What's the minimum classpath for an Axis2 client?

Question

I want to build an Axis2 client (I\'m only accessing a remote web service, I\'m not implementing one!) with Maven2 and I don\'t want to add 21MB of JARs to my project.

Answer 1

In Axis2 version 1.5.1 the maven modules appear to have been restructured.

My Groovy scripts (Using ADB binding) have the following dependencies:

@Grapes([
    @Grab(group='org.apache.axis2', module='axis2-kernel', version='1.5.1'),
    @Grab(group='org.apache.axis2', module='axis2-adb', version='1.5.1'),
    @Grab(group='org.apache.axis2', module='axis2-transport-local', version='1.5.1'),
    @Grab(group='org.apache.axis2', module='axis2-transport-http', version='1.5.1'),
])

There's a logic to these. I could use an alternative binding framework when generating my stub or could use an alternative transport protocol to HTTP.
