Web Services
Note: See the bottom of this page to download the sample code used.
Rampart is the Apache Axis2 module that implements the WS-Security features. To add such features to your Web service, Axis2 provides two different configuration mechanisms. One depends on WS-SecurityPolicy and is the approach that is preferred. The other approach is known as the “parameter based configuration”.
Many XML validators exist. Here's how you may implement an XML validator in Java. At times you may need to take a programmatic approach like this.
Environment: JDK 1.6, JBoss 5.1, Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo)

Here's how you go about enabling clustering support:
