I have an application deployed on Tomee which is hosting lots of web services which are written using Jersey framework.
How to identify how many web-services(URLs) are hosted by the application and what is the class having the source code?
I have gone through below article but it gives the list of hosted applications instead of giving list of web-services under one application.
List deployed webapps in Apache Tomcat
If you want an easy way to list these out visually, start up the application locally. Next launch jconsole and connect to the TomEE JVM.
You can then browse the CXF JMX Beans in the tree and you'll be able to find all the deployed endpoints.
I think Kekzpanda's comment is a great method to do this as well: in the startup log TomEE will list all of the deployed endpoints the Path to each.

I am currently working on a project which has a GWT frontend and a seperate Java module with servlets and a REST interface on the backend. The project when deployed runs on a single JBoss server.
I am running into difficulties though as when I run the GWT app in hosted mode (in eclipse) the jetty server does not have a deployed Java module to interact with.
My idea was to setup a JBoss server which eclipse could deploy into for development purposes, the problem with this is that the installer for the product sets up a JBoss server with a GWT app already embedded in it, so redeploying into this JBoss instance might cause problems?
My other idea would be to create a second JBoss server to host the GWT app, with some sort of url redirect for the rest calls which would redirect to the first JBoss instance. Is this possible?
EDIT: Can I do this with the built in jetty server in eclipse and not have to worry about using a seperate JBoss server. In other words can I somehow get the jetty server in eclipse to redirect particular requests to a different URL?
I would like to expose OSGi bundles as SOAP web services or in other words publish web service endpoints which are provided by OSGi bundles.
The architectural model/idea is that there is a host web application which is a normal war file deployed on JBoss (5.1.0 GA) offering a SOAP web service interface (JAX-WS).This host application starts the OSGi framework embedded (via ServletContextListener - currently Equinox) and loads a number of OSGi bundles which function as plugins.
The plugin bundles have a dependency to the host application as part of the request processing is delegated to them via internally defined interfaces.At the same time the plugin bundles should also be able to contribute an own public SOAP web service interface (endpoint implementations and the respective WSDL files to be published and made available by the application server).
The first approach we followed was that the host web application deploys a dispatcher/proxy servlet which delegates the processing to the relevant endpoints provided by the OSGi bundles.
There is the servlet bridge solution in OSGi/Equinox (BridgeServlet/HTTPServiceServlet) which enables the programmatic registration of servlets (for ex. in BundleActivators of the plugin bundles) using the HTTP Service specification.
The problem is that I have SOAP-based web service endpoints and would need to be able to wrap them in a javax.servlet.Servlet implementation.
That's usually an interna of the WS stack implementations of Java EE 5 servers which follow the servlet–based web services approach (endpoints defined as servlets in web.xml) and internally use to install native endpoint servlets for web service endpoints.
I did not find such a public endpoint servlet implementation which could be registered with the HTTP Service (maybe something similar like com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer which can be used to publish REST-based services for JAX-RS applications in OSGi)
I am a little surprised that I did not find as much about registering SOAP-based WS endpoints with the OSGi HTTP Service or may be I do not see the obvious.
I have found something similar, JAX-WS-Commons/Spring (spring support for configuring JAX-WS, http://jax-ws-commons.java.net/spring/), which internally uses the class WSServletDelegate of the JAX-WS RI (metro) to process web requests for the endpoints.
But I am not sure about it, it seems kind of deprecated and I need to provide the metro WS stack jars to JBoss (or in the war file) in order to make it work on JBoss 5.1.0 GA.
Another approach seems to be distributed OSGI, which allows to publish OSGi services for remote access.
However, I could not find clear information about how to provide these services as web services on JBoss.
Other realisation aspects are:
we are bound to JBoss 5.1.0 GA and changes to the JBoss configuration should be as minimal as possible (in order to have minimal constraints to the setup of our customers)
All web services are developed contract-first which means that the original WSDL's are to be used by the providing container.
the plugin components should be as simple as possible concerning dependencies or technologies (in order to have minimal requirements to the skill of the plugin developers)
we use Spring 3 and Gemini Blueprint.
Finally, there are some ambiguities and unclear aspects and unfortunately I could not find reports on projects with similar requirements.
So, I would be eager to hear some suggestions or comments of the experts.
Maybe there are options I don't see, or maybe somebody has realised similar projects before and likes to share experiences.
Thanks a lot.
I am not an expert but another approach I have seen is to put the whole app server with an application into the OSGi container. It is an option in Sling launchpad http://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/architecture.html#launchpad

I'm trying to consume a web service within an applet.
For that objective i've tried Apache and Apache2, both with good results
but the problem is that the jar dependencies are far too fat for my application
(the jar for axis or axis2 are over 1.5MB, and the applet is less than 200KB)
So i will try consuming the web service with Apache CXF, hoping that the jars
are at least a bit smaller.
Using eclipse one creates an empty project and in the main classes implements
the applet and blah blah, but to create the web service one must use the web service
wizard.
I've used this wizard before, to consume the web service using Axis, but the moment i choose other options i get this message:
****The Apache CXF 2.x Web service runtime in Tomcat v7.0 Server does not support the client project****
What i´m missing?
I've already installed, CXF 2.x runtime, and the Tomcat 7 Server, and of course the Eclipse Web Tools.
This question How to generate web service client with Apache CXF in Eclipse Helios?
shows a very hard solution and it´s one year old!
is there any other way to consume webservices within an applet?
ksoap2 has no documentation on complex webservices, and ksoap2-android
neither
Sorry for a boring question, but any help is greatly apreciated
Apache CXF 2-x Web service runtime Tomcat Server not support client
The Apache CXF 2.x Web service runtime in Tomcat v7.0 Server does not support the client project
Answer: If you see above error during creating web service client in eclipse using Apache CXF means you are using java project to generate the client from WSDL. Latest version of JAX-WS supports Dynamic Web Module v2.5 and up. So create client using apache CXF first you need to create Dynamic web project.
Once dynamic project created then open web service client wizard to create client from WSDL and issue should be resolved.
I have just switched to Intellij Idea (11) and I'm having possibly simple problem for which I cannot find a solution within Intellij IDE. I have a web application which contains some classes marked with annotations from javax.ws.rs like eg. #Path("/members") etc and my web.xml file configured for handling REST calls.
The application is build with Maven, when I package the application either from command line or through the Intellij IDE and copy the .war file into tomcat webapps directory manually, all works fine, eg. I can access GET based services from the browser.
If I deploy the application through configured tomcat in Intellij IDE the application works but without the REST portion, so I'm not able to execute any rest based calls (all end up with 404 error). I cannot see anything in logs about deploying rest service classes like I do during manual deployment:
INFO: Adding scanned resource: com.softberries.klerk.rest.MemberResourceRESTService
so its definitively an IDE configuration option I've missed which prevents tomcat from scanning classes for this annotations.
The question is how should I configure my Tomcat within the IDE to work the same as started manually.
with Intellij you need to expose the classes as web services from Tools > WebServices.
Also check that in Setting > Web Services, the prefix path for web service is correct (by default is /services).
Here you have a nice tutorial about how to create webservices in intellij.
http://www.academia.edu/4526516/Creating_Web_Services_Applications_with_IntelliJ_IDEA
By the way... when you do a deploy from intellij, the application goes to:
C:\Users\userName.IntelliJIdea10\system\tomcat\NameDeploy"
This info appears in the console as: "Using CATALINA_BASE": .../path...
Hope this helps,
Cheers
I am a newbie to OSGi, started using felix. I am at present well versed with the concept of bundles, service etc. I have a requirement where I can embed Felix into Tomcat, I tried googling the same but was unable to find a relevant solution for my purpose.
What I exactly need is..
Till now I used to deploy my web app bundles into embedded http jetty service/PAX web.. installed inside Felix, but now I want to put Felix into Apache Tomcat/any other application server, so that whenever my tomcat starts up I need my felix instance up and running, and at the same time should be able to deploy/install/start my bundles through felix.
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.
You might want to consider the Apache Sling Launchpad subproject. This creates a WAR file which can be deployed into any servlet container and which launches the Apache Felix framework as the OSGi framework.
See also the Sling Launchpad and Embedding Sling for more information.
