| JAXR
is one of the API’s in the Java Web Serviced Developer Pack.
From the Sun web site:
The JavaTM API for XML Registries
(JAXR) provides a uniform and standard Java API for accessing
different kinds of XML Registries. An XML registry is an enabling
infrastructure for building, deploying, and discovering Web services.
Currently there are a variety of specifications for XML registries
including, pre-eminently, the ebXML
Registry and Repository standard, which is being developed
by OASIS and U.N./CEFACT and the UDDI specification,
which is being developed by a vendor consortium.

JAXR enables Java
software programmers to use a single, easy-to-use abstraction
API to access a variety of XML registries. Simplicity and ease
of use are facilitated within JAXR by a unified JAXR information
model, which describes content and metadata within XML registries.
JAXR provides rich metadata capabilities for classification and
association, as well as rich query capabilities. As an abstraction-based
API, JAXR gives developers the ability to write registry client
programs that are portable across different target registries.

JAXR was created based on JSR-093. |
