Schema-first WS development with JBossWS

[tejasjani]

Hi...

I am trying to figure out how to do schema-first development with JBossWS. I have a WSDL that I am starting out with and would like to know the steps in going to the WS implementation and deployment from a WSDL file.

Has anyone tried JBossWS with this approach ?

Any insights are appreciated.

thanks

Hi Thomas, thanks for the reply.

This link talks about the client side. I am referring to the server-side on how to implement and deploy the service when one starts out with a WSDL. The JBoss documentation does not seem to address this approach, as it seems to auto-generate WSDL and mapping files using wstools. Also it does not address how does one generate the type classes.

I would appreciate if I can get some pointers as we are currently evaluating if JBossWS is the right way for us to go.

thanks in advance

Hi!

the jbossws-support in jbosside 2.0 beta2 has initial support for this (ie generating server side java from wsdl).. have a look at the tutorials at http://www.soapui.org/jbossws/topdown.html..

If I remember correctly, you need to;

1) generate java artifacts from your wsdl using wstools wsdl2java
2) implement the generated interface
3) publish the implementaion using wstools java2wstools (for creating the correct descriptors/config files required for deployment)

The tutorial covers these step together with a walk-through example.. let me know if you have any troubles..

Hi,

I just tried to use this plug-in and I am encountering problems importing the wsdl file from my local machine.

It just gives me an exception saying:

Error importing wsdl:org.apache.xml.xmlBeans.XMLException:error: Prefix not specified.

I have checked the wsdl and am not able to find any issues with it.

Any hints on what could be wrong ?

Hi!

Could you mail/show me the WSDL so I can have a look?

Hi Ole, I just sent you the wsdl file in an email.
