This feature represents the use of WS-Addressing with either
the SOAP 1.1/HTTP or SOAP 1.2/HTTP binding. Using this feature
with any other binding is NOT required.
The following describes the effects of this feature with respect
to be enabled or disabled:
- ENABLED: In this Mode, WS-Addressing will be enabled.
At runtime, WS-Addressing headers
MUST be consumed by the receiver and produced by the
sender even if the WSDL declares otherwise. The
mustUnderstand="0" attribute MUST be used on the response WS-Addressing
headers.
- DISABLED: In this Mode, WS-Addressing will be disabled
even if an associated WSDL specifies otherwise. At runtime,
WS-Addressing headers MUST NOT be used. WS-Addressing may be explicitly
disabled to prevent a JAX-WS implementation from consuming and producing
WS-Addressing headers. If an application
has implemented WS-Addressing itself, it MUST explicitly disable this feature.
Not doing so may break compatibility with future versions of JAX-WS.
The required property can be used to
specify if WS-Addressing headers MUST
be present on incoming messages. By default the
required property is false .
The definition of this annotation is incomplete in this release of JAX-WS as
there is no standard way to convey the use of WS-Addressing via a WSDL and there is no
standard definition for the default value of WS-Addressing Action headers;
however, the runtime behavior of this annotation is well-defined.
It is intended that a future version of
JAX-WS will require the use of the standard mechanism to convey the use
of WS-Addressing via WSDL and default values for WS-Addressing Action headers
as defined by the W3C WG on WS-Addressing.
To write a portable endpoint and its corresponding client with this version of JAX-WS,
an endpoint MUST explicitly specify what WS-Addressing Actions are to be used
via the
Action and
FaultAction annotations. The client MUST explicitly
enable addresssing via the
AddressingFeature , and for each invocation, the client
MUST explicitly set the
BindingProvider.SOAPACTION_URI_PROPERTY .
After the W3C WG on WS-Addressing has specified how the use of WS-Addressing is specified in the WSDL,
and what the default value must be for Action headers, a future version of JAX-WS will remove these requirements.
