As mentioned in The Aquarium few weeks ago, Fast Infoset support is now available in wsmonitor. Thanks to Joe Wang for all the work.

Given below is the CVS diff of JAX-WS fromjava sample that shows how to run the sample using wsmonitor and also how Fast Infoset support can be enabled.

This sample is available in JAX-WS 2.0.1 binary or can be checked out along with the JAX-WS sources project.

After making the above mentioned changes in the files, download, install and run wsmonitor v1.1. Re-build the sample client (ant client) and run it with the following additional properties:

ant run -Dwsmonitor=true

This command will run the client and wsmonitor console will show the HTTP headers and SOAP request and response messages.

ant run -Dfi=[optimistic | pessimistic | none ]

This command will run the client based upon the Fast Infoset content negotiation defined by the property values. The wsmonitor console will show the HTTP headers and SOAP request and response messages. Fast Infoset messages are identified by the request and response encoding shown in the table at the top and also by the application/fastinfoset value of Accept-Type HTTP header for the request message and Content-Type HTTP header for the response message. The SOAP message, in this case, is displayed as a binary dump using hexadecimal representation.

The various console dumps showing HTTP headers and request/response messages using SOAP and Fast Infoset is available here.
