[Springframework-developer] Spring Web Services 1.0 RC1 Released

[Arjen P. <apo...@in...>]

Dear Spring community,

I'm pleased to announce that Spring Web Services 1.0 RC1 has been  
released!

This is the first release candidate of Spring-WS: a product of the  
Spring community focused on creating document-driven Web services.  
New in this release is:

* Documentation: we now have over 60 pages of documentation,  
including chapters for both client- and server-side.

* A new, annotation-based endpoint programming model. This model  
reduces the amount of XML configuration necessary, and allows you to  
inject the evaluation of an XPath evaludation in your endpoint.

* MTOM attachment support. This includes marshalling support for  
JAXB2, so that you can marshal byte[] and DataHandlers to an external  
attachment.

* And about 30 other bug fixes.

The next release is planned before the end of June, which can be  
either a second release candidate; or the 1.0 release!

Cheers,

Arjen
