Assembling web services applications

We can assemble Java-based web services applications using assembly tools.

We can assemble Java-based web services modules with assembly tools provided with the application server.

After you develop your web service application, you are now ready to assemble the application. Assembling a web service application consists of creating the Java EE modules that you can deploy onto application servers. The modules are created from code artifacts such as web application archives (WAR) files for JavaBeans applications or enterprise beans JAR files for enterprise beans applications. This packaging and configuring of code artifacts into enterprise application modules (EAR files) or standalone web modules is necessary for deploying the modules onto an application server.


Procedure

  1. Start an assembly tool. Read about starting the assembly tool in the Rational Application Developer documentation.
  2. Assemble your web services enabled bean into the appropriate module.

  3. Assemble the web services enabled module into an EAR file.

  4. Enable the EAR file for EJB modules that contain web services. When the EAR file contains EJB modules that contain web services, run the endptEnabler command-line tool or an assembly tool before deployment to produce a web services endpoint WAR file. This tool is also used to specify whether the web services are exposed using SOAP over JMS or SOAP over HTTP.

  5. Assemble a web services-enabled WAR file into an EAR file.


Results

You have a web services-enabled EAR file that you can deploy onto the application server.


What to do next

Now deploy the web services-enabled EAR file onto the application server.
