After my session

Hi all,

I feel that I finished my session successfully, in particular,  
admitting that it was my first public speech in English :-) Here are  
what I'd like to announce.

1. Checking in StAX ME, Mirae WS, and samples

Now I'm working on trivial stuffs like adding a license comment and  
structuring packages, and hope to have them in Mirae SVN very very  
soon within this week.

2. Documentation

I'll post the slides of my session (temporarily available at http:// 
www.iasandcb.pe.kr/resources/ApacheCon2005.pdf) and introductions to  
those new features with the code check-in.

3. RPC model

Although personally I used not to be actively supporting the current  
RPC-SAX, I came to realize its importance and usefulness as I have  
developed RPC-StAX (quite ironical, but it's true to me). I  
appreciate the work on RPC-SAX and its value deeply.

In the meantime, RPC-StAX supports only doc/lit. It could be possible  
to modify it to support rpc/lit, but I think it's way better to use  
wrapped (doc) style rather than rpc style. That's also what WS-I  
Basic Profile implicitly is driving.

In regard to security, especially on CLDC, more security over HTTPS  
could be too heavy to bring in. Surely CDC is good for that.

As for SOAP headers, yes, the capability of accessing SOAP headers is  
missed in JSR 172, but message-oriented style in Mirae WS enables you  
to manipulate SOAP headers freely. Normally SOAP headers are not JAX- 
RPC jobs but SAAJ jobs, particularly handlers, which is not available  
in JSR 172. If you need more authentication than basic HTTP header  
authentication provided in Axis J2ME (and RPC-StAX as well), I think  
handlers should be there. Probably combining message-oriented style  
and RPC-StAX can be a solution to that.

Just like JAX-RPC 1.1 and JAX-WS 2.0, I'd like to put RPC-SAX and RPC- 
StAX on Mirae. In other words, Mirae XML (SAX parser) and RPC (based  
on SAX) remain and a new line-up, Mirae WS starts with RPC-StAX,  
message-oriented style, and asynchronous clients.

Thank you for your interest and support,

Ias
