Get Started Using JAX-WS

• Start from Java

• Start from WSDL

• Program the JWS file

• Use JAXB for data binding

• Invoke a Web service

• Migrate from JAX-RPC

Advanced Features of JAX-WS

• Invoke Web services using asynchronous request-response

• Publish a Web service endpoint

• Use callbacks

• Optimize binary data transmission using MTOM/XOP

• Create a dynamic proxy class

• Use XML catalog

• Create SOAP message handlers

• Programming RESTful Web services

• Publish and find Web services using UDDI

Get Started Using JAX-RPC

• Start from Java

• Start from WSDL

• Program the JWS file

• Understanding data binding

• Invoke a Web service

• Migrate to JAX-WS

Advanced Features of JAX-RPC

• Invoke Web services using asynchronous request-response

• Use reliable Web services messaging

• Create conversational Web services

• Use callbacks

• Create buffered Web services

• Use JMS transport as connection protocol

• Create SOAP message handlers

• Publish and find Web services using UDDI

Code Examples

• Code examples using JAX-WS

• Code examples using JAX-RPC

  Web services code examples, if installed, are located in the WL_HOME/samples directory of your WebLogic Server installation and are available from the Start menu. See Chapter 5, "Sample Application and Code Examples.".

Security

• Message-level: digital signatures and encryption

• Transport-level: SSL

• Access control: user access and authentication

System Administration

• Overview of Administering WebLogic Web services

• Use the Administration Console

• Use the WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST)

• Use WebLogic Ant tasks

• Use the Java Management Extensions (JMX)

• Use the Java EE Deployment API
