| Apache Axis2/C | |
| What is it? | |
| ----------- | |
| The Apache Axis2/C is a SOAP engine implementation that can be used | |
| to provide and consume Web Services. Axis2/C is an effort to implement Axis2 | |
| architecture, in C. Please have a look at | |
| http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/Axis2ArchitectureGuide.html | |
| for an overview on Axis2 architecture. | |
| Axis2/C supports both SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2. The soap processing model is | |
| built on the AXIOM XML object model. Axis2/C is capable of handling | |
| one-way messaging (In-Only) as well as request response messaging (In-Out). | |
| It can be used in both synchronous and asynchronous modes. | |
| Axis2/C has built in WS-Addressing support. It implements WS-Addressing 1.0 | |
| specification completely. It also has built in MTOM/XOP support for handling | |
| binary attachments. | |
| As a project of the Apache Software Foundation, the | |
| developers aim to collaboratively develop and maintain a robust, | |
| commercial-grade, standards-based Web Services stack implementation with | |
| freely available source code. | |
