Set up a development environment for Web services

WebSphere Application Server provides command-line tools to develop Web services clients and implementations that are based on the Web Services for J2EE specification. Set up your development environment before you start the developing Web services.

Before you can set up a Web services development environment within WebSphere Application Server, Install WebSphere Application Server.

Overview

Set up a Web services development environment by completing the following actions.

Procedure

Set up the environment.

Run the setupCmdLine script on the Qshell command line from the . /profile_root/bin directory.

Results

You have set up an environment so that you can develop Web services. If you get a NullPointerException error when the HTTP basic authentication fails, you can fix the problem by including <JAVA_HOME>\jre\lib\ext in the classpath at the command-line, or by manually editing it at WAS_EXT_DIRS.

What to do next

Implement Web services applications. This topic is a good starting point in learning about how to develop and implement a J2EE Web service.
