Configuring the ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi deployment descriptor

This topic explains how to configure the ibm-webservices-bnd.xml deployment descriptor.

Before you begin

Note: The ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi deployment descriptor is for JAX-RPC based Web services application. It is not required for JAX-WS enabled application.

To configure the client deployment descriptor see "Client Deployment Descriptor editor" in the Application Server Toolkit documentation for more information.

Before you can configure the ibm-webservices-bnd.xml deployment descriptor, you must develop the deployment descriptor templates and complete the implementation.

About this task

This task is one of the steps in developing a Web service. You need to configure the deployment descriptors so that WebSphere Application Server can process the incoming Web services requests.

Then, complete the EJB implementation or complete the JavaBeans implementation. When the EJB implementation is complete, the enterprise bean Java archive (JAR) file is assembled. When the JavaBeans implementation is complete, the Web module Web archive (WAR) file is assembled. These archive files contain the webservices.xml deployment descriptor. The archive files must be assembled before you can configure the webservices.xml deployment descriptor.

Configure the webservices.xml deployment descriptor by following the steps provided in this task section.

Procedure

  1. Start an assembly tool. See "Starting WebSphere Application Server Toolkit" in the Application Server Toolkit documentation for more information.
  2. If you have not done so already, configure the assembly tool to work on J2EE modules. Make sure that the J2EE and Web categories are enabled. See "Configuring WebSphere Application Server Toolkit" in the Application Server Toolkit documentation for more information.
  3. Migrate the Web archive (WAR) files that are created with the Assembly Toolkit, Application Assembly Tool (AAT) or a different tool to an Application Server Toolkit or other assembly tools. To migrate files, import your WAR files to the assembly tool. See "Importing Web archive (WAR) files" in the Application Server Toolkit documentation for more information.
  4. Configure the client deployment descriptor. See "Editing Web services" in the Application Server Toolkit documentation for more information.

Results

The ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi deployment descriptor is configured for the Web service implementation module.

What to do next

If you are developing a Web service from a Java bean, assemble a WAR file that is enabled for Web services from Java code.

If you are developing a Web service from an enterprise bean, assemble a JAR file that is enabled for Web services from an enterprise bean. In this task you assemble the artifacts that are required to enable the EJB module for Web services into the JAR file.
