SOAP Component for SwitchYard
=============================
A barebone implementation that provides the following features:

a) Allows SwitchYard services to be exposed as a WebService.
b) Allows SwitchYard services to invoke externally/internally hosted WebServices.
c) Uses pure JAX-WS Dispatch and Provider APIs.

Test

Includes these usecases:

1. Invoke a oneway WebService
2. Invoke a request-response WebService
3. Invoke the request-response WebService with improper data
