PROBLEM:
I would like to avoid deploying the admin tool in a production environment; hence I am interested in handwriting my 'own' soap.xml and DeployedServices.xml. However, I have noticed that unless even when the latter file is well-formed & valid, DeployedServices.xml corresponding to the org.apache.soap.server.XMLConfigManager does not get processed correctly. For example, the "id" of a service is left unspecified and I do not observe the exception that is supposed to be thrown [yes, I did look at the source]. Similarly, I can leave the "class" implementing the service unspecified and observe no errors.
What gives?
Thanks,
Bishr
P.S. My configuration is
tomcat 3.2
apache-soap 2.2
jdk 1.3.1
win2k sp1
