Web Services Programming APIs
APIs for RPC-based Web Services:
– JAX-RPC (Java API for XML-RPC)
– Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) sends SOAP method
calls to remote parties over the Internet and receives the results
APIs for Message-based Web Services:
– JAXM (Java API for XML Messaging)
– Java API for XML Messaging (JAXM) sends SOAP messages over
the Internet in a standard way
APIs for publishing and discovering Web Services:
– JAXR (Java API for XML Registry)
– Java API for XML Registries (JAXR) provides a standard way to
access business registries and share information
JAXR
Java API for XML Registry
Enables Java programs to access XML
registries.
JAXR provider:
– Accesses XML registry.
JAXR client:
– A client program that accesses an XML registry
using JAXR API.
– Perform queries and update UDDI registries.
JAX-RPC
API for XML-based RPC
Sends SOAP method calls to remote parties
over the Internet and receives the results

Apache Software Foundation
Who is Apache
– an open community of Java developers
worldwide.
Open Source
– Lots of free software (just great!)
Downside
– Lack of support
– Use at your own risk
Tools &APIs: Apache Axis
Apache SOAP: First Open Source SOAP
Implementation
Axis next generation Apache SOAP, New
Code base – lessons learned from Apache
SOAP development
Implements JAX-RPC (alternative to SUN’s
JAX-RPC)
Axis Tools
Support for WSDL
Java2WSDL
– for building WSDL from Java classes
WSDL2Java
– for building Java proxies and skeletons from
WSDL documents
Runtime Environment
Web Server
– Apache Tomcat
– Allows to access Java application provided via
an HTTP server
• http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/
SOAP engine
– Apache Axis
• http://ws.apache.org/axis/
HTTP Server (e.g. Apache Tomcat)

Install & Deploy Apache Axis
Direcotry Structure:
Make sure that you have
– J2SE SDK. We will use 1.4
– A Servlet Container: We will use
Tomcat 4.1

Apache Axis
Installation
– Copy webapps\axis, paste to tomcat\webapps\
– Run Tomcat: issue bin\startup from
Tomcat home.
– Installation Testing

Web Services deployment
Test the Deployment
Point your browser to
http://localhost:8080/axis
Different web service creation
paths
From an existing application – bottom-up
– Most common. We like to expose existing back-end
systems for enterprise integration (EAI) purposes.
From WSDL, generate a completely new
application – top-down
– The wizards can create skeleton code from WSDL, we
then fill up the details
Combine independent web services to provide
new functionality.
Creating a Web Service in Java
Typical steps:
1. Create the application
2. Generate WSDL document using some Web
Service tool
3. Deploy Web Service to a Web Server
4. Generate client stubs from WSDL
5. Create client application
Then publish, discover and use web service
Develop a service
Step 1 – Write a Java Class
public class AdderImpl implements Adder
{
public int add(int x, int y) throws RemoteException
{
return x + y;
}
}
Adder.java
public interface Adder {
int add (int x, int y);
}
AdderImpl.java
public class AdderImpl implements Adder
{
public int add(int x, int y) throws RemoteException
{
return x + y;
}
}
Develop a service
Step 2 - Deploy to the SOAP engine
– Create the deployment descriptor (*.wsdd)
<deployment xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/"
xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">
<service name=“adderService" provider="java:RPC">
<parameter name="className" value=“AdderImpl"/>
<parameter name="allowedMethods" value=“*"/>
</service>
</deployment>
Develop a service
Step 2 - Deploy to the SOAP engine
– Copy the Java Class to the Web Server
– Start the Web Server
– Deploy
java org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient *.wsdd
Develop a service
Step 3 - Check
– Check (List all services)
http://localhost:8080/axis/servlet/AxisServlet
Consume a service
Step 1 – Get the WSDL file of the service
– Java2WSDL (usage example)
java org.apache.axis.wsdl.Java2WSDL
location
-o adder.wsdl
output
-l http://localhost:8080/axis/services/adderService
-n http://cop4991/adder
adderImpl
namespace
class name
– We use this tool because the service is built by
ourselves (we have the Java Class)
Consume a service
Step 2 – Generate the Client Stub
– WSDL2Java (usage example)
java org.apache.axis.wsdl.WSDL2Java myecho.wsdl
– 4 files will be generated
interface
• AdderImpl.java
Service
• AdderImplService.java
• AdderImplServiceLocator.java
• AdderServiceSoapBindingStub.java
Service factory
Binding stub
Consume a service
Step 3 – Write the Client Program
…
// Make a service
AdderImplService adderService = new AdderImplServiceLocator();
// Now use the service to get a stub
AdderImpl adder = adderService.getadderService();
// Make the actual call
int sum = adder.add(10,9);
…
AdderClient.java
public class AdderClient{
public static void main(String[] args){
try{
//Make a service instance
AdderImplService adderService = new AdderImplServiceLocator();
//Now use the service to get a stub
AdderImpl adder = adderService.getadderService();
//Make the actual call
int sum = adder.add(10,9);
System.out.println("the sum is: "+sum);
}catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
}
}
Static Stub Client
Our client is static
– Tightly bound to generated stub
– Can only use one service
Dynamic Clients
– Use WSIF (Web Service Invocation
Framework) instead
