Jakarta XML RPC

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Jakarta XML RPC (JAX-RPC; formerly Java API for XML Based RPC) allows a

Java API for XML Web Services). JAX-RPC 1 is deprecated with Java EE 6.[1] The JAX-RPC service utilizes W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) standards like WSDL (Web Service Description Language).[2]
The core API classes are located in the Java package javax.xml.rpc.

  • Supports web-based services and clients using RPC or remote procedure calls which are based on XML.
  • Allow for web service accessibility through Java APIs which in turn allows for communication between different Java applications.
  • Enables client communication with web service of different language and running on separate platform.

It works as follows:

  1. A Java program executes a
    method on a stub
    (local object representing the remote service)
  2. The stub executes routines in the JAX-RPC Runtime System (RS)
  3. The RS converts the remote method invocation into a
    SOAP
    message
  4. The RS transmits the message as an HTTP request

The advantage of such a method is that it allows the Web service to be implemented at server-side as a Servlet or EJB container. Thus, Servlet or EJB applications are made available through Web services.

Jakarta XML RPC (JAX-RPC) was removed from Jakarta EE 9.[3]
