You can develop simple web services in JDeveloper that you can test using JDeveloper's embedded OC4J server. However to develop more complex web services, and to deploy web services, you will need the appropriate connections.
To deploy a J2EE web service to Oracle Application Server or Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE (OC4J), you need an application server connection. For more information, see the Connecting to an Application Server.
To create a PL/SQL web service, you must have a connection to the database and schema that contains the package you are going to base your web service on. For more information, see Configuring Database Connections.
If you are creating a SOAP web service, you must have a connection to the SOAP server on which you are going to deploy your service. For more information, see Configuring SOAP Server Connections.
If you are going to search for a web service in a UDDI Registry, you must have a connection to that registry. For more information, see Configuring UDDI Registry Connections.
