Develop Web services deployment descriptor templates for a Java bean implementation

To develop the deployment descriptor templates from a WSDL file, obtain the URL of the WSDL file to use.

For UNIX platforms, the URL looks like...

file:/path/file_name.wsdl

You can also specify local files using the absolute or relative file system path.

When the Web service implementation is a Java bean in a Web module, the webservices.xml, ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi and ibm-webservices.ext.xmi deployment descriptors and the Java API for XML-based remote procedure call (JAX-RPC) mapping file are generated in the WEB-INF subdirectory.

To develop deployment descriptor templates...

  1. Run the WSDL2Java -verbose -role develop-server -container web -genJava no wsdlURL command to generate the server deployment descriptor templates and mapping file into the WEB-INF subdirectory. If the -verbose option is specified, a list of all generated files displays when the command runs.

Deployment descriptor templates that are required to implement or use a Web service.

 

Usage Scenario

The following example uses a WSDL file named AddressBookJ2WB.wsdl...

  1. Generate the template files...

    • WSDL2Java -verbose -role develop-server -container web -genJava no AddressBookJ2WB.wsdl

    The deployment descriptor templates and mapping file are generated into the WEB-INF subdirectory as follows

    Parsing XML file: AddressBookJ2WB.wsdl
    Generating: WEB-INF\webservices.xml
    Generating: WEB-INF\ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi
    Generating: WEB-INF\ibm-webservices-ext.xmi
    Generating: WEB-INF\AddressBookJ2WB_mapping.xml
