Description
Web Services is the latest trend to hit the software industry. It promises to promote interoperability among disparate applications; i.e., applications written in different languages and running on diverse platforms. This book covers Web services protocols SOAP, WSDL, UDDI and the J2EE APIs that are used with these protocols including: JAX-RPC, JAXM, JWSDL, and JAXR. The author explains in detail how to use these Java APIs with the J2EE platform and also provides detailed information on security issues and interoperability between J2EE platforms and .NET. The book also includes a primer on XML, XSD and JAXP (the Java XML API), which is necessary basis for understanding how to process SOAP messages.

Person
Richard Monson-Haefel currently serves on the J2EE 1.4 and EJB 2.1 expert groups for the Java Community Process. He is a founder of the Apache J2EE Application Server Project (Geronimo) and a lead developer of its J2EE Web Services implementation. He assisted Sun in the development of the SCDJWS Exam. Mr. Monson-Haefel is the author of four best-selling editions of Enterprise JavaBeans, which won the 2001 JavaPRO Reader's Choice award for Best Advanced Java Book, the 1999 Java Developer Journal's Editor's Choice award for Best Java Book, and Amazon's Best of 2001 and Best of 2002 awards. He is also the coauthor of Java Message Service, which won the 2002 Java Developer Journal's Reader's Choice award for Best Java Book.
