You deploy a web service endpoint to the Enterprise Server just as you would any servlet, stateless session bean (SLSB), or application.
Note - For complex services with dependent classes, user specified WSDL files, or other advanced features, autodeployment of an annotated file is not sufficient.
The Sun-specific deployment descriptor files sun-web.xml and sun-ejb-jar.xml provide optional web service
enhancements in the webservice-endpoint and webservice-description elements, including a debugging-enabled subelement that enables the
creation of a test page. The test page feature is enabled by default
and described in The Web Service URI, WSDL File, and Test Page.
For more information about deployment, autodeployment, and deployment descriptors, see the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 Application Deployment Guide. For
more information about the asadmin deploy command, see the
Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 Reference Manual.
