Developing SOAP Web service using Metro framework @ Bottom Up

Step-1
Create web project with maven support

step-2
Add below dependency to add feature of metro framework in the project..

!-- This jar is for metro implementation -->

          <dependency>

              <groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>

              <artifactId>jaxws-rt</artifactId>

              <version>2.2.3</version>

          </dependency>

Step-3
create business object...
public class Frog {

private String fid;
private String name;
private String color;
private String breed;
private String email;

private int age;
}


Step-4
//This is called web service provider/web service endpoint
//here we are exposing the data for other application.
//this will communicate with under laying system and
//expose data to the other application.

@WebService
public class FrogDataProvider {

public String uploadFrog(Frog frog){
System.out.println("_@_#_#_#_#_#_"+frog);
System.out.println("_@_#_#_#_#_#_"+frog);
System.out.println("_@_#_#_#_#_#_"+frog);
System.out.println("_@_#_#_#_#_#_"+frog);
System.out.println("_@_#_#_#_#_#_"+frog);
return "data is uploaded";
}

public List<Frog> findFrogs(){
List<Frog> frogs=new ArrayList<Frog>();
System.out.println("Fetching web service data");
return frogs;
}

}


Step-5
Registering the web service provider for web service container
create one xml file for soap web service configuration
 name =
/WEB-INF/sun-jaxws.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<endpoints
  xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jax-ws/ri/runtime"
  version="2.0">
  <!-- Here we are registering web service
  our web service can be accessed by below url-pattern
   -->
  <endpoint
      name="FrogDataProvider"
      implementation="com.it.frog.soap.provider.FrogDataProvider"
      url-pattern="/frogDataProvider"/>

</endpoints>

here web service is registered with frogDataProvider



Step-6
Configuring web service container......
web.xml

<listener>

        <listener-class>

                com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServletContextListener

        </listener-class>

    </listener>

/WEB-INF/sun-jaxws.xml

Note : above listener will read the xml file configure in step-5

to register all the web service inside web service container...

Step-7

Expose the registered web service............................

to the outside the world......same as servlet..

<servlet>

        <servlet-name>kuchbhi</servlet-name>

        <servlet-class>

          com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServlet

        </servlet-class>

        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>

    </servlet>

   

    <servlet-mapping>

        <servlet-name>kuchbhi</servlet-name>

        <url-pattern>/frogDataProvider</url-pattern>

    </servlet-mapping>

when you type url-pattern your request will be forwarded to 
WSServlet and it will further forward the request to web service container
created by   WSServletContextListener


Step-8
Access the web service  WSDL(Web Service Description Language)
WSDL is interface/contract between web service provide and consumer...
