The Holy War between Microsoft Corporation and Sun Microsystems is heating up as Sun unveils JAX Pack to compete with Microsoft's .NET initiative JAX Pack is an all-in-one development kit that utilizes XML to build cross platform Web services. For companies that are developing Web services to collaborate with business partners, JAX Pack offers a faster way to develop applications while maintaining independence from any particular vendor's XML technologies. Developing Web Services with Java APIs for XML (JAX Pack) provides exhaustive coverage of Sun's recently released JAX Pack. The book assumes that readers are experienced Java developers with a solid understanding of XML. As such, the book contains five parts covering each component of JAX Pack. JAX Pack is a major product release for the most popular Web development environment First book out covering all five components of JAX Pack (JAXP, JAXR, JAXM, JAXB, and JAX-RPC) Unrivalled Web-based support with [email protected]; up-to-the minute links, white papers and analysis for one year

What is this book about? If you're a Java programmer working with XML, you probablyalready use some of the tools developed by the Apache SoftwareFoundation. This book is a code-intensive guide to the Apache XMLtools that are most relevant for Java developers, including Xerces,Xalan, FOP, Cocoon, Axis, and Xindice. Theodore Leung, a founding member of the Apache XML Project,focuses on the unique capabilities of these best-of-breed XMLtools. With the help of a sample application, he demonstrates howyou can use them in unison to develop professional XML/Javaapplications for the real world. If you need in-depth information to help you assemble a workabletoolbox for developing sophisticated XML-based applications, you'llfind it in this volume. What does this book cover? In this book, you will find out about the following: How the Apache XML Project relates to Java programming When you'll need some of Xerces' extra parsing features, likegrammar caching How to use Xalan's XSLTC to compile XSLT stylesheets intoJava Prerequisites and applications for FOP and Batik Cocoon concepts and development Development techniques and practical usage for Xindice How to develop back-end applications with XML RPC and Axis Applications and concepts for XML Security Who is this book for? This book is written for professional Java developers who havehad some exposure to XML and XSLT. To get the most from it, youshould be familiar with Java, Java Web development technologies(e.g., servlets), and the command line Java tools.
