I have an application using Apache CXF with a lots of SOAP services implemented. So, i would like to use the "service registry" concept and then, i´d hear about UDDI, but i dont know how to implemented that.
Is Apache CXF already composed by an API to deploy UDDI engine or should i fix another library to do that?
Take a look at JUDDI:
http://juddi.apache.org/
which is a UDDI service. The latest version is written to JAX-WS and is tested by default with CXF.
To add, jUDDI has a neat way to automate the registration of web services using annotations and a servlet startup listener.

We use Apache CXF in our application with jax-rs to build REST Api. As of now, there is no documentation about the various endpoints available and is deployed on Tomcat 8.5 server.
I have done some R&D on how to find a solution. I understand that Swagger can be used.
But, I did not find enough documentation to user swagger with Apache CXF.
I understand that these type of questions are prohibited in the site. At the same time, I am not sure which chat room to use for this purpose.
Any information on this would help me a lot.
Depending on the CXF version that you are using, I would suggest to use OpenApiFeature (OpenAPI is newer than Swagger) as described here: http://cxf.apache.org/docs/openapifeature.html
You can also find multiple sample projects with Swagger or OpenAPI here: https://github.com/apache/cxf/tree/master/distribution/src/main/release/samples/jax_rs
I am considering to have a SOAP web service written using Apache Axis2. I can either use the Axis server or pack it as a .war and deploy it to a servlet container. My REST service is running on http-kit. Is it possible to to use http-kit with SOAP or does it support SOAP? Or should I need a separate servlet container like tomcat or Axis2? Thanks.
Update: Apache CXF instead of Axis2. I think I cannot use http-kit.
If I understand you correctly, you want to expose a SOAP-service.
I have a sample project which does that:
https://github.com/slipset/soap-box
It uses javax.ws.rs-api and runs as an uber-jar.
I want to ask about JBoss Middleware for ISO8583.
So, I kinda new on ISO8583, from what I know is we could use JPOS framework for this one. Then my supervisor ask me to research about JBoss Middleware that could be used to develop middleware application for send, receive, and parse ISO8583 message.
I have read on JBoss Middleware website, unfortunately I'm still not sure which JBoss technology should I use to develop such application.
Here is my questions:
1. In order develop enterprise application that capable to send, receive, and parse ISO8583, should I combine JPOS with JBoss Middleware? or JBoss Middleware has a complete capability to handle it?
2. Does anyone has/know good material/tutorial for me to learn about building ISO8583 middleware with JBoss technology?
Thank you.
JBoss Middleware is a family of products and its components alone do not provide ISO8583 capabilities out of the box.
jPOS is one of the most popular Java frameworks that provide complete capabilities to handle sending and receiving ISO8583 messages. There are other alternatives such as j8583 and IsoTypes.
You can combine any of these ISO8583 libraries together with JBoss Fuse (part of the JBoss Middleware family) to build a solution capable of sending, receiving and parsing ISO8583 messages.
I'm not aware of a definitive guide about building such solutions. If you need to use JBoss Middleware, you can follow this route:
Look into IsoTypes, which provides an ISO8583 marshalling library for Apache Camel (used by JBoss Fuse).
Start by building a Camel route that implements the IsoType library functions. Look into this sample project.
Please, be aware that building a production ready ISO8583 server and/or client from open source solutions require significant work in terms of scalability, information security and compatibility with multiple financial hosts and switches.
My answer only refers to the first basic steps to understand your problem/solution fit a bit better.
As a side note, you may be interested in looking at jreactive-8583, an ISO8583 connector that handles message parsing and the network layer out of the box. You may build your application using this and deploy it into JBoss Application Server (part of the JBoss Middleware family too). I use it in production.
You can take advantage of JPos Q2 and create a servlet deployable to JBoss container.
In the service init method you can do this:
Q2 q2 = new Q2();
q2.start();
We were working on creating a RESTful service. We have thought of using frameworks like jersey or cxf. But apparently we found that just using the javax.ws.rs-api-2.0.jar and the related annotations, we can get the service working.
Question is:
How does it work? Is it dependent on the application servers?
What if we application server does not support or have the implementation of the API?
If it is dependent on application servers, can I find out the library which the server is using especially tomcat?
EDIT 1
This question is invalid. javax.ws.rs-api-2.0.jar is just an API. Using this jar does not suffice. It will not give compilation errors.
But at run-time, you need providers which will implement the rs-api. And thus we need the frameworks like jersey or cxf.
In our application, these jars were added to the war during ant-build from external location and that is why it confused us.
I am closing this question.
Is it possible to create SOAP web services (not client) over HTTP in C or C++, that respects the WSDL contract, using these Frameworks/libraries :
Apache CXF
Axis2/c
gSOAP
??
Thanks in advance :)
Apache CXF - No. It's written on Java and you can't write Web Services on C using CXF (JNI is not a good idea in this case).
Axis2/C - Yes! It's a Web service framework written on C. It's one of most powerful Web services frameworks for C. You can write Web services from scratch or generate it from WSDL. But it will be plain C and you may need to write extra code to start it working. To provide more convenient interface to Web services engine you may want to use some wrapper like WSO2 or Staff. For details please see my answer here.
gSoap - yes. It's not trivial but possible.
