web service call from bundle with jax-ws (working with felix 1.0.4, broken with felix 1.2.1)

[Kristof Taveirne]

Hello,

I'm facing a problem using web service in the new Felix 1.2.1.
What worked in 1.0.4 doesn't anymore in 1.2.1.

Here's what I did.
I created a simple hello world web service and deployed it on glassfishv2.
In netbeans I've created a web service reference to that web service.

This is what worked in Felix 1.0.4:


Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(Activator.this.getClass().getClassLoader());
            osgi.ws.test.HelloWordServiceService service = new
osgi.ws.test.HelloWordServiceService();
            osgi.ws.test.HelloWordService port =
service.getHelloWordServicePort();

I'm using JDK6, so i'm using the web service stack that comes with that.(no
axis or whatever).

On Felix 1.2.1 however, I get the following:

Any ideas how I can fix this?
All hints are very much appreciated!
