technical details on soapui?

Is there somewhere that I can get technical details on soapui's implementation?  In particular, I am interested if soapui is built on top of one of the existing popular web service stacks (metro, axis).

    Hi!

    soapUI doesn't use any WS-Stack, it does all message creation, etc itself.. but it does use a bunch of great open source libraries, for example:

    - xmlbeans - for parsing schemas, generating/validating messages, etc
    - wsdl4j - for parsing wsdls
    - httpclient - for sending http requests
    - jetty - for mocking and monitor functionality
    - wss4j - for ws-security support
    - etc..

    Does this suffice? Were you interested in some specific functionality?

    regards!
