The difference between xfire and JAX-WS glassfish is an open source implementation of Java ee 5 which includes JAX-WS

To Alexander Ananiev:

Yes, the jaxws 2.0 ri you tried was ea3 and since then it has came along quite a long way.

Since then jaxws 2.0 final was released in June and jaxws 2.1 is under active development.

When I look at the WS stack comparison: http://xfire.codehaus.org/Stack+Comparison jaxws 2.1 brings in most of these features and more.

Jaxws 2.1-an open source project at http://jax-ws.dev.java.net is too Ted for high performance, pluggability and extension. various WS-* features, such as WS-Security, WS-reliablemessaging, WS-Policy, WS-MEX, WS-trust, WS-secureconversation, WS-TX (with GF V2 ), soap/tcp etc. these plugins are developed at wsit-a sub-project of jaxws at: http://wsit.dev.java.net and is available from jaxws download page:

The other key features are:
-Plugins thru pipe and Message Queue action
-Pluggable transport
-Soap 1.1 and soap 1.2
-WS-Addressing
-Streaming MTOM
-Swaref and mime
-Uses jaxb 2.1 for all the databinding purposes
-Stateful Web Services
-Asynchronous client and server (under development)
-Support for standards such as: jaxws 2.0, jaxws 2.1, WS-I basic profile 1.1, ssbp 1.0, AP 1.0 etc.

Its worth mentioning that the entire jaxws stack and WS-* features are regularly tested for interoperability with. Net 3.0.

You may like to try jaxws 2.1 From http://jax-ws.dev.java.net to see for yourself.

Thanks,

-Vivek.
