I haven't tried this before, but maybe you could leverage the .jws that axis supports...perhaps by writing a servlet that allows you to upload .jws files? This is clearly more of a hack than anything else, and I don't even know if it'd work. In addition, it limits the types of web services you can programmatically add to the scope of jws, has security implications...blah blah blah.
just a crazy thought... -----Original Message----- From: Bradley Mazurek [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2005 10:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Programmatic deployment of web services On the Axis wiki I see the following question: Q) How do I deploy a service on web application initialization? In the last message of the thread that questions' answer refers to, I see the following: > I need to deploy and undeploy services programmatically.

I searched the mailing list, but couldn't find any relevent answers. Does anyone have any advice on how to go about programmatically deploying and undeploying services, or at least appropriate places in the source code to begin looking?
