Message based web services

Hi,
         I have a query regarding Axis. In Axis we can deploy message based
web services with a WSDD as shown below

<deployment
       xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/"
       xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance">
  <service name="CatalogPublisherService" provider="*java:MSG*">
    <parameter name="className"
      value="xyz"
     />
    <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="publishCatalog"/>
  </service>
</deployment>

Is it possible to do this in the geronimo axis implementation?  Also is this
feature of axis an implementation of any Java spec?
Also the axis site says that it supports transports other than http. Is this
supported in Geronimo?

Thanks in Advance
Manu

If you want to go the non-J2EE route there is always XFire - 
http://xfire.codehaus.org/. You can just create a service class like:

public class MyService {
  public Document getCatalog();
}

See the docs or ping the mailing list for more detail.

Just going to throw out you may want to look at ServiceMix for your  
needs.  Overall, J2EE Web Services don't sound like what you are  
looking for.

We don't support the wsdd files and J2EE web services are very RPC  
focused.  To my knowledge, the closest you can get is using SAAJ  
which gives you a DOM-like version of the message.  But you'd still  
be forced to map that message to a method of a service class.

Not strictly, though it may be influenced by some standard concept.

Http/https only.
