The Apache SOAP team have released version 2.1 of their Java-based SOAP engine, adding many new features.
The team report that, although some work on documentation still needs to be done, the code is "solid" and that users of version 2.0 should consider upgrading.
Among the new features are:
- Addition of support for SSL, client-side HTTPS, and HTTP basic
authentication
-
Support for SOAP messages with attachments
- Pluggable configuration manager, provider support
- Support for international character sets
Apache SOAP can be downloaded from the Apache XML Project web site.
