The effort spent learning Maven will pay off rather quickly, and also
web services--REST or SOAP--are an easy, pleasant way to quickly get up
to speed with this fine build tool. CXF services are also an easy way
to learn more about Spring--but Spring knowledge is not that important,
it ultimately is just Java code, we just happen to use Spring instead of
reinventing the wheel.
The Talend JAX-RS Advanced example explained here:
http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/video_tsf_jaxrs_advanced_example, is
fully Mavenized (has an architecture you can copy for your own work) and
has an ability to be deployed on standalone Tomcat (even though the
video uses OSGi deployment instead) -- just check the README of that
sample for Tomcat deployment.
I'd recommend my WSDL first tutorial
(http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/web_service_tutorial) not so much
for learning about SOAP but just a quick way to get up to speed with
Maven: building projects with it (mvn clean install) and deploying to
Tomcat (mvn tomcat:redeploy). Eclipse should just be for coding, if you
use it for project building and servlet container deployment it will
slow you down over time.

Dear CXF Users,
I'm trying to develop a RESTful interface (JAX-RS) using Apache CXF, and I'd
like to deploy it into a Tomcat Server from the Eclipse IDE. I found this
tutorial
(http://pettergraff.blogspot.com/2010/11/developing-web-service-in-eclipse.html),
which describes the needed steps for a normal Web service (JAX-WS) very
detailed, but I didn't find any tutorials for the creation of RESTful
interfaces. Is there such a tutorial around, or could you provide me with a
short sequence of the necessary steps to accomplish the deployment of the
server and client side components. As I don't know much about Maven and nothing
about Spring, I'd like to omit these technologies in the first step, but if I
need them, or if they make it much easier, I'll have a closer look at them.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Klaus
