Minimum JDK & JRE to be used with JAX-WS 2.2.x

I am using JAX-WS wsimport to generate stubs to call Web Services. I need JAX-WS 2.2 or above - which is default only with JDK/JRE 7. What is the minimum JRE/JDK JAX-WS 2.2 can be used against? Can it be used with JRE5. Can it it be used with JRE6. The JAX-WS documentation describes how to use JAX-WS 2.2.x with JDK 6 - https://jax-ws.java.net/2.2.7/docs/ch02.html#running-on-top-of-jdk-6

However, this documentation seems to be for web services on the server side. I couldn't find anything clear in the documentation about whether it can be used for client stubs with JRE 6 (i.e. generation client stubs with JAX-WS 2.2.x & then running them against JRE 6).

Is this fully supported? Any caveats?

Using the Java Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism is the way to go for both client and server.

This mechanism also applies to Java 5 but I don't expect there was much testing of JAX-WS 2.2 on it.
