About the Book
"Java Web Services Unleashed"
explores everything Java developers need for Web service development. Starting
with the business considerations and roles of service-related technologies
within the Java architecture, the authors then demonstrate applications
using the "pillars" of Web service creation: SOAP, UDDI, and WSDL. Next,
the book introduces the JAX* pack - a set of Java APIs for XML programming
that ease and enhance service development - using real-world examples explaining
the importance of each JAX* API. Later chapters include a series of larger
case studies of service development using many Java technologies including
JSP and EJB.
