Hello, I'm trying to deploy a simple SOAP service to WebSphere 4.0, and not having any luck.
I'm confused at the part in the instructions where WebSphere says: "Package the code artifact into an Enterprise Archive. This step is a deployment packaging requirement of WebSphere Application Server. Use the Application Assembly Tool (AAT) to package the artifact." All I am trying to do is to package up a single HelloWorld class. I've written the java program, compiled it, and I've written my Apache SOAP deployment descriptor. But now what? When I run the Application Assembly Tool, it allows me to create an EAR, but then the only things I can figure out how to put into the ear are EJB modules, Web modules, and application clients. But I don't have any of those modules. I just have a Java class file that I want to access using SOAP. Does WebSphere want me to make a J2EE module of some sort? What kind? What should my application.xml file look like? Can anybody send me some simple step-by-step instructions for how to package up my class into an EAR file which WebSphere will recognize? thanks, bryan
