Name : axis
Product : Fedora 27
Version : 1.4
Release : 35.fc27
URL : http://ws.apache.org/axis/
Summary : SOAP implementation in Java
Description :
Apache AXIS is an implementation of the SOAP ("Simple Object Access Protocol")
submission to W3C.
From the draft W3C specification:
SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchange of information in a decentralized,
distributed environment. It is an XML based protocol that consists of three
parts: an envelope that defines a framework for describing what is in a message
and how to process it, a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of
application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing remote
procedure calls and responses.
This project is a follow-on to the Apache SOAP project.
