| <h1>Apache Axis2/Java Version 1.1 Documentation Index</h1> | |
| <h2>Introduction</h2> | |
| <p>Apache Axis2, the third generation Web services engine is more efficient, | |
| more modular and more XML-oriented than its predecessor <a | |
| href="http://ws.apache.org/axis/">Apache Axis</a>. It is carefully designed | |
| to support the easy addition of plug-in "modules" that extend its | |
| functionality for features such as security and reliability.</p> | |
| <p>Apache Axis2 Version 1.1 comes to you with better Axis2 Databinding | |
| Framework (ADB) support, <a | |
| href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP-attachments">attachments API</a>, Spring and | |
| complete support for SOAP with Attachments (SwA).</p> | |
| <p>This page will take you through the list of documents we have in store for | |
| you.</p> | |
| <h2>Apache Axis2 User's Guide</h2> | |
| <p>You can get started with Axis2 with the assistance of the following | |
| documents. They will guide you through Axis2 download, installation both as a | |
| standalone Web services engine and as part of a J2EE compliant servlet | |
| container, not forgetting the instructions on how to write Web services and | |
