Microsoft hosted its second Windows Communication Foundation (also known as Indigo) Interop Plug-fest with Sun last week, and at least five Sun engineers attended the three-day event on Microsoft's Redmond, Wash., campus to test interoperability between Sun's Project Tango and WCF, said Arun Gupta, a Sun staff engineer, in a blog post. Other Sun staff participated remotely, he said.
Gupta, who attended the first WCF Plug-fest in November, said last week's was bigger and better.
"We tested interoperability of implementations of WS-Addressing, MTOM [Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism], Reliable Messaging, Schema and WSDL [Web Services Description Language], Web Services Security 1.0 and Metadata Exchange," said Gupta. "The source code of these implementations will be available in Glassfish and binaries in the Java Web Services Developer Pack in the future."
