You can put the aar file of your axis2 code in your existing application, by creating a WEB-INF/services directory that includes your aar. Your aar file can include your axis2 code though that could alternatively go into WEB-INF/classes as normal.
The aar file needs at least your services.xml. The axis2 jar dependencies depends on your use case. Here's what I use for my json and soap services, as an example. axis2-adb-1.7.9.jar axis2-jaxws-1.7.9.jar axis2-spring-1.7.9.jar axis2-jibx-1.7.9.jar axis2-transport-http-1.7.9.jar axis2-json-1.7.9.jar axis2-transport-local-1.7.9.jar axis2-codegen-1.7.9.jar axis2-kernel-1.7.9.jar axis2-java2wsdl-1.7.9.jar axis2-metadata-1.7.9.jar Robert On Sun, Sep 6, 2020 at 9:04 AM Murali Challa <challamura...@gmail.com> wrote: > So if I keep the Axis2 war file in my websphere, there is no need to keep > Axis2 jar in lib folder of actual application? > > And in which location of websphere I need to keep this Axis2 war and how > my app is going to refer to that war to run the webseries of my application? > > Might be asking more questions, but want to understand how Axis2 war > integrated in our actual application. > > Thank you so much for your patience and help.. > > > On Mon, 7 Sep 2020, 12:02 am robertlazarski, <robertlazar...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Please see my comments inline: >> >> On Sun, Sep 6, 2020 at 7:54 AM Murali Challa <challamura...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >>> Hi Robert , >>> >>> Do we need have the Axis2 war file in websphere to use Axis2 jar file in >>> our application? >>> >> >> Yes, axis2 as a web services server typically runs as a standard webapp >> ... at least if your intention is to run it in an app server like >> Websphere.
