Vinodh,
We use maven to copy the aar file into the WEB/services directory of the
webapp. If you build your aar file first using maven, then build your war, you
can use the following pom.xml snippet to copy your aar into your WAR. It would
be really nice if the Axis2 WAR distribution was deployed to the ibiblio maven
repository as this would make it much easier to use and extend the default
Axis2 WAR distribution.
AAR files that are included in the WEB-INF/services directory are deployed on
startup of the webapp.

Subject: [Axis2] How to use Axis library in a war file
Hi,
I have basic question here, I m not sure whether it is addressed in the
forum before.
I have webapplication written, and I want to expose the business logic
of the web application as service, to serve other stand alone clients.
I have used AXIS to expose service, so now I have two file.
1. WebArchive file(war)
2.AxisArchive file (aar)
We have business logic packaged as two file, .war file for web
client(browsers) and .aar file for stand alone client.
Logically I should have just one file which should serve all clients. Is
there any means by which I can use Axis as library in .war file.
Is it possible to bundle the .aar file in the war file?????
Any pointers to the examples or documents for the same would be of great
help.
