Newbie question: Just a first webservice client

[nautilusiii]

Hi!

I have developed my very first webservice with JSR181:

/**
 * SimpleWebServiceImpl.java
 *
 * This file was auto-generated from WSDL
 * by the Apache Axis 1.3 Oct 05, 2005 (05:23:37 EDT) WSDL2Java emitter.
 */

package ws;

import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding;

@WebService
@SOAPBinding(style = SOAPBinding.Style.RPC)
public class SimpleWebService
{
 @WebMethod
 public int add(int a, int b)
 {
 return a+b;
 }

 @WebMethod
 public int sub(int a, int b)
 {
 return a-b;
 }

 @WebMethod
 public int mul(int a, int b)
 {
 return a*b;
 }

 @WebMethod
 public double div(int a, int b)
 {
 return a/b;
 }
}

The webservice is deployed and I can fetch the wsdl via specifying the appropriate URL in the browser.

http://localhost:8080/ws2/webservices/SimpleWebService?wsdl

But I cannot manage it to develop a simple standalone client...

I tried this here:

package ws;

import javax.xml.ws.WebServiceRef;

public class SimpleWebServiceClient
{
 @WebServiceRef(wsdlLocation = "http://localhost:8080/ws2/webservices/SimpleWebService?wsdl")
 static SimpleWebService service;

 public static void main(String[] args)
 {
 System.out.println(service.add(2,3));
 }
}

I doing all these from within Eclipse with Lomboz...
I referenced the project containg the service from within my client project and just executed the client from within Eclipse...

But I always get a NullPtrExc because the variable service is always null in

System.out.println(service.add(2,3));

What am I doing wrong?

Note, it is scheduled for jbossws-2.0

Have a look how the clients in the sample download do it.

Hi!

i have a similar problem with my webservice test client using the dynamic invocation interface (DII). When I try to run the client within Eclipse I get the following Exception

Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException: Provider com.sun.xml.rpc.client.ServiceFactoryImpl not found
at javax.xml.rpc.FactoryFinder.newInstance(FactoryFinder.java:44)
at javax.xml.rpc.FactoryFinder.find(FactoryFinder.java:137)
at javax.xml.rpc.ServiceFactory.newInstance(ServiceFactory.java:58)
at de.mtag.ws.samples.client.WebServiceClient.main(WebServiceClient.java:29)

The classpath of the webservice testclient contains the following JBoss-Client-Jars

activation.jar
commons-logging.jar
javaassist.jar
jbossall-client.jar
jbossws-client.jar
log4j.jar
mail.jar



Web Service Test Client

public class WebServiceClient {

 /**
 * @param args
 */
 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
 {
 String urlstr = args[0];
 String argument = args[1];

 System.out.println("Contacting webservice at " + urlstr);

 URL url = new URL(urlstr);

 String ns = "http://xx.xxx.ws.samples.services/simple";
 QName qname = new QName(ns, "SimpleWS");
 QName port = new QName(ns, "SimpleService");
 QName operation = new QName(ns, "echo");

 ServiceFactory factory = ServiceFactory.newInstance();
 Service service = factory.createService(url, qname);
 Call call = service.createCall(port, operation);

 System.out.println("SimpleService.echo(" + argument + ")");
 System.out.println("output:" + call.invoke(new Object[] {argument}));

 }

}

Service Endpoint Interface

public interface SimpleService {

 public String echo(String echo);

}

Service Endpoint Implementation

@WebService(
 name = "SimpleWS",
 targetNamespace = "http://xx.xxx.ws.samples.services/simple",
 serviceName = "SimpleWS"
 )
@SOAPBinding(style = SOAPBinding.Style.RPC)
public class SimpleEndpoint implements SimpleService {

 @WebMethod
 public String echo(String theEcho) {
 return theEcho;
 }

}

Hi all,

i found out what the problem was. You have to set the following jars of the Java Webservice Development Pack into the classpath.

jaxrpc-impl.jar
saaj-impl.jar
FastInfoset.jar

Then it works!
