Top-down development problem
I am trying to follow the docs at http://jbws.dyndns.org/mediawiki/index.php/JAX-WS_User_Guide#Top-Down_.28Using_wsconsume.29 to create a Web service using the top-down method. What I did was first use the bottom-up method, and after deploying the Web service, I ran wsprovide to create the WSDL. In addition, I wrote a client that that accessed the Web service to ensure that it works. So far so good.
Then I used wsconsume to create the Java stubs, using the interface that was generated to write my Web service endpoint class, packaged the necessary classes, web.xml and wsdl in a war file and deployed it. Now when I access the endpoint with my client, I get an error because the container is attempting to instantiate the interface, not the implementation class.
My Web service looks exactly like the one in the documentation, with a few changes:
1) When I created the original bottom-up endpoint, I added the @SOAPBinding(style=SOAPBinding.Style.RPC) annotation to it. Thus when the wsconsume generated the stubs from the WSDL, I got only two classes: Echo.java and EchoService.java.
2) Since I wanted to use the original WSDL, I modified the generated Echo.java to reference the WSDL that I packaged in the war file (without this change, JBossWS will re-generate the WSDL when the web service is deployed, which sort of defeats the whole purpose of top-down development; I could never figure out if there was a default WSDL location; and this property was ignored when I placed it on the implementation class):
@WebService(name="Echo", targetNamespace = "http://echo/", wsdlLocation="WEB-INF/wsdl/EchoService.wsdl")
My war file has the following contents:
WEB-INF/classes/echo/Echo.class
WEB-INF/classes/echo/EchoImpl.class
WEB-INF/web.xml
WEB-INF/wsdl/EchoService.wsdl
When I run my client, I get the following error on the server:
09:07:10,941 ERROR [SOAPFaultHelperJAXWS] SOAP request exception

By the way, I am running JBossWS 1.2 on JBoss AS 5.0 beta2 (pulled on March 5th)
