Advantages of Axis2 over Axis 1.3

 

Hi all,

 

I am a new to axis. Can anybody please tell me the advantages and
disadvantages of Axis2 over Axis 1.3?

 

 

Regards, 
Rakesh Thawait

To extend Rakesh's question ...

Is the transition of legacy code from Axis 1.3 to Axis 2 easy ?

Thanks

And just to clarify the assertion made on Axis1: Support for WS-Addressing
and asynchronous requests has been added in the current SVN code, after
the release of 1.4, and AFAIK it has not been released yet.

Definetely, it was not present in Axis 1.3, which is the one I assume this
thread is about ;-)

Cheers,
Rodrigo

Yes Axis2 supports Async.

My mistake wasn't about Axis2! My mistake was that I implied that
Axis1 didn't do it.

Paul - I thought you were referring to the advantages of Axis2. So that 
we don't confuse
one too many people, Axis2 does support Async mode - is that correct ?

Current axis1 code does support async and both versions of WS-Addressing 
(2004,2005)

Rakesh

Sure there are a large number of advantages. I'll leave it up to an
Axis1 expert to list the disadvantages!

* Improved performance 6-10 times, reduced memory footprint for large messages
* Better .NET interoperability and support for doc/lit wrapped
* Full support for MTOM for efficient binary data and interop with
.NET, support for very large binary messages
* Much wider support for XML schema binding including several toolkits
(JIBX, JAXB, XMLBeans). XMLBeans on Axis2 currently has the widest
support for schema constructs of any toolkit
* Asynchronous calling model
* Better support for WS-Addressing
* Support for WS-Security, SecureConversation, Trust
* Much better support for WS-ReliableMessaging 1.0 and 1.1
* a whole lot more too.
