| <h1>Apache Axis2 1.5.3 Release Notes</h1> |
| |
| <h2>About this version</h2> |
| |
| <p>1.5.3 is a maintenance release that contains the following improvements:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Improved support for SSL when using the servlet transport: Axis2 can now be configured |
| so that generated WSDLs contain https endpoints (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4465">AXIS2-4465</a>).</li> |
| <li>Improved compatibility with Rampart (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3213">AXIS2-3213</a> |
| and <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4870">AXIS2-4870</a>) and Sandesha2 (potential HTTP connection pool starvation).</li> |
| <li>Axiom has been upgraded to 1.2.10. This version contains performance improvements relevant for Rampart.</li> |
| <li>Application (business) faults are no longer logged at level ERROR (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4280">AXIS2-4280</a>).</li> |
| <li>Improved conformance to the SAAJ specifications. The 1.5.3 release contains a set of fixes and improvements for the SAAJ |
| implementation developed on the trunk and not included in previous releases from the 1.5 branch.</li> |
| <li>Axis2 now relies exclusively on dependencies available from the Maven central repository, and no other Maven |
| repositories are required. This in particular fixes a build problem that appeared after the 1.5.2 release.</li> |
| <li>The Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA plugins are again available for <a href="http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/tools/index.html">download</a> via the Axis2 Web site |
| (previous 1.5.x versions could only be downloaded from the Maven repository).</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h2>About Axis2</h2> |
| |
| <p>Apache Axis2 is a complete re-design and re-write of the widely used |
| Apache Axis engine and is a more efficient, more scalable, more modular |
| and more XML-oriented Web services framework. 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>Modules supporting WS-Security/Secure-Conversation (Apache Rampart), |
| WS-Trust (Apache Rahas), WS-Reliable Messaging (Apache Sandesha) and |
| WS-Eventing (Apache Savan) are available via the Apache Web Services |
| project. Please see the individual subproject sites for further information.</p> |
| |
| <h2>Feedback</h2> |
| |
| <p>We are striving for a simple and happy first time user experience as well as a |
| satisfying experienced user experience with this release. We welcome any |
| and all feedback at:</p> |
