SOAP
W"a! is SOAP ?
SOAP, originally defined as Simple Object Access Protocol, is a protocol specification for
exchanging structured information in the implementation of Web Services in computer networks.
It relies on xtensible !arkup "anguage #$!"% for its message format, and usually relies on
other Application "ayer protocols, most notably &ypertext 'ransfer (rotocol #&''(% and Simple
!ail 'ransfer (rotocol #S!'(%, for message negotiation and transmission.

-.,#ain abo&! Re%o!e ca## ,roced&re?
Re%o!e ca## ,roced&re is considered as a ver) i%,or!an! &nc!ion in SOAP$ In
RCP a &ser /node0 sends a reA&es! !o ano!"er node /server0 w"ere !"e
inor%a!ion is ,rocesses and sent to the user. It immediately sends message across
the network.
An )(* is initiated by the client, which sends a re+uest message to a known remote server to
execute a specified procedure with supplied parameters. 'he remote server sends a response to
the client, and the application continues its process. While the server is processing the call, the
client is blocked #it waits until the server has finished processing before resuming execution%,
unless the client sends an asynchronous re+uest to the server, such as an $&''( call. 'here are
many variations and subtleties in various implementations, resulting in a variety of different
#incompatible% )(* protocols.

W"a! are !"e s!e,s !o Use JAXB?
The general steps to use the JAXB API are:
1. Bind the schema:
It requires two steps:
o enerate classes
o !ompile classes

". #nmarshal
It includes the $ollowing steps:
o enerate content tree
o %alidate &optional'
o Process the content

(. )arshal
JAXP is Ja*a API $or X)+ Processing, which pro*ides a plat$orm $or us to Parse the X)+ -iles
with the ./) /r 0AX Parsers.
1here as JAXB is Ja*a Architecture $or X)+ Binding, it will make it easier to access X)+
documents $rom applications written in the Ja*a programming language.
-or 23ample : !omputer.3ml -ile, i$ we can want to access the data with JAXP, we will 4e
per$orming the $ollowing steps 1' !reate a 0AX Parser or ./) Parser and then PArse the data,
i$ we use ./), it may 4e memory intensi*e i$ the document is too 4ig. 0uppose i$ we use 0AX
parser, we need to identi$y the 4eginning o$ the document. 1hen it encounters something
signi$icant &in 0AX terms, an 5e*ent5' such as the start o$ an X)+ tag, or the te3t inside o$ a tag,
it makes that data a*aila4le to the calling application.
Then !reate a content handler that de$ines the methods to 4e noti$ied 4y the parser when it
encounters an e*ent. These methods, known as call4ack methods, take the appropriate action
on the data they recei*e.
The Same Operations if it is performed by JAXB, the following steps needs to be
performed to access the Computer.ml
1. Bind the schema $or the X)+ document.
". #nmarshal the document into Ja*a content o46ects. The Ja*a content o46ects represent
the content and organi7ation o$ the X)+ document, and are directly a*aila4le to your
program. A$ter unmarshalling, your program can access and display the data in the X)+
document simply 4y accessing the data in the Ja*a content o46ects and then displaying it.
There is no need to create and use a parser and no need to write a content handler with
call4ack methods. 1hat this means is that de*elopers can access and process X)+ data
without ha*ing to know X)+ or X)+ processing
