WSO2 Web Services Framework/C, v1.0.0 - Features

Feature

Description

Comprehensive Support for Web Services Standards

WSO2 WSF/C supports the basic Web services standards including SOAP 1.1, SOAP 1.2 and MTOM.

WSF/C also supports the following WS-* specifications:

  • WS-Addressing

  • WS-Policy

  • WS-Security

  • WS-SecurityPolicy

  • WS-ReliableMessaging

  • WS-Eventing

Proven Interoperability

WSO2 WSF/C features proven interoperability with Microsoft .NET, WSO2 WSAS (Apache Axis2/Java based Web services application server) and other J2EE implementations. The basic SOAP level interoperability as well as WS-* specification implementations have been tested and proven to interoperate.

Portability and Platform Support

WSO2 WSF/C has been tested on:

  • Windows XP - Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1

  • Windows XP - Microsoft Visual C++ 8.0

  • Linux – gcc 4.1.1

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant) - gcc 3.4.3

  • Sun Solaris 2.10 x86 - gcc 3.

  • MacOS 10.4.10 - gcc 4.0.1

Web Server Extensions

WSO2 WSF/C can be deployed as a server-side extension within a Web server, such as Apache Web Server or Microsoft IIS. It also includes an HTTP server and can be deployed as a stand-alone server.

Transport Abstraction

With the design characteristics of Axis2/C, server and client transports can be plugged in as desired. It comes with an XMPP transport implementation, and one can extend the number of supported transports using the abstraction APIs.

XML Parser Abstraction

With the design characteristics of Axis2/C, like in the case of transports, any XML parser can be plugged in as desired.

WSDL2C Code Generation

Using the Axis2/Java code generation tool, one can generate code for both WSDL 1.1 and WSDL 2.0. Data binding support is also available with Axis Data Binding (ADB).
