Is it possible to use JMS instead of HTTP with Web Services?

Hi everyone,

Is it really possible to use JMS instead of HTTP with Web Services? And if so I'm restricted to open-source technologies, so I'm developing with JBoss and AXIS, can it still be done?

The cenario I'm trying to implement is a complete communication using JMS as the tranport layer between the client and the web service and also between the web service and the server.

By the way, if anyone knows any good tutorials or examples for this cenario feel free to post the links in this question. I would appreciate it very much!!!

Thanks in advance!

JBOSS.NET is actually the Apache Axis engine and there is a JMS example in the Axis download (http://ws.apache.org/axis/releases.html). If you want a stable non alpha release, try 1.1rc2. After downloading, look in the \samples\jms directory. There is a AxisJMSSample.pdf file that describes what you are looking for. You may have to tweak it slightly to work within JBOSS. I am not that familiar with JBOSS JMS but I know the simple Axis webservices need to be tweaked slightly in order to run in JBOSS.
