Hi,
I had been deploying most of my web services on the Sun App Server for testing. The Sun App Server would create the ties for the web service behind the scenes.

I deployed the same service on the JBoss Server, which did not contain the ties.

It worked fine. The war just contained the wsdl,mapping,interface and implementation class. No ties were in it.

My question is are ties required to be added to the war file, what role do they play. If they are required how does the web service on JBoss work without them.
