Hi Sergey
Glad to say that it's all working fine - thanks a lot for your help. So I've
now got web-container managed basic-authentication with https transport and I
can build resful web-services using JAX-RS with CXF. Great!
Good news, thanks for confirming
As a matter of interest you said that I could "delay working with Application" as a next
step. What is "Application" and why is it more desirable than working with service
classes? This is just a beginning for me on this stuff and it is hard to work out some of the docs.
Application is a JAX-RS 'container' which packages service classes and
providers, using Application offers a portable approach toward deploying
JAX-RS services, but it requires a bit more work this is why I suggested
to do it next
http://jax-rs-spec.java.net/nonav/2.0/apidocs/javax/ws/rs/core/Application.html
HTH, Sergey

Hi Sergey - I'm ready to try things now with a fresh Tomcat deployment
configured to use Basic Auth container-based security and HTTPS for any
servlet I choose. Now it's time to try out CXF. Have to say I'm finding
the apparent lack of an idiot's guide/hello world quite hard to deal with.
Since I don't want to add Spring to the mix, I assume that I should be
consulting
http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jaxrs-services-configuration.html#JAXRSServicesConfiguration-ConfiguringJAXRSservicesincontainerwithoutSpring
- right?
To try a simple service which web.xml fragment should I use? In the
documentation there are several xml fragments. I am guessing that I should
use the following right (I want to write only JAX-RS services)?
<servlet>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<display-name>CXF Servlet</display-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.servlet.CXFNonSpringJaxrsServlet
</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
<param-value>
org.apache.cxf.systest.jaxrs.BookApplication
(name=1 id=2)
</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
Yes, you can delay starting working with Application, do it at the next
step, try first registering a basic JAX-RS service class first:
<init-param>
<param-name>jaxrs.serviceClasses</param-name>
<param-value>
org.bar.SimpleJaxrsService
</param-value>
</init-param>
Is there some guide to how to set things up first? For example, I'm
assuming that I need to set up the CXF_HOME env variable? Which jars should
be in my project's lib folder - there are many? Etc?
The simplest option is download a CXF distro and copy all the libs from
there; using Maven can be more effective, especially with
3.0.0-SNAPSHOT, where Dan refactored the JAX-RS frontend to have a bare
minimum of dependencies
Cheers, Sergey
