Thanks Ian. I am using CXF on both ends. So, your solution works great
for me.
Cheers,

Hi,
I am getting an IllegalArgumentException (An operation with name
[{http://example.com}getGroups] already exists in this service) when
I have overloaded methods in my web service.
Is it not supported to have overloaded web service methods in JAX-WS?
I have the following methods:
public Groups getGroups();
public Groups getGroups(String pattern);
No, all the operations must have different names in the WSDL. If you
are using CXF on both client and server side, you can do something like:
@WebMethod
public Groups getGroups();
@WebMethod(operationName = "getGroupsByPattern")
public Groups getGroups(String pattern);
This would give the two operations different names in the WSDL, but
you can use the Java interface as the serviceClass of a
JaxWsProxyFactoryBean and call both methods via their overloaded name.
Ian
P.S. If you were to generate code from the WSDL you would get public
Groups getGroupsByPattern(String arg0), of course.
