Chapter 11. Working with JAX-RPC
The JAX-RPC specification defines the following packages:
javax.xml.rpc
javax.xml.rpc.encoding
javax.xml.rpc.handler
javax.xml.rpc.handler.soap
javax.xml.rpc.holders
javax.xml.rpc.server
javax.xml.rpc.soap
Of all these packages, the one that you need to be concerned about as an application developer is the javax.xml.rpc package. It contains the interfaces that you will be using while developing the clients that use JAX-RPC mechanisms to perform remote procedure calls.
The classes of the other packages are used by the JAX-RPC runtime, or by xrpcc to generate stubs, ties, and the WSDL document.
