Yea, really. :-)
Seriously, if the there isn't a spring context listener, we'll create
a default bus using our default bus configurations and grab the WEB-
INF/cxf-servlet.xml file to load the cxf spring bean definitions.
(jaxws:endpoint things for example).
This is "simple" to configure. I think all of our samples if you do
"ant war" in them, it generates a war that does it this way. I'd
like to change the samples to using the spring context way of doing
it, just never got around to it.
The downside is that application startup is slower and memory usage is
higher. The default bus created this way grabs ALL the cxf-extension-
* stuff which is quite possibly more than you need. This takes a bit
longer to initialize. Also, since cxf-servlet.xml is processed in a
child context, some things don't get injected quite the same as the
definitions in the parent context aren't available in the
subcontext. It's something to be aware of.

Really? I thought a context loader was required to kick off Spring,
but
I'm using other Spring related stuff too: Here's an example:
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>
classpath:configuration-context.xml
classpath:cxf-server-context.xml
classpath:datasource-ldap.xml
</param-value>
</context-param>
<!-- Loads the Spring application context -->
<listener>
<listener-
class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</
listener-class>
</listener>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<display-name>CXF Servlet</display-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/integration/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Re: do i need ContextLoaderListener?
If you are using a cxf-servlet.xml type thing to define your endpoint
beans, then no, you don't need it.

Hi everybody,
I'm using tomcat 5.5.x. In my web.xml I put the following lines,
just because it was said so in the cxf-documentation:
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
As far as I understood, the ContextLoaderListener is used when the
context of the webapp is reloaded, which only happens if the content
of WEB-INF/classes (resp. WEB-INF/lib) changes.
The only way of deployment I use is by war-files. So am I right,
that the registration of the ContextLoaderListener in web.xml is not
needed in this case?
Regards,
Abid
