Screencast #WS3: Reliable and Interoperable Web service using WSIT plug-in, NetBeans and GlassFish

In the third part of the screen cast series (#ws1, #ws2), I show how a reliable and interoperable Web service can be developed and invoked using NetBeans IDE and WSIT plug-in. This screencast also shows how WSIT plugin can be manually installed in NetBeans.

Enjoy it here.

Here is a preview of screen casts that are plannned in the next few weeks.

#WS4: Developing a Secure Web service using WSIT plug-in, NetBeans and GlassFish
#WS5: Developing a Transactional Web service using WSIT plug-in, NetBeans and GlassFish
#WS6: Invoking a .NET 3.0 endpoint using WSIT plug-in, NetBeans and GlassFish
#WS7: Developing a simple Web service using WSIT plug-in, NetBeans and Tomcat
#WS8: Based upon user requirement, Using GlassFish-bundled Derby database within a Web service built from JSPs.

Feel free to post suggestions on what would you like to see in terms of Web services development using NetBeans.

UPDATE: See why/when a module may be installed globally versus locally here.

Comments:

Another great screencast. Just a small comment: not every NetBeans module requires an IDE restart.

Posted by Alexis MP on February 24, 2007 at 05:16 AM PST #

Thanks Alexis for the correction. Do you know what is the criteria for restarting the IDE after plug-in installation ?

Posted by Arun on February 24, 2007 at 03:15 PM PST #

It's set by the developer in the module metadata. In some cases, you have no choice but to require restart.

Dear Arun, I have a requiremnet of invoking a wcf web service over SSL, using java client. Would you help me please by directing me to the required steps.

Posted by Khaled on March 05, 2007 at 01:50 AM PST #

Khaled, I'm planning a screencast on showing how to invoke a Java-based Web service over SSL in the next few days. Once Java-based Web service can be invoked, you can replace it with WCF-based endpoint and it should work. Please stay tuned!

Dear Arun, I just watched yoru 3 first screencasts. I'm amazed by your professionalism and the quality of the explanations. Impossible to make a mistake while executing the same tasks as you. Just a question, when do you plan to publish the next screencasts? I'm working on a research projects funded by the European commission (http://www.r4egov.eu) and it will be time to select the tools we want to use in order to implement the WS-* specifications. I would like to see your next screencasts before selecting a Java IDE. Thank and continue yoru great work! Abdelkrim

Posted by Abdelkrim Boujraf on May 03, 2007 at 11:32 AM PDT #

Abdelkrim, Thanks for the kind words. I do plan to work on the screencasts in next few weeks. Let me know if you'd like to see any specific ones before others. As a developer, there is no need to implement WS-* specs. We (at Sun) has already implemented these specs in WSIT (integrated part of GlassFish). You can use them in your applications with NetBeans and WSIT plug-in.

Posted by Arun Gupta on May 03, 2007 at 12:05 PM PDT #

Arun, it's impossible to choose between your proposals but... I'm more interested in WS-Policy, .NET 3.0 interactions and WS-Security in a first stage. Abdelkrim

Hello Arun.

I'va asked myself if its possible to change WSIT-configuration in that kind, to tell WSIT to find the wsit-PACKAGE.CLASS.xml not in the WEB-INF-folder, but in any other folder I want in the filesystem?

Regards

Christoph

Posted by Chritoph Karmowski on September 11, 2007 at 01:54 AM PDT #

Christoph, the location of wsit-PACKAGE.CLASS.xml is fixed. If you use NetBeans then all these details are hidden. Why would you like to have this config file in a different location ?

Posted by Arun Gupta on September 11, 2007 at 11:15 AM PDT #

Thanks Arun.

I have to integrate jaxws and wsit in a customized tomcat, which has a completely modified architecure. This is the reason, why I want to tell WSIT where to find this file. In my configuration this file isn't no longer in the webinf 2folder.

Regards

Christoph

Posted by Christoph Karmowski on September 11, 2007 at 11:25 AM PDT #

Christoph, this is how WSIT is looking up the server config file:

1. If we are running inside a web app, load the file from ServletContext. A Java EE compliant ServletContext will load from WEB-INF. If this is not the case for you, you will need to put the configuration file into the location where your ServletContext is loading application resources from.

2. If no ServletContext is available, load the file from a META-INF directory on the application classpath. This code will not be executed in a web app.

Dear Arun, I want to say that i like very much the way you presented the Screencasts. Keep feeding us :) . ..

Thanks Arun, very helpful and informative. Well done! Off topic question: What software/application did you use to record the session?

Posted by Ben on October 31, 2007 at 07:29 AM PDT #

I record my screencasts using Camtasia.
