Class name
The class name of the JAX-WS Handler
Before you can create a handler configuration, make the handler class available to the application server in one of the following ways:
- Copy the individual class file into a directory structure under WAS_HOME/classes that matches the package name of the class, where WAS_HOME is the root directory for the installation of WAS. For example a handler class com.ibm.jaxws.handler.TestHandler is copied into the WAS_HOME/classes/com/ibm/jaxws/handler directory.
- Package the class files for all your handlers as a JAR file, then copy it into the WAS_HOME/lib/app directory.
