Thanks! This got me started. Perhaps the easiest for a newby like me is to use the Maven jax-ws archetype. It was a snap. Plus your example helped me put it all together.

Question for any one. I have one service running fine using CXF with RAD7. I have a requirement to call another service that’s in a jar file from within my service. I have the wsdl for the other service, and I have generated the artifacts. However, I am not sure how to go about associating my service to this other service so that I can call it. Obviously, my service will act as a client of this new service. Please provide some assistance if anyone can.

Cheers!

Hello i am in an urgent need of help. its been a week but i am not able to figure out the problem; I have done exactly what you told. I have been able to successfully generate the .jar file with dependencies; I am using jonas server. When i run the client i get the following result 2010-09-20 15:04:37,167 : LoggingOutInterceptor$LoggingCallback.onClose : Outbound Message --------------------------- Encoding: UTF-8 Headers: {SOAPAction=[""], Accept=[*]} Messages: Payload: 10072601/10072 60100000001fr_FR1WSS-ATOL2032309 -------------------------------------- 2010-09-20 15:04:37,558 : LoggingInInterceptor.logging : Inbound Message ---------------------------- Encoding: UTF-8 Headers: {connection=[close], Date=[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 13:04:30 GMT], transfer-encoding=[chu nked], Server=[Apache], content-type=[text/xml;charset=utf-8]} Messages: Message: Payload: ns1:ClientNo such operation 'getB illingPeriodRangeRequest'dvedv332 The error is in this line --> No such operation 'getBillingPeriodRangeRequest' Its really strange coz it is looking for an operation which doesnt exist and which it shldnt be looking for this. Is ther anything wrong with my wsdl. The client code is: JaxWsProxyFactoryBean factory = new org.apache.cxf.jaxws.JaxWsProxyFactoryBean(); factory.setServiceClass(GetBillingPeriodRange.class); factory.setAddress(attributes.getWsURL().toString()); factory.getInInterceptors().add(new org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor()); factory.getOutInterceptors().add(new org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingOutInterceptor()); GetBillingPeriodRange billingService = (GetBillingPeriodRange) factory.create(); result=billingService.manageGetBillingPeriodRange(request); My wsdl is:

Hello i am in an urgent need of help. its been a week but i am not able to figure out the problem; I first converted wsdl to java and then created a jar file in MAVEN using apache cxf.

Hi Ben,
Your client example contains factory.setServiceClass(AuthService.class);
If I’m not mistaken AuthService class is part of your web service. If so then your client is tightly coupled with the web service implementation which is a ‘no-no’. Clients shouldn’t care about service implementations. All they need to know is WSDL. Here is an example of what i mean http://www.opendocs.net/apache/cxf/2.0/developing-a-consumer.html.
Thanks Ben!

thanks for the great article!

i have one question. in the client side we should enter this code:
factory.setAddress(“http://IPAddressOfTheServer:PortNember/serviceName”);
to invoke the web service

but in my case, to access to the web from the client Machine we should pass by a web proxy. how can I enter the ip adress of the web proxy using in the class Client
