C X F - Web Services

Apache CXF Project was created by the merger of the Celtix and XFire projects. These two projects were merged by folks working together at the Apache Software Foundation.

Apache CXF is a free and open source project, and a fully featured Webservice framework.
It helps you building webservices using different front-end API's, like as JAX-RS and JAX-WS.
Services will talk different protocols such as SOAP, RESTful HTTP, CORBA & XML/HTTP and work with different transports like JMS, HTTP or JBI.

    JDK 6
    Eclipse 3.7
    CXF-2.7.3
