Apache AXIS is an implementation of the SOAP ("Simple Object Access Protocol")
|
||
|
|
submission to W3C.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From the draft W3C specification:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchange of information in a decentralized,
|
||
|
|
distributed environment. It is an XML based protocol that consists of three
|
||
|
|
parts:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
an envelope that defines a framework for describing what is in a message and
|
||
|
|
how to process it, a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of
|
||
|
|
application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing remote
|
||
|
|
procedure calls and responses.
