Steps for this task
Results
The artifacts required to enable the client module to use Web services are added to the module.Example
This example uses a JAR file named AddressBookClient.jar and an EAR file named AddressBookClient.ear:
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF META-INF/application-client.xml META-INF/wsdl/AddressBook.wsdl META-INF/webservicesclient.xml META-INF/AddressBook_mapping.xml com/ibm/websphere/samples/webservices/addr/Address.class com/ibm/websphere/samples/webservices/addr/AddressBook.class com/ibm/websphere/samples/webservices/addr/AddressBookClient.class com/ibm/websphere/samples/webservices/addr/AddressBookService.class ...other generated classes...
After assembling the AddressBookClient.jar file into the AddressBookClient.ear file, the AddressBookClient.ear file contains the following files:
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF AddressBookClient.jar META-INF/application.xml
What to do next
Configure the webservicesclient.xml deployment descriptor .
