Provides classes and interfaces which represent special data types.
These data types are handled in a special way when relayed over SOAP.
Classes and interfaces in this package could be divided into the following
categories:
- Holders
- For passing in/out and out parameters,
Systinet Server uses Holder classes. Because parameters in SOAP calls
are passed by copy, we need a container that holds the reference
to in and in-out parameters. This container is called Holder.
- Attachments
- Attachments are used to relay application-specific binary data over SOAP.
- Asynchronous call abstractions
- Web service invocation may be either synchronous or asynchronous.
Two interfaces were introduced to support asynchronous invocation.
