ArcGIS Java web services API

ArcGIS Java web services (AgsJWS) API leverages the SOAP protocol to communicate with ArcGIS Server services via XML as it's messaging format and HTTP as its messaging transmission. The API is well suited for Java Enterprise (Java EE) application development in distributed computing environments. The API provides pure Java objects as value objects in the local JVM which makes them easier to develop with and debug. The API leverages all the benefits of SOAP based web services, including language/platform agnostic, built in error handling and designed for distributed computing environments.
