Annotation Type Action


@Documented
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface Action

The Action annotation allows explicit association of a WS-Addressing Action message addressing property with input, output, and fault messages of the mapped WSDL operation.

In this version of JAX-WS there is no standard way to specify Action values in a WSDL and there is no standard default value. It is intended that, after the W3C WG on WS-Addressing has defined these items in a recommendation, a future version of JAX-WS will require the new standards.

Since:
JAX-WS 2.1
