WSIT Example Using
a Web Container Without NetBeans

This chapter describes how to use the two supported web containers--GlassFish version 2 or Apache Tomcat 5.5--to create, build, and deploy a web service and a client that use the Web Services Interoperability Technologies (WSIT). This chapter also includes examples of the files you must create and the build directories.

To run the examples described in this chapter, download the WSIT samples kits, wsit-enabled-fromjava.zip and wsit-enabled-fromwsdl.zip, from the following location:

https://wsit.dev.java.net/source/browse/wsit/wsit/docs/howto/

You could also use NetBeans IDE to create and deploy WSIT web services and clients. The IDE provides a graphical user interface (GUI) and does many of the manual steps described in this chapter for you, thus reducing the amount of coding and processing required. For an example that creates, builds, and deploys a web service and a web service client using NetBeans IDE, see Chapter 2.
