Configuring the JBoss Application Server 4.x/5.x Agent for Apache CXF

The JBoss Application Server 4.x/5.x agent is supported with JBoss Application Server 5.x and Apache CXF 2.2.5. However, because Apache CXF uses JAXB 2.x, you must first make the configuration changes described in this section.

For information about Apache CXF, see http://cxf.apache.org/.

To Configure the JBoss Application Server 4.x/5.x Agent for Apache CXF

1. After you download and unzip the JBoss Application Server 4.x/5.x agent distribution file, locate the openssoclientsdk.jar file in the following directory:

   Agent-Home/j2ee_agents/jboss_v42_agent/lib

   Agent-Home is where you unzipped the agent distribution file.

2. Extract the files from openssoclientsdk.jar. For example:

   cd /agents/j2ee_agents/jboss_v42_agent/lib
   jar xvf openssoclientsdk.jar

3. In each jaxb.properties file, set the javax.xml.bind.context.factory property to the v2 ContextFactory class:

   Old value: javax.xml.bind.context.factory=com.sun.xml.bind.ContextFactory_1_0_1

   New value: javax.xml.bind.context.factory=com.sun.xml.bind.v2.ContextFactory

   Note: The openssoclientsdk.jar contains a number of different jaxb.properties files in various subdirectories. You must edit each of these files, so consider writing a script to edit the files.

4. Generate a revised openssoclientsdk.jar file. For example:

   jar uvf openssoclientsdk.jar *
