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.
Enabling this feature on the client will cause the JAX-WS runtime
to include WS-Addressing headers in SOAP messages.
If the web service developer has not explicitly enabled this feature,
it MAY be automatically enabled if the associated WSDL enables
WS-Addressing with an implementation recognized WSDL extension element.
However, in this version of JAX-WS, there is no standard WSDL
extension that a client can rely on to automatically enable WS-Addressing,
nor is there a standard default value specified for WS-Addressing
Action headers.
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 this 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.
See
javax.xml.ws.RespectBindingFeature for more information
on required WSDL extensions.
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 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
AddressingFeature.required property can be used to
specify if WS-Addressing headers MUST be present
on incoming messages. This property only has meaning when used on the
endpoint and has no affect when used on the client.
By default the
required property is false .

and Web Services Addressing 1.0 - SOAP Binding
