Installing Axis client

Some brief notes from Atif on installing Axis client.

The following software was used when installing Axis client.
* Java SE 1.5
* Axis 1.3

1. unzip axis-bin-1_3.tar to directory C:\DevTool\axis-1_3

2. Set variable AXIS_HOME to C:\DevTool\axis-1_3

3. Add an XML parser, acquire the JAXP 1.1 XML compliant parser (i.e. xalan) to $AXIS_HOME\lib

4. set variable AXIS_LIB to %AXIS_HOME%\lib

5. set variable AXISCLASSPATH to:

%AXIS_LIB%\axis.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\commons-discovery-0.2.jar;
%AXIS_LIB%\commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\jaxrpc.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\saaj.jar;
%AXIS_LIB%\log4j-1.2.8.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\xalan.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\wsdl4j-1.5.1.jar;
%AXIS_LIB%\axis-schema.jar

To use Axis client code on the command line, you can select AXISCLASSPATH when invoking Java by entering

java -cp %AXISCLASSPATH% ...

or

java -cp "$AXISCLASSPATH" ...

depending on the platform. You may omit the quotes if your CLASSPATH doesn't have spaces in it.
