Using Apache SOAP Web services in Version 5.0 and 5.0.1
This topic and the topics linking to it describe how to use Apache SOAP 2.3 support for WAS V5.0 and 5.01. This support will be deprecated in a future release. If you are planning a new Web services project, it is recommended that you use Web services for J2EE.
Version 5.02 introduces support for Web services for J2EE, which replaces the "IBM WebSphere Web Services for J2EE Technology Preview" available as a separate download from http://www7b.boulder.ibm.com/wsdd/downloads/techpreviews.html. This supports emerging Java Web services standards like JAX-RPC and Web services for J2EE. It is recommended that new development efforts use the and follow these standards.
