Errata
- Currently the JaxWsServiceFactoryBean requires you to explicitly set the BindingFactory to JaxWsSoapBindingInfoFactoryBean for the @SoapBinding annotation to work. Usage of the JAX-WS Endpoint should work regardless.
Whats not done yet?
There are many things we will be working on for the next version of CXF:
- WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Security
- Improved tooling to support WSDL 2.0
...
- Support for more databindings including XFire's Aegis databinding, JiBX, and XMLBeans
- Asynchronous HTTP support
- Performance optimizations - CXF is quite fast now, but we know of several performance improvements to be done for the next version.
- Improved Documentation
- See the CXF Roadmap for more information.
