SOAP WEB SERVICE WITH CXF (Bottom Up Approach)

Step-1

create a web project with maven support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Step2-

pom.xml

       

<dependency>

                             <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>

                             <artifactId>cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws</artifactId>

                             <version>${cxf.version}</version>

                   </dependency>

                   <dependency>

                             <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>

                             <artifactId>cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs</artifactId>

                             <version>${cxf.version}</version>

                   </dependency>

                   <dependency>

                             <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>

                             <artifactId>cxf-rt-transports-http</artifactId>

                             <version>${cxf.version}</version>

                   </dependency>

Step-3

Create Endpoint/Provider/SEI

import com.frog.controller.model.Frog;

@WebService

public interface FrogSoapService {

          @WebMethod

          public String uploadFrog(Frog frog);

          @WebMethod

          public Frog findFrogId(String fid);

          @WebMethod

          public List<Frog> findFrogs();

}

Step-4

Writting the implementation

@WebService(endpointInterface = "com.frog.cxf.soap.web.service.FrogSoapService")

//FrogSoapService = SEI

public class FrogSoapWebProvider implements FrogSoapService {

          @Override

          public String uploadFrog(Frog frog) {

                   // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                   return null;

          }

}

Step-5

create on spring based xml

where define /register the web service to url-pattern

/WEB-INF/cxf-soap.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"

          xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

          xmlns:jaxws="http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws"

    xmlns:jaxrs="http://cxf.apache.org/jaxrs"

          xsi:schemaLocation="

http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans

http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd

http://cxf.apache.org/jaxrs

http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/jaxrs.xsd

http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws

http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/jaxws.xsd">

<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml" />

<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-soap.xml" />

<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-servlet.xml" />

<jaxws:endpoint

       id="bookShelfService"

       implementor="com.aranin.weblog4j.services.BookShelfServiceImpl"

       address="/bookshelfservice" />

</beans>

Step-6

Register web service inside the spring root web container which is manage by ContextLoaderListener

<!-- classpath:frogs-store.xml => src/main/resources/frogs-store.xml -->

          <context-param>

                   <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>

                   <param-value>classpath:frogs-store.xml /WEB-INF/cxf-soap.xml</param-value>

          </context-param>

          <!-- ApplicationContext applicationContext = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml"); -->

          <listener>

                   <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>

          </listener>

Step-7

Define Front Controller which will forward web service request to web service container which is manage by spring container

        <servlet>

       <servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>

          <servlet-class>

                   org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet

          </servlet-class>

          <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>

</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>

          <servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>

          <url-pattern>/cxf/*</url-pattern>

</servlet-mapping>

Step-8

Accessing web service...................

http://localhost:8090/mobile-app-mvc/cxf

http://localhost:8090/mobile-app-mvc/cxf/frogSoapProvider?wsdl

consuming soap web service

we need only wsdl URL

D:\NEW_WORKSPACE\workspace_java\mobile-app-consume-client-soap\src>

wsimport -keep -verbose http://localhost:8090/mobile-app-mvc/cxf/frogSoapProvider?wsdl -Xnocompile
