| JAXM
is the official J2EE API used to make web service calls with a
document style approach. Many of the web
service platform providers now provide JAXM client-side
routines. JAXM is one of the API’s in the Java
Web Serviced Developer Pack.
From the Sun web site:
“The JavaTM API for XML Messaging (JAXM) Optional Package
enables applications to send and receive document oriented XML
messages using a pure Java API. JAXM implements Simple Object
Access Protocol (SOAP) 1.1 with Attachments
messaging so that developers can focus on building, sending, receiving,
and decomposing messages for their applications instead of programming
low level XML communications routines.
This version of the JAXM specification includes the notion
of messaging Profiles. The intent is
to establish a foundation for supporting a family of higher-level
standards-based messaging protocols. An example of a Profile would
be an implementation of ebXML Transportation,
Routing, and Packaging Message Handling Service or the W3C's XMLP
layered on JAXM. Consequently, Java technology developers using
JAXM will have pluggable XML messaging capabilities.
|
These higher-level
protocols frequently implement additional functionality beyond
basic SOAP-based messaging. This additional functionality is often
useful for scalable, robust, and secure messaging frequently required
for reliable messaging applications.”

JAXM was created based on JSR-67.
