4. Beginner - Web services with ServiceMix and CXF

On this page, we are going to create the cxf-se service unit. .

Using a Maven archetype to create the service unit project

ServiceMix provides several Maven archetypes to help you create your projects more rapidly and reliably.
We start off by using the servicemix-cxf-se-service-unit archetype which is used for creating a servicemix-cxf-se service unit project.

From our tutorial's project folder we run the following command to create a service unit project:

 
mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.servicemix.tooling 
                     -DarchetypeArtifactId=servicemix-cxf-se-service-unit 
                     -DgroupId=org.apache.servicemix.examples 
                     -DartifactId=my-cxf-se-su

Maven executes the archetype and reports BUILD SUCCESSFUL when it's done.

What is being generated?

First of all, the archetype creates the project folder my-cxf-se-su, containing:

a pom.xml file for building the service unit project
a directory src/main/resources containing a xbean.xml file for configuring the service unit
a directory src/main/java containing a org/apache/servicemix/examples/ExampleService.java for implementing our service.

Because we started Maven's archetype:create from the folder containing our root pom.xml Maven also added
the module to the root's pom.xml <modules> section.

 
 <module>my-cxf-se-su</module>

Now, we will have to configure the service unit to provide the services we want.
