<p>The idea is to provide a really simple &amp; lightweight SOAP stack which can be extended &amp; connected to any transport and binding technology.</p>
<h3><a shape="rect" name="ActiveSoap-Pluggabletransports"></a>Pluggable transports</h3>
<p>With ActiveMQ we've got most common transports covered (TCP, SSL, UDP, multicast, JGroups, JRMS, JXTA, NIO, AIO, Discovery (Zeroconf/ ActiveCluster), reliable transports etc).</p>
<p>Future protocols could be SOAP-over-TCP, SOAP-over-Jabber, FTP / SMTP / file polling etc.</p>
<p>However we should support any kind of transport using any kind of library - since mostly all a transport does is expose a 'packet' which is just a blob of bytes, a String or a stream.</p>
<h3><a shape="rect" name="ActiveSoap-Marshallinglayers"></a>Marshalling layers</h3>
<p>If we then pass data from the transports into a pluggable connector layer which could consist of either</p>
<ul><li>XMLBeans direct</li><li>JAXB</li><li>StAX, SAX, DOM, Source (TrAX processing)</li><li>JAX-RCP endpoints &amp; Axis handlers</li><li>XStream etc</li><li>custom parsing / marshalling tools</li></ul>
<p>Then we can make a highly scalable &amp; performing SOAP stack using any marshalling code required - without having to pay the DOM price.</p>
<h3><a shape="rect" name="ActiveSoap-Customendpoints"></a>Custom endpoints</h3>
<p>There are various possible ultimate endpoints, from Axis stuff to POJOs to JWS and the like - these should all drop into one of the marshalling technologies - use the most efficient one for the endpoint technology you wish.</p>
<h2><a shape="rect" name="ActiveSoap-Issues"></a>Issues</h2>
<ul><li>we need a simple way to write reuable header processors. I suspect writing StAX based ones is gonna be the best way forwards as it makes writing header-based pipeline processors the easiest. But we should make this pluggable.</li></ul>
<ul><li>is XMLBeans definitely the fastest stack we can use? XStream is pretty fast though its java centric rather than XSD centric (but maybe thats a good thing <img align="middle" class="emoticon" src="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/images/icons/emoticons/smile.gif" height="20" width="20" alt="" border="0"></li></ul>
