New Web Services client adapter features
In Apama 5.0, the Web Services client adapter has been enhanced as follows:

You can add multiple Web Services Client adapter instances to an Apama project. Apama Studio generates service monitors and configuration files that are specific to each adapter instance.

The Web Services client adapter supports using multiple threads for sending input messages. In some situations an application may experience throughput performance gains when using multiple threads.

Many limitations on convention-based mapping have been removed. For example

Element names containing hyphens and dots can be represented using 
$002d and 
$002e, respectively.

Mapping both text and attribute/child node data from the same XML node is supported.

Mapping attribute values to EPL 
integer, 
float, and 
boolean fields is supported.
