You can develop a Web service from an enterprise bean.
This task is one of four ways that you can develop a Web service. You can also develop a Web service from a Java bean, develop a Web service with an existing Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file using a Java bean, or develop a Web service with an existing WSDL file using an enterprise bean. In this task, you need develop a new WSDL file.
Enabling the enterprise bean for Web services includes developing the service endpoint interface, locating or developing a WSDL file that is the engine of the Web service, generating and configuring the deployment descriptors, completing the enterprise beans implementation, assembling all the artifacts required for the Web service, enabling the modules and deploying the application into the WebSphere Application Server environment.
To use an enterprise bean as the basis for a Web service implementation, follow these requirements:
These requirements are documented in the JAX-RPC specification available through Web services: Resources for learning.
Create the artifacts that enable the enterprise bean to be a Web service and assemble the artifacts into the enterprise application.
