JAX WS Hello World Example

In this tutorial we want to run a JAX-WS example (Endpoint + Client) for beginner of JAX-WS web service give the few minutes to this tutorial and happy learning ; ) .
Prerequisites:

  1. JDK 1.6
  2. Eclipse (or STS) IDE

Developing WebService End Point

1) Open Eclipse (or STS), and create a java project “JAXWSServerHello“.

JAX WS Hello World Example

2) Create WSServiceHello Endpoint Interface:

JAX WS Hello World

WSServiceHello .java

package com.dineshonjava.ws;

import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebService;

/**
 * @author Dinesh Rajput
 *
 */
@WebService
public interface WSServiceHello {
 
 @WebMethod String sayHello(String name);
 
}

3) Create WSServiceHello Endpoint Implementation class:
WSServiceHello .java

package com.dineshonjava.ws;

import javax.jws.WebService;

/**
 * @author Dinesh Rajput
 *
 */
@WebService(endpointInterface="com.dineshonjava.ws.WSServiceHello")
public class WSServiceHelloImpl implements WSServiceHello {

 @Override
 public String sayHello(String name) {
  return  "Hello, Welcome to JAX-WS World and keep learning!! " + name;
 }

}

4) Create Endpoint Publisher class:
WSHelloPublisher.java

package com.dineshonjava.publisher;

import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint;

import com.dineshonjava.ws.WSServiceHelloImpl;

/**
 * @author Dinesh Rajput
 *
 */
public class WSHelloPublisher {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
  Endpoint.publish("http://localhost:8181/WS/WSServiceHello"
    ,new WSServiceHelloImpl());
 }

}

5) Run above program.Your web service is published.You can check your service wsdl at http://localhost:8181/WS/WSServiceHello?wsdl
WSServiceHello.wsdl

<port name="WSServiceHelloImplPort" binding="tns:WSServiceHelloImplPortBinding">
<soap:address location="http://localhost:8181/WS/WSServiceHello"/>
</port>
</service>
</definitions>

Developing WebService Client :
1) Open eclipse(or STS) and create a new java project “WSHelloClient”

JAX WS Hello Example

2) As you know we need to generate the client stubs… but how?
open your command line, and enter the wsimport command:

CD %CLIENT_PROJECT_HOME%src
wsimport -keep http://localhost:8181/WS/WSServiceHello?wsdl
JAX WS Example

you will find java classes generated and compiled under src->com->dineshonjava->ws

JAX WS


3) Lets create client class now.
create WSHelloClient.java under src->com.dineshonjava.client

package com.dineshonjava.client;

import com.dineshonjava.ws.WSServiceHello;
import com.dineshonjava.ws.WSServiceHelloImplService;

/**
 * @author Dinesh Rajput
 *
 */
public class WSHelloClient {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
  WSServiceHelloImplService service = new WSServiceHelloImplService();
  WSServiceHello serviceHello = service.getWSServiceHelloImplPort();
  System.out.println("***************Call Started*******************");
  System.out.println(serviceHello.sayHello("Dinesh"));
  System.out.println("***************Call Ended*********************");
 }

}

4) Run above program and you will get following output.

JAX

Congratulation, you have successfully created web service endpoint and client. Now in next post, we will deploy it on Tomcat.
