Creating J2EE Web Services

This topic describes how to create a web service for deployment to OC4J from:

a simple Java class
an EJB
an ADF Business Components (formerly BC4J) session bean wrapped as an EJB

If you have not already done so, set an appropriate context root for your web service.

To create the web service:

In the navigator, select the project containing the Java class or EJB from which you want to create a web service.
Choose File | New to open the New Gallery.
In the Categories list, expand Business Tier and select Web Services.
In the Items list, double-click Java Web Service to launch the Create Web Service wizard.
For detailed help about completing the wizard, press F1 or click Help from within the wizard.

To see the files generated by JDeveloper, see Generated Web Services Files.

Now that you have generated the deployment information for your J2EE web service, the final step is to deploy the files to OC4J. This is the same as deploying any other J2EE Web Application. For more information, see Deploying J2EE Web Services to OC4J.
