Comment on SOAP Messages – RPC vs. Document vs. Literal vs. Encoded vs. Wrapped vs. Unwrapped by sandocean

Well not everything’s completely correct here:

“The rpc style is limited to very simple XSD types such as String and Integer”. Well that’s not a limitation of the rpc style. Using “encoded” allows you to specify the types of the XML directly. rpc just specifies that you use the operation name when invoking a web service.

“However, the rpc style’s SOAP messages are easier to look at and understand.”
I’d say that’s not true either. Encoded messages are harder to look at because of the type information. document/literal/wrapped and rpc literal style messages will probably look exactly the same. document/literal messages will even look simpler since you leave out the operation name.

Jax-WS RI (since Java 6 and above I think) uses document/literal/wrapped by default.

Comment on Implementing the Java Messager Service (JMS) Request/Reply Pattern and Other Newbie Practice Runs by Swamy

Hi,

Was looking for the request/reply pattern in JMS. Found your article useful

A small change had to be made for the above code to work – the connection had to be started before the consumer receives the message.

I had a set up in which the producer and consumer were separate components within the ear file.

Should be “seiketsu” not “seiketso”. Thanks.

Comment on Choosing Clojure Over Scala by Jeoff Wilks

Very timely post. I was just messing with Scala a few days ago; there are a few nice things about it, but it also brings with it a lot of baggage, in my opinion. I haven’t looked at Clojure yet, but hearing that it’s more like Scheme than Common Lisp has got my attention.

yeah, clojure is a lisp-1 but it has a macro system you usually find in lisp-2s (with improvements), and a more common lisp-like programming culture, and lacks call/cc. all of which make it, imo, something of a hybrid. i prefer it over all it’s cousins though.

Fogus is too modest to mention this, but the second Clojure book everyone should read is his (and Chris Houser’s) Joh of Clojure, still in pre-release.

Clojure is actually a Lisp (Lisp-1, like Scheme, unlike Common Lisp which is a Lisp-2). Though I guess nowadays Lisp is a convenient short-hand to mean Common Lisp.
