Hi there,

i´m facing the following problem. I run a webservice (generated bei jax-ws) in my webapp on tomcat.
My Tomcat 6 has the embedded jboss and metro inside.
I want to have a stateless service called sendCustomer. Inside the service method i want to create
a new session with a new conversation and prefill a few seam components (which have the scope conversation)
with some data from the webservice request.

How can i create a new Session and Conversation ? I know how to get the Conv.Id but how can i want to send
back a link to my webapp with the sessionId and conv.Id. The client should be able than to call the link via browser.

I´ve tried the standard-jaxws-endpoint-config.xml in a META-INF directory, but it wasn´t read by the framework.
I´ve no EAR file, i´m working with WAR, so i placed the file under WEB-INF/META-INF/standard-jaxws-endpoint-config.xml
Also i´m pretty sure that Lifecycle.beginCall(); isn´t the right way to do it ;-)

@WebService(endpointInterface='com.generali.fipos.iss.sales.mappings.webservice.evpconnect.EvpCommonPort')
public class _EvpConnectServiceImpl implements EvpCommonPort, Serializable {

...
@Override
public SendCustomerResponse sendCustomer(SendCustomerRequest request) throws EvpServiceFault_Exception {
        log.error("Webservice 'sendCustomer' started");
        Lifecycle.beginCall();
        final SendCustomerResponse response = of.createSendCustomerResponse();
        try{
                Conversation.instance().begin();
                System.out.println(Contexts.getApplicationContext().hashCode());
                response.setCustomerID(new BigInteger("1"));
        }catch(Throwable t) {
                t.printStackTrace();
                response.setEvpServiceFault(WebserviceTools.getEvpServiceFault(of.createEvpServiceFault(), 0, 0, t.getMessage()));
        }
        Lifecycle.endCall();
        return response;
}
...
