Building and Running the helloservice Client Application with Basic Authentication Using Ant

To build and run the client application, simpleclient-basicauth, using the Ant tool, follow these steps. The secured service must be deployed onto the Application Server before you can successfully compile the client application. For more information on deploying the service, read Building and Deploying helloservice with Basic Authentication Using Ant.

1. Build the client by changing to the directory tut-install/examples/jaxws/simpleclient-basicauth/ and entering the following at the terminal window or command prompt:

   ant

   This command calls the default target, which builds and packages the application into a JAR file, simpleclient-basicauth.jar, located in the /dist directory.

2. Run the client by entering the following at the terminal window or command prompt:

   ant run

   A Login for User dialog displays.

3. Enter a user name and password that correspond to a user set up on the Application Server with a group of user. Click OK.

The client displays the following output:

[echo] running application client container.
[exec] Retrieving the port from the following service: 
helloservice.basicauth.endpoint.HelloService@c8769b
[exec] Invoking the sayHello operation on the port.
[exec] Hello, No Name.
