[Springframework-developer] Spring and axis

[Michael Y. <sp...@on...>]

I wonder if anyone has integrated axis into Spring Framework, or
if the gurus can shed some lights on this?

We are building a web application with some UI components, but most
of the interfaces are Web Services.  We are using Spring and Axis.
The problem is Axis needs its own servlet so that it knows which
web services classes to call when a web services request comes in.

So for the axis servlet (and my web services classes that get called
it), I can only get hold of the application wide application context
from Spring framework.  I can't seem to have an axis servlet specific
Spring application context.

It seems one should be able to use Spring to handle web services
requests as well.  Spring can just delegate the requests to some
controllers, and the controllers will invoke Axis?

Any thoughts?  Thanks!  /Michael.
