The aar files I create for my own projects, just contains the services.xml. See below for an example:
./myaar.aar ./META-INF ./META-INF/MANIFEST.MF ./META-INF/services.xml If your web services were created via codegen like adb, the stub files are the client, the skeleton is the service on the server side and can reside under WEB-INF/classes.
