ClassNotFoundException: SAAJMetaFactoryImpl

[Mike Schmitt]

The class org.jboss.ws.core.soap.SAAJMetaFactoryImpl.class is declared in the file META-INF/services/javax.xml.soap.MetaFactory in jboss-saaj.jar.

Unfortunately I cannot find any jar file where org.jboss.ws.core.soap.SAAJMetaFactoryImpl.class is included.

Does anyone know which jar file or maven artifact includes this class?

Without it I get the following exception when starting a web application using JAX-WS on JBoss 4.3:
