How to create a Axis webservice? 1

[jollyplay]

Hi,

I want to create an Axis webservice using servlet. I'm able to write the client code but I'm struggling in writting the server code (to handle SOAP request in the server code).

I wrote a java class and rename it as .jws file extension it's working fine. But I need to write a servlet for the server.

Its very urgent. Please kindly give me some suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

Whenever I have worked with Axis on the server side, all I did was write a handler class, ie like this :

package com.acme;
public class ServiceHandler {

  public String someMethodAClientCanCall(String param1) {
     return "Hello World !";
  }
}

Then I deployed this code in a webapp, with a file called server-config.wsdd :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deployment xmlns="[URL unfurl="true"]http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/"[/URL] xmlns:java="[URL unfurl="true"]http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">[/URL]
 <globalConfiguration>
  <parameter name="sendXsiTypes" value="true"/>
  <parameter name="sendMultiRefs" value="true"/>
  <parameter name="sendXMLDeclaration" value="true"/>
  <parameter name="axis.sendMinimizedElements" value="true"/>
 </globalConfiguration>
 <handler name="LocalResponder" type="java:org.apache.axis.transport.local.LocalResponder"/>
 <handler name="URLMapper" type="java:org.apache.axis.handlers.http.URLMapper"/>
 <handler name="Authenticate" type="java:org.apache.axis.handlers.SimpleAuthenticationHandler"/>


 <service name="main" provider="java:RPC">
  <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="someMethodAClientCanCall"/>
  <parameter name="wsdlServicePort" value="someMethodAClientCanCall"/>
  <parameter name="className" value="com.acme.ServiceHandler"/>
 </service>


 <transport name="http">
  <requestFlow>
   <handler type="URLMapper"/>
   <handler type="java:org.apache.axis.handlers.http.HTTPAuthHandler"/>
  </requestFlow>
 </transport>
 <transport name="local">
  <responseFlow>
   <handler type="LocalResponder"/>
  </responseFlow>
 </transport>
</deployment>

Then axis will create a WSDL from your handler class, and your web services/soap service will be created.

I have no idea ...
Why do you need to send the IP address of the client back to the client (surely the client knows its own IP) ?
