- Description:
On the call this week we briefly touched upon what our representative set of databinding tools would be that we tested against to formally prove the design patterns that would be included in the Basic Patterns document. This does not need to be a exhaustive list but for our own confidence it ought to cover many of the most popular tools across several languages (its not just just .net and java out there....) For discussion then, this is what I would choose currently to fit our own core tools and those of our customers. Apache Axis 1.3 Final Apache Axis2 (latest 0.95?) BEA WLS 8.1 (clientgen and servicegen) BEA WLS 9.0 (clientgen and servicegen) IBM WAS 5.1 IBM WAS 6.0 JAXB 2.0 JAXB 1.1 XMLBeans 2.1 Microsoft .Net 2.0 Microsoft .Net 1.1 Axis CPP 1.6 gSoap 2.7 Rogue Wave Leif 2.5 SOAP:Lite Oracle PL/SQL XML utilities (up for discussion but we have users of this) The rationale for the selection could well be the largest commercial and open source tools for a language/platform. The multiple versions of these tools in the list reflect the current user base as well as the latest offerings in many cases. I think the list above needs to be reviewed and possibly balanced with more scripting language tools. The testing of our basic patterns with these tools justifies/validates the selection we make and in the border cases provides evidence as to why certain xml schema constructs may not be present in the basic patterns doc. WI reliase that all of this may be contentious but what thoughts do others have for a wish list of tools? Regards, JonC

2006-08-01: Closed at August 2006 f2f. Pragmatic decision to use what tools are available to us and what tools are important to the members of the working group.
