在Java中部署Web服务

Question

I have a java web service. The actual operations of it are not important. But what is important is the return value. It is returning a class I created called GetReturnCapsule .

    /**
     * Web service operation
     */
    @WebMethod(operationName = "get")
    public GetReturnCapsule get(@WebParam(name = "company")
    final String company, @WebParam(name = "timeStamp")
    final long timeStamp, @WebParam(name = "hash")
    final int hash)
    {
       ...stuff
    }

Here is the return capsule code. Its pretty much just a wrapper for some data.

public class GetReturnCapsule
{
    long timeStamp;
    List ips;
    int hash;

    public GetReturnCapsule(long timeStamp,Listips,int hash)
    {
        this.timeStamp = timeStamp;
        this.ips = ips;
        this.hash = hash;
    }

    public long getTimeStamp()
    {
        return timeStamp;
    }

    public int getHash()
    {
        return hash;
    }

    public List getIPs()
    {
        return ips;
    }

}

The webservice compiles correctly. However, when I try to deploy it, it get the following error from Glashfish.

SEVERE: Class [ com/compunetix/vsd/stix/server/webservices/GetReturnCapsule ] not found. Error while loading [ class com.compunetix.vsd.stix.server.webservices.GetIp ]

My main question is, can is it possible to actually return a custom class using java web services. My second question is, any idea on how I can fix this based off of these error messages?

Answer 1

Yes you can return custom classes with java web services. As for your second question, it looks like you are missing a dependency in your ear. Check out this post .
