CXF helps you build and develop services using frontend programming APIs, like JAX-WS and JAX-RS. These services can speak a variety of protocols such as SOAP, XML/HTTP, RESTful HTTP, or CORBA and work over a variety of transports such as HTTP, JMS or JBI.</p><h2 id="Index-News">News</h2><h3 id="Index-July21,2014-ApacheCXF3.0.1/2.7.12/2.6.15released!">July 21, 2014 - Apache CXF 3.0.1/2.7.12/2.6.15 released!</h3><p>The Apache CXF team is proud to announce the availability of the latest patch releases. Over 65 JIRA issues were fixed for 2.7.11 which many of those fixes back ported to 2.6.14.</p><p>This is mostly a patch release to fix problems and issues that users have encountered.</p><p>Downloads are available&#160;<a shape="rect" href="download.html">here</a>.</p

CXF JAX-WS support includes some extensions to the standard that make it significantly easier to us
 e, compared to the reference implementation: It will automatically generate code for request and response bean classes, and does not require a WSDL for simple cases.</p><p>It also includes a "simple frontend" which allows creation of clients and endpoints without annotations. CXF supports both contract first development with WSDL and code first development starting from Java.</p><p>For REST, CXF also supports a JAX-RS frontend.</p><ul><li><strong>Ease of use:</strong> CXF is designed to be intuitive and easy to use. There are simple APIs to quickly build code-first services, Maven plug-ins to make tooling integration easy, JAX-WS API support, Spring 2.x XML support to make configuration a snap, and much more.</li><li><strong>Binary and Legacy Protocol Support:</strong> CXF has been designed to provide a pluggable architecture that supports not only XML but also non-XML type bindings, such as JSON and CORBA, in combination with any type of transport.</li></ul><p>To get started using
