Using custom errors in Axis2/C

In this blog entry [link], I demonstrated usage of the Axis2/C custom errors using modified echo server sample. With presented code segments , I think I made my self clear to the reader about the topic. In recent past , saw users asking about custom errors in the axis-c-dev mailing list in several times. Therefore I think this post will find them helpful. If you see any point to improve please drop me a comment.

Axis2/C, default HTTP transport should be libcurl based

Here [link] I discussed why I think , we should move for libcurl as our default HTTP transport implementation in Axis2/C. It is due to many plus point of successful and complete HTTP implementation of libcurl library. Please feel free to share your thoughts with us.

WSF/C user and developer resources

Here I posted about some resources for Axis2/C and WSF/C, developers and users. Any one can use those resource to get best use from WSF/C. In that post , I mainly focused on Axis2/C , and any one who interested in other components of WSF/C have some important information there too.

Axis2/C 0.94 Released !!!

Axis2/c 0.94 Release is a quite important release for me. This is
first release I worked as Release Manager. Though Samisa told me
what I have to do exactly. I happened to manage things with a
inexperience crew (I myself also a member of that crew:)).
Unfortunately We got our Axis2/c leading developers very busy
those days with PRESTO Conference and Interoperability Meetings.

Last Week we spent very tiresome , late hours together to get 0.94
release out. Though I should not thank people who worked with me
(because this is our duty) I should mention there name at least to
be grateful to them.

Sanjaya the builder, He is the one who took care and tested the
build system for Axis2/c. He put a great effort to give every
option that we asked.

Dumindu, Manjula and Buddhika did the testing for 0.94. And found
number of bugs. Actually we happened to delay the release because
of the bugs they caught at last moment. Dumindu send some useful
patches to INSTALL file and installation guide.

We kept our last few tests rounds very tough. We tests every bits
and pieces that we can. Just to make sure stability of 0.94.

We released Axis2/c 0.94 by 3rd October 2006.

Just After release one of our Java mate Eran Chinthaka. Tried out
it he was impressed about our documentation and mention about some
minor bugs in the documentation.

We are pleased to announce the release of Apache Axis2/C version 0.94.
