The Web Services Addressing (WS-Addressing) support provides
mechanisms to address web services and provide addressing information
in messages. WS-Addressing support is disabled by default on clients.
The method for disabling WS-Addressing support on servers depends
on whether your application is based on JAX-RPC or JAX-WS.
About this task
You do not have to disable WS-Addressing support even if
your application does not require it, because in most cases WS-Addressing
support does not have a negative impact on the running of applications.
For JAX-RPC applications, disabling WS-Addressing support can be risky
as this action also disables support for other specifications such
as Web Services Atomic Transactions.
Procedure
Results
By completing this task, you disabled the WS-Addressing support.
Disabling WS-Addressing on clients prevents WebSphere® Application Server sending WS-Addressing
message addressing properties in the SOAP header of outbound web service
messages. Disabling WS-Addressing on servers additionally prevents WebSphere Application Server
processing WS-Addressing MAPs in incoming SOAP headers.
