Configuring the JAX-RPC web services client deployment descriptor with an assembly tool
You can configure JAX-RPC web services client deployment descriptor with an assembly tool.
Before you begin
You can configure deployment descriptors with assembly tools provided with WebSphere® Application Server.
Also, you need an enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) Java™ archive (JAR) file, web application archive (WAR) file or an application client file that you can import into the assembly tool.Assemble the client JAR file into an EAR file or assemble the client WAR file into an EAR file. To learn more, see the information on assembling a web services-enabled client JAR file into an EAR file or assembling a web services-enabled client WAR file into an EAR file.
About this task
Complete this task if you are developing a managed client that runs in the Java EE client container. This task is done after you assemble the EJB or web module.
Procedure
- Start an assembly tool. Read about starting the assembly tool in the Rational® Application Developer information.
- If you have not done so already, configure the assembly tool so that it works on Java EE modules. You need to make sure that the Java EE and Web categories are enabled. Read about configuring the assembly tool in the Rational Application Developer information.
- Migrate the web application archive (WAR) or Java Archive (JAR) files that are created with the Assembly Toolkit, Application Assembly Tool (AAT) or a different tool to assembly tools. To migrate files, import your WAR or JAR files to the assembly tool. Read about migrating code artifacts to an assembly tool in the Rational Application Developer information.
- Configure the client deployment descriptor. Read about the configuring the client deployment descriptor in the Rational Application Developer information.
