Problem with the (DOSGi) CXF JAX-WS Frontend

[Nikos Kefalakis]

Hi,

 

I would like to initialize a web service by using the JAX-WS frontend.

I am using the CXF (single bundle distribution) Version 1.3 (it worths to
mention that I had never successfully managed to make the multi bundle
distribution to work) with Apache Felix.

"javax.jws.*" and "javax.xml.bind.annotation.*"  has been imported into the
interface (ALEServicePortType) which has been generated from a WSDL by using
CXF 2.2.9 (wsdl2java).

 

I am using the following code at the Activator:

 

       

       public void start(BundleContext bundleContext) throws Exception {

              

 

              // ===================Initialize Service using CXF JAX-WS
frontend ===========

              Dictionary<String, String> dictionaryProps = new
Hashtable<String, String>();

 

              dictionaryProps.put("service.exported.interfaces", "*");

              dictionaryProps.put("service.exported.configs",
"org.apache.cxf.ws");

              dictionaryProps.put("org.apache.cxf.ws.address ",
"http://localhost:9090/ALEService"; );

              dictionaryProps.put("org.apache.cxf.ws.frontend","jaxws");

              dictionaryProps.put("org.apache.cxf.ws.databinding","jaxb");

 

 

              ServiceRegistration =
bundleContext.registerService(ALEServicePortType.class.getName(),

                           new ALEServicePortTypeImpl(), dictionaryProps);

       }      

 

Although I have successfully managed to make the service run by using the
CXF 'simple' frontend by only using :

              dictionaryProps.put("service.exported.interfaces", "*");

              dictionaryProps.put("service.exported.configs",
"org.apache.cxf.ws");

              dictionaryProps.put("org.apache.cxf.ws.address",
aleLrServiceURL);

              ServiceRegistration =
bundleContext.registerService(ALEServicePortType.class.getName(),

                           new ALEServicePortTypeImpl(), dictionaryProps);

 

 

Where I get the complete WSDL by using the
"http://localhost:9090/ALEService?wsdl"; in a browser I am not able to make
it work  by using the jaxws frontend where I get the following:

 

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> 

- <wsdl:definitions name="ALEServicePortTypeService"
targetNamespace="http://ale.wsdl.ale.commons.aspirerfid.ow2.org/";
xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http";
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/";
xmlns:tns="http://ale.wsdl.ale.commons.aspirerfid.ow2.org/";
xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";>

  <wsdl:portType name="ALEServicePortType" /> 

- <wsdl:binding name="ALEServicePortTypeServiceSoapBinding"
type="tns:ALEServicePortType">

  <soap:binding style="document"
transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http"; /> 

  </wsdl:binding>

- <wsdl:service name="ALEServicePortTypeService">

- <wsdl:port binding="tns:ALEServicePortTypeServiceSoapBinding"
name="ALEServicePortTypePort">

  <soap:address location="http://localhost:9090/ALEService"; /> 

  </wsdl:port>

  </wsdl:service>

  </wsdl:definitions>

 

 

Where the service name is "ALEServicePortTypeService" instead of
"ALEServicePortType"

 

Could anyone help me with this?

 

Thank you in advance!
