WSDL first to SLSB

[pure]

I develop webservices using the WSDL first technique. I use wscompile to generate the java classes needed. Is it possible to use the generated classes and deploy everything as a SLSB instead of a servlet.

As i understand servlets are not pooled and it would be nice to get the pooling out of SLSB's instead.

I use Jboss 4.0.3SP1.

Best regards

Have a look at:

I am not interested at exposing and ejb as a webservice. I want to create an ejb from a WSDL file. As i understand it the wscompile tool can olny generate servlets and servlets are not pooled in jboss.

I did not find an answer to that problem on the wiki page.

Create a SLSB that implements the methods defined in you SI that is generated by wscompile.

Package your ejb.

The standard deployment descriptor for EJB components ejb-jar.xml, declares the service endpoint.

<ejb-jar xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/ejb-jar_2_1.xsd"
 version="2.1">
 <enterprise-beans>
 <session>
 <ejb-name>OrganizationBean</ejb-name>
 <service-endpoint>com.underworld.crimeportal.OrganizationEndpoint</service-endpoint>
 <ejb-class>com.underworld.crimeportal.ejb.OrganizationSLSB</ejb-class>
 <session-type>Stateless</session-type>
 <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
 </session>
 </enterprise-beans>
 </ejb-jar>

Additionally, we need the J2EE Web Service deployment descriptor, webservices.xml

<webservices xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
 xmlns:impl="http://com.underworld.crimeportal/ws4ee"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://www.ibm.com/webservices/xsd/j2ee_web_services_1_1.xsd"
 version="1.1">

 <webservice-description>
 <webservice-description-name>OrganizationServiceEJB</webservice-description-name>
 <wsdl-file>META-INF/wsdl/OrganizationServiceEJB.wsdl</wsdl-file>
 <jaxrpc-mapping-file>META-INF/OrganizationServiceEJB_Mapping.xml</jaxrpc-mapping-file>
 <port-component>
 <port-component-name>Organization</port-component-name>
 <wsdl-port>OrganizationEndpointPort</wsdl-port>
 <service-endpoint-interface>com.underworld.crimeportal.OrganizationEndpoint</service-endpoint-interface>
 <service-impl-bean>
 <ejb-link>OrganizationSLSB</ejb-link>
 </service-impl-bean>
 </port-component>
 </webservice-description>
 </webservices>

You need to add your mapping file and wsdl to the archive as well...then you should be ready to deploy it.

I hope this helps you...

Thank you for the help. Will test this soon

jbossws-1.0.0.GA is out. Try wstools to generate JSR-109 client artifacts from wsdl. Then create a SLSB that implements the generated SEI.
