditionally, two techniques have been used in dealing with opaque data
-in XML;</p>
-<ol>
-  <li><strong>"By value"</strong></li>
-
-  <blockquote>
-    <p>Sending binary data by value is achieved by embedding opaque data (of
-    course after some form of encoding) as element or attribute content of
-    the XML component of data. The main advantage of this technique is that
-    it gives applications the ability to process and describe data based and
-    looking only on XML component of the data.</p>
-
-    <p>XML supports opaque data as content through the use of either base64
-    or hexadecimal text encoding. Both these techniques bloat the size of the
-    data. For UTF-8 underlying text encoding, base64 encoding increases the
-    size of the binary data by a factor of 1.33x of the original size, while
-    hexadecimal encoding expands data by a factor of 2x. Above factors will
-    be doubled if UTF-16 text encoding is used. Also of concern is the
-    overhead in processing costs (both real and perceived) for these formats,
-    especially when decoding back into raw binary.</p>
-  </blockquote>
-  <li><strong>"By reference"</strong>
-
-    <blockquote>
-      <p>Sending binary data by reference is achieved by attaching pure
-      binary data as external unparsed general entities outside of the XML
-      document and then embedding  reference URI's to those entities as
-      elements or attribute values. This prevents the unnecessary bloating of
-      data and wasting of processing power. The primary obstacle for using
-      these unparsed entities is their heavy reliance on DTDs, which impedes
-      modularity as well as use of XML namespaces.</p>
-      <p>There were several specifications introduced in the Web services
-      world to deal with this binary attachment problem using the "by
-      reference" technique. <a
-      href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP-attachments">SOAP with Attachments</a>
-      is one such example. Since SOAP prohibits document type declarations
-      (DTD) in messages, this leads to the  problem of not  representing data
-      as part of the message infoset, creating two data models. This scenario
-      is like sending attachments with an e-mail message. Even though those
-      attachments are related to the message content they are not inside the
-      message.  This causes the technologies for processing and description
-      of data based on XML component of the data, to malfunction. One example
-      is  WS-Security.</p>

-<h3>Where Does MTOM Come In?</h3>
-
-<p><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/PR-soap12-mtom-20041116/">MTOM (SOAP
-Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism)</a> is another specification
-which focuses on solving the "Attachments" problem. MTOM tries to leverage
-the advantages of above two techniques by trying to merge the two techniques.
-MTOM is actually a "by reference" method. Wire format of a MTOM optimized
-message is same as the Soap with Attachments message, which also makes it
-backward compatible with SwA endpoints. The most notable feature of MTOM is
-the use of XOP:Include element, which is defined in <a
-href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/PR-xop10-20041116/">XML Binary Optimized
-Packaging (XOP)</a> specification to reference  the binary attachments
-(external unparsed general entities) of the message. With the use of this
-exclusive element the attached binary content logically become inline (by
-value) with the SOAP document even though actually it is attached separately.
-This merges the two realms by making it possible to work only with one data
-model. This allows the applications to process and describe by only looking
-at XML part making reliance on DTDs obsolete. On a lighter note MTOM has
-standardized the referencing mechanism of SwA. Following is an extract from
-the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/PR-xop10-20041116/">XOP</a>
-specification.</p>
-
-<p><em>At the conceptual level, this binary data can be thought of as being
-base64-encoded in the XML Document. As this conceptual form might be needed
-during some processing of the XML Document (e.g., for signing the XML
-document), it is necessary to have a one to one correspondence between XML
-Infosets and XOP Packages. Therefore, the conceptual representation of such
-binary data is as if it were base64-encoded, using the canonical lexical form
-of XML Schema base64Binary datatype (see <a href="#XMLSchemaP2">[XML Schema
-Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition] </a><a
-href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xmlschema-2-20041028/#base64Binary">3.2.16
-base64Binary</a>). In the reverse direction, XOP is capable of optimizing
-only base64-encoded Infoset data that is in the canonical lexical
-form.</em></p>

-Attachments</strong> &amp; <strong>MTOM (SOAP Message Transmission
-Optimization Mechanism).</strong></p>

-<h2>MTOM with Axis2</h2>
-<a name="21"></a>
-
-<h3>Programming Model</h3>
-
-<p>AXIOM is (and may be the first) Object Model which has the ability to hold
-binary data. It has been given this ability by allowing OMText to hold raw
-binary content in the form of javax.activation.DataHandler. OMText has been
-chosen for this purpose with two reasons. One is that XOP (MTOM) is capable
-of optimizing only base64-encoded Infoset data that is in the canonical
-lexical form of XML Schema base64Binary datatype. Other one is to preserve
-the infoset in both sender and receiver (To store the binary content in the
-same kind of object regardless of whether it is optimized or not).</p>
-
-<p>MTOM allows to selectively encode portions of the message, which allows us
-to send base64encoded data as well as externally attached raw binary data
-referenced by "XOP" element (optimized content) to be send in a SOAP message.
-User can specify whether an OMText node which contains raw binary data or
-base64encoded binary data is qualified to be optimized or not at the
-construction time of that node or later. To take the optimum efficiency of
-MTOM a user is advised to send smaller binary attachments using
-base64encoding (None optimized) and larger attachments as optimized
-content.</p>
-<source><pre>        OMElement imageElement = fac.createOMElement("image", omNs);
-
-        // Creating the Data Handler for the image.
-        // User has the option to use a FileDataSource or a ImageDataSource 
-        // in this scenario...
-        Image image;
-        image = new ImageIO()
-                .loadImage(new FileInputStream(inputImageFileName));
-        ImageDataSource dataSource = new ImageDataSource("test.jpg",image);
-        DataHandler dataHandler = new DataHandler(dataSource);
-
-        //create an OMText node with the above DataHandler and set optimized to true
-        OMText textData = <strong>fac.createOMText(dataHandler, true);</strong>
-        imageElement.addChild(textData);
-
-        //User can set optimized to false by using the following
-        //textData.doOptimize(false);</pre>
-</source>
-<p>Also a user can create an optimizable binary content node  using a base64
-encoded string, which contains encoded binary content, given with the mime
-type of the actual binary representation.</p>
-<source><pre>        String base64String = "some_base64_encoded_string";
-        OMText binaryNode =<strong>fac.createOMText(base64String,"image/jpg",true);</strong></pre>
-</source>
-<p>Axis2 uses javax.activation.DataHandler to handle the binary data. All
-optimized binary content nodes will be serialized as Base64 Strings if "MTOM
-is not enabled". One can also create binary content nodes which will not be
-optimized at any case. They will be serialized and send as Base64 Strings.</p>
-<source><pre>        //create an OMText node with the above DataHandler and set "optimized" to false
-        //This data will be send as Base64 encoded string regardless of MTOM is enabled or not
-        javax.activation.DataHandler dataHandler = new javax.activation.DataHandler(new FileDataSource("someLocation"));
-        OMText textData = fac.createOMText(dataHandler, <strong>false</strong>); 
-        image.addChild(textData);</pre>
-</source><a name="22"></a>
-
-<h3>Enabling MTOM Optimization at Client Side</h3>
-
-<p>Set the "enableMTOM" property in the Options to true, when sending
-messages.</p>
-<source><pre>        ServiceClient serviceClient = new ServiceClient ();
-        Options options = new Options();
-        options.setTo(targetEPR);
-        <strong>options.setProperty(Constants.Configuration.ENABLE_MTOM, Constants.VALUE_TRUE);</strong>
-        serviceClient .setOptions(options);</pre>
-</source>

-type of content in the element at runtime using an MTOM attribute extension,
-xmime:contentType. Furthermore, you can identify what type of data
-might be expected in the element using the xmime:expectedContentType. Putting it all
-together, our example element becomes:

-<p>The important point here is we import http://www.w3.org/2005/05/xmlmime and define an element, 'MyBinaryData' , that utilizes MTOM. </p>
-
-<p>The next step is using the Axis2 tool 'WSDL2Java' to generate java source files from this WSDL. See the 'Code Generator Tool' guide for more 
-info.  Here, we define an ant task that chooses XMLBeans as the databinding implementation. We also choose to generate an interface which our 
-Skeleton will implement. The name we list for the WSDL above is mtomExample.wsdl, and we define our package name for our generated source files to be 
-'org.apache.axis2.samples.mtomDatabinding.endpoint' . Our ant task for this example is:

+<p>The important point here is we import http://www.w3.org/2005/05/xmlmime and define an element, 'MyBinaryData' , that utilizes MTOM. </p>
+
+<p>The next step is using the Axis2 tool 'WSDL2Java' to generate java source files from this WSDL. See the 'Code Generator Tool' guide for more 
+info.  Here, we define an ant task that chooses XMLBeans as the databinding implementation. We also choose to generate an interface which our 
+Skeleton will implement. The name we list for the WSDL above is mtomExample.wsdl, and we define our package name for our generated source files to be 
+'org.apache.axis2.samples.mtomDatabinding.endpoint' . Our ant task for this example is:

+<p>Also a user can specify a size threshold for the File caching (in bytes). When this
+threshold value is specified, only the attachments whose size is bigger than
+the threshold value will get cached in files. Smaller attachments will remain
+in Memory.</p>
+
+<p><em>NOTE</em> : It is a must to specify a directory to temporary store the
+attachments. Also care should be taken to <strong>clean that directory</strong> from time to
+time.</p>
+
+<p>The following parameters need to be set in Axis2.xml in order to enable
+file caching.</p>
