Description

Axis 1.4 internally uses java.net.URL to represent endpoint URLs. For non-HTTP endpoints this requires configuration of custom URLStreamHandlers (because otherwise the construction of java.net.URL objects would fail with an unknown protocol error). This is done by Call#addTransportPackage which modifies the java.protocol.handler.pkgs system property. However, modifying system properties in a shared environment is not a good thing.

Since we now require Java 1.4, we could use java.net.URI instead of java.net.URL to represent/process endpoint URLs and remove the need to modify the java.protocol.handler.pkgs system property.
