Interacting with the Java EE container in WAS

How, and to what extent, WSIF interacts with the Java EE container that is provided in WAS.

We can interact with a container in any of the following ways:

 

• Use the appserver admin console to define Web services to WAS. This task

  See:

  • Use WSIF to bind a JNDI reference to a Web service Li> Manage WSIF

  As part of the definition of a service, the administrator might define a "preferred port".

• Use WSIF to make log and trace calls to the JRAS services in WAS.

• Use WSIF providers to access Java EE services. For example, use the EJB provider to access the JNDI and make calls to remote enterprise beans.

• Use WSIF to wrap the use of container services so that, when WSIF is run in an unmanaged (thin) environment, the operation can succeed.
