Apache Axis2/C

  What is it?
  -----------

  The Apache Axis2/C is a SOAP engine implementation that can be used 
  to provide and consume Web Services. Axis2/C is an effort to implement Axis2 
  architecture, in C. Please have a look at 
  http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/Axis2ArchitectureGuide.html
  for an overview on Axis2 architecture.
  
  Axis2/C supports both SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2. The soap processing model is
  built on the AXIOM XML object model. Axis2/C is capable of handling 
  one-way messaging (In-Only) as well as request response messaging (In-Out).
  It can be used in both synchronous and asynchronous modes.

  Axis2/C has built in WS-Addressing support. It implements WS-Addressing 1.0
  specification completely. It also has built in MTOM/XOP support for handling
  binary attachments.
  
  As a project of the Apache Software Foundation, the
  developers aim to collaboratively develop and maintain a robust,
  commercial-grade, standards-based Web Services stack implementation with 
  freely available source code.
