JAVA WEB SERVICES eBook Download

In the Java language, writing Web services requires an understanding of half a dozen specialized APIs at minimum, and more than that if you want to do fancier stuff. Java Web Services does a very good job of dispersing the confusing terminology (and obfuscating hype) and of showing you exactly how to do Web services work in Java. You won't find a lot of frills or conceptual explanations (though there are enough "why" sections to ensure that you're not just typing recipes blindly); the emphasis is on writing Java code that interacts with Web services protocols and standards. --David Wall

Topics covered: How to write Web services software in Java, with respect to Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI), Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), and Web Services Description Language (WSDL).

Don't bother with it.


Nothing Special
I wish I could recommend a better introduction to Java Web Services. However, this book is solidly average, nothing necessary wrong with that, and if you can find it at a good discount it's a decent buy.


Makes it understandable...
This book covers the topic of web services, primarily from a Java perspective. The chapters are as follows: Welcome To Web Services, Inside The Composite Computing Model, SOAP: The Cornerstone Of Interoperability, SOAP-RPC, SOAP-Faults, and Misunderstandings, Web Services Description Language, UDDI: Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration, JAX-RPC and JAXM, J2EE and Web Services, Web Services Interoperability, and Web Services Security.

Review
If you read the chapter headings and say "What does THAT mean?", then you probably have a reasonability good idea as to whether this book is for you. While it covers all the different technologies that make up web services, it does it at a pretty high level of detail with a lot of code samples in Java.

The good thing here is that many of the examples are given using the Apache Tomcat server as the mechanism for processing the request. But since web services usually involve SOAP XML statements sent to a server, there's no reason you couldn't program a web service in Domino as a web agent that runs when a user submits a web page or runs a URL that activates a server agent. For a current book on Web Services check out either the Wiley book (Developing Java Web Services) or my favorite Java Web Services Architecture.
