Set a JAX-WS Web service for WS-Transaction context
Configure the way that a Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) service handles Web Services Atomic Transaction (WS-AT) or Web Services Business Activity (WS-BA) context by configuring the Web Services Transaction (WS-Transaction) policy type. We can specify that the Web service must receive context, can receive context if it is available, or must not receive context.
A JAX-WS client must be installed.
Configure a WS-Transaction policy set using the admin console as described in this task, or we can configure a WS-Transaction policy set using wsadmin.
To configure a JAX-WS service for WS-Transaction context using the admin console...
- Create a new policy set, or copy and rename an existing policy set. We can copy an existing user-defined policy set, or one of the WS-Transaction default policy sets (WSTransaction or SSL WSTransaction). See Create policy sets .
- Check that the policy set includes the WS-Transaction policy type. If necessary, add the WS-Transaction policy type. See Add policies to policy sets .
- Set the WS-Transaction policy.
- Associate the policy set with the JAX-WS Web service, endpoint, or operation for which the specified behavior is required. See Manage policy sets and bindings for service providers.
- Save the changes to the master configuration.
Next steps
The JAX-WS Web service, endpoint, or operation is configured to use WS-Transaction context in the way specified.
