"Developing rigorous and responsive web service client applications has always been a challenge for architects and developers working with SOA. JAX-WS 2.0 comes with one effective solution to this problem: asynchronous web service invocation. In this article, we will provide an exposition of this technology with examples built upon the reference implementation. The JAX-WS programming model offers two models for invoking operations asynchronously - polling and callback. Both methods allow the client to continue processing while waiting for a response."

" Given that web service invocations are always remote across the internet, developing rigorous and responsive web service client applications has always been a challenge for architects and developers working with SOA. JAX-WS 2.0 comes with one effective solution to this problem: asynchronous web service invocation, with which a web service client may interact with a web service in a non-blocking, asynchronous approach. In this article, we will provide an exposition of this technology with examples built upon the reference implementation. Our examples utilize JDK 5.0, JAX-WS 2.0 reference implementation (RI), and Tomcat 5.5. JAX-WS 2.0 requires JAXP 1.3. To replace the JAXP 1.2 released with JDK 5.0 with this newer version, one approach is to download the JAXP 1.3 RI, and copy the endorsed directory under /lib of its installation home to %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib. We need to copy the jaxp-api.jar of JAXP 1.3 RI to %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/endorsed as well. To make Tomcat 5.5 work with JAX-WS 2.0, readers need to copy all the .jar files under the /lib directory of the JAX-WS 2.0 RI installation to the %CATALINA_HOME%/shared/lib directory. As of this writing (in addition to Tomcat 5.5), Sun Java System Application Server 9.0, GlassFish, and Celtix also support JAX-WS 2.0. xFire is in the process of completing its implementation of this specification. Since asynchronous web service invocation in JAX-WS 2.0 is built upon the concurrent programming support in JDK 5.0 introduced with the java.util.concurrent package, we will start from there."
