Producer components

Acting as a producer of Web services, the ASE Web Services Engine uses three components: an HTTP handler, a SOAP handler, and an XML mapper.

Figure 2-2: ASE Web Services Engine as producer

The ASE Web Services Engine consists of three producer components: the HTTP Handler, the SOAP Handler, and the XML Mapper. SOAP communication to and from the ASE Web Services Engine is parsed by the HTTP Handler component. The HTTP Handler communicates with the SOAP Handler, which communicates with the XML Mapper. JDBC communication to and from the ASE Web Services Engine is handled by the XML Mapper.
