This product provides proprietary system programming interfaces for more advanced Web Services Addressing (WS-Addressing) tasks, which involve the WS-Addressing message-addressing properties that are passed in the SOAP header of a Web service message. You can also use the SPIs to choose a WS-Addressing specification level other than the default used by the product.
You cannot use the standard JAX-WS 2.1 API classes with these proprietary SPIs. However, you can convert endpoint references created using the standard JAX-WS 2.1 API classes to instances of the com.ibm.websphere.wsaddressing.EndpointReference class, by using the com.ibm.websphere.wsaddressing.jaxws21.EndpointReferenceConverter class. You can then use these converted endpoint references with the SPIs.
The steps described in this task apply to servers and clients that run on WebSphere® Application Server.
Complete this task to specify or acquire WS-Addressing message-addressing properties, or if you have an application that needs to interoperate with a client or endpoint that is not using the default WS-Addressing specification supported by this product.
