Spring Web Services 1.5.0 Final released

[Arjen Poutsma]

Dear Spring community,

I'm pleased to announce that Spring Web Services 1.5.0 has been released! This final release candidate the following new features over 1.0.3:

• Two new transports: JMS and email, both for client and server,
• WSS4J-based WS-Security implementation, which allows for WS-Security on non-SUN JDKs (i.e. WebSphere) and JDK 1.4,
• WS-Addressing support for both client and server, supporting the August 2004 and final versions of the specification,
• Native support for Java 6, including JAXP 1.4, and the bundled SAAJ 1.3 and JAXB 2.0,
• Two new Spring namespaces, which drastically decrease the amount of XML required to configure marshallers and typical Spring-WS constructs,
• Spring-WS jars are now OSGi bundles,
• A new, client-side interception mechanism, including WS-Security support,
• @Endpoints are now @Components, so they are automatically picked up when using Spring 2.5 component scanning
• A new and improved XSD-to-WSDL generator that inlines included and imported XSDs
• Support for Spring Security
• Support for the Java 6 HTTP Server
• Two new samples, showing Plain Old XML usage and WS-Addressing with the Java 6 HTTP server

and many small improvements and bug fixes. Check the changelog for more details.

We recommend upgrading to Spring Web Services 1.5 from all previous versions, in order to benefit from these new features!

The 1.5 series is 95% backwards compatible, though support for Java 1.3 has been dropped, in favor of Java 1.6. A week from now, we will release 1.0.4, backporting all bugfixes in the 1.5 branch.

For more information, see http://static.springframework.org/spring-ws/sites/1.5/.

Cheers,

Arjen

Thats great news!

When should the 1.5.0 release show up in s3browse
http://s3browse.com/explore/maven.sp.../ws/spring-ws/ or in the main maven repo http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/sp.../ws/spring-ws/ ?

[BigMac]

The files have been pushed to both locations.

Thanks!

Dear Spring community,

I'm pleased to announce that Spring Web Services 1.5.0 has been released! This final release candidate the following new features over 1.0.3:

I'm really impressed with this new release. We upgraded painlessly from the last release, and converted everything to use annotations really easily.

Thanks for all the hard work !

Hey,

It is mentioned that there are two new namespaces in the 1.5 release, but it doesn't seem like the samples are using any new namespaces. I am curious about these new namespaces and I wonder where I can get information about them?

The airline sample in 1.5 contains a few examples of the new namespaces, see e.g.
/airline/src/main/resources/org/springframework/ws/samples/airline/ws/applicationContext-ws.xml:

<oxm:jaxb2-marshaller id="marshaller" contextPath="org.springframework.ws.samples.airline.schema"/>

...

<sws:marshalling-endpoints/>

<sws:xpath-endpoints>
    <sws:namespace prefix="messages" uri="http://www.springframework.org/spring-ws/samples/airline/schemas/messages"/>
</sws:xpath-endpoints>

I can't find any documentation either though

Hi,

I run java 1.6.0_01 and maven 2.0.7.
The maven build for the sample goes without errors. But once I execute mvn exec:java I always get an error. The root cause is:

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/soap/SOAPException
        at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method)
        at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:2357)

        at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.instantiateBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.j
ava:845)

I tried adding saaj-api as a runtime dependency but than I get some errors bout jaxb.

Help

[jucosorin]

My mistake,

JAVA_HOME was set to java 1.5 and so maven was using java 1.5 instead of 6.
Now everything works.

Thanx

We use WSS4J 1.5.4, which is shipped with the -with-dependencies distribution.
