11 December 2006 - Apache Rampart 1.1 Released
Apache Rampart team is happy to announce the 1.1 release of Apache Rampart
You can download the releases from:
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/ws/rampart/1_1
Apache Rampart 1.1 is a toolkit that provides implementations of the WS-Sec* specifications for Apache Axis2 1.1, based on Apache WSS4J 1.5.1 and the Apache AXIOM-DOOM 1.2.1 implementation.
What is in this release
There are two main Apache Axis2 modules provided with this release.
- rampart-1.1.mar -- This provides support for WS-Security and WS-SecureConversation features.
- rahas-1.1.mar -- This module provides the necessary components to enableSecurityTokenService functionality on a service.
Apache Rampart 1.1 introduces a new configuration model based on WS-Policy and WS-Security Policy and it is important to note that Apache Rampart 1.0 style configuration is now deprecated and will not be available in next major version.
Apache Rampart 1.1 can be successfully used with the next Apache Sandesha2 release targeted towards Apache Axis2 1.1 to configure WS-SecureConversation + WS-ReliableMessaging scenarios.
The rampart module was successfully tested for interoperability with other WS-Security implementations.
WS - Sec* specifications supported by Apache Rampart are as follows:
- WS - Security 1.0
- WS - Secure Conversation - February 2005
- WS - Security Policy - 1.1 - July 2005
- WS - Trust - February 2005
- WS - Trust - WS-SX spec - EXPERIMENTAL
Thank you for using Apache Rampart.
