Dear Spring community,

I'm pleased to announce that Spring Web Services 0.9 has been released. This is the first public preview release of the Spring-WS project. The overall major features of Spring-WS include:

  • Object/XML mapping support, adding a unified interface and exception hierarchy to:
    • Castor,
    • JAXB,
    • JiBX,
    • XmlBeans
  • Flexible message dispatching mechanism, resembling Spring-MVC's DispatcherServlet.
  • Various styles of endpoints, including endpoints based on DOM, SAX, StAX, and XML marshalling.
  • Exception to SOAP Fault mapping


The release can be found at the Spring Framework download site.

For the list of planned features, and currently known issues, refer to the Spring-WS JIRA instance (http://opensource2.atlassian.com/pro...ing/browse/SWS).

Cheers,

Arjen
