Author: Vivek Pandey

Date: July 9th, 2007

1. Project Description

JAX-WS RI is the reference implementation of JAX-WS 2.1 specification (JSR 224). JAX-WS RI is an open source project on java.net

JAX-WS RI 2.0 was integrated and shipped with JDK 6 Dec 2006. JAX-WS RI was revised to implement the latest JAX-WS 2.1 API was re-architected for better performance, extensions, better tools etc.

JAX-WS RI customers, such as NetBeans, JCAPS etc. want JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 to be integrated in JDK6 update release, a CCC case 6535162 was filed and the case was presented to SE PAC. Subsequently the integration of JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 was approved by the SE PAC in to JDK6 u3.

2. Release Binding

Patch

JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 - current FCS released version of JAX-WS RI. This version of JAX-WS RI will be integrated in to JDK6u3

3. Dependencies

JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 depends on JAXB RI 2.1.3, SAAJ RI 1.3. bot of which will be integrated together with JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 into JDK6 u3.

JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 is shipped into GF v2/AS 9.1, JCAPS, NB 5.5.1 and also used by several in the developer community.

wsimport CLI wsimport tool in JAX-WS RI 2.1.1 implementation has introduced two new switches, 'target' and 'quiet'. These switches are available from the wsimport CLI and also available thru wsimport ant task. Here is the description of these switches: target - To generate code as per the given JAXWS specification version. version 2.0 will generate compliant code for JAXWS 2.0 spec. Currently supported values are 2.0 and 2.1. The default target version is 2.1. quiet - Suppress wsimport output	Committed	Defined by WSARC/2006/586
xjc CLI xjc tool in JAX-B 2.1 implementation has introduced a new switch. This switch is available from the xjc CLI and thru xjc ant task target - option specifies the runtime JAXB version that the generated code will run against. Defaults to the latest version known to the compiler. Currently supported values are 2.0 and 2.1	Committed	Defined by WSARC/2006/586
