将外部Web服务存储在web.xml中

Question

if I want to store a external web service url in the web.xml file, how I must proceed?, in this way?:

<service-ref>
<service-ref-name>PublicApiService</service-ref-name>
 <service-interface>
</service-interface>
<wsdl-file>
    http://nxxxx/example/Services/PublicApiService.wsdl
</wsdl-file>

What I should put on the service-interface if the web service is external?. I use eclipse

Thanks so much

You have to generate the client stubs of the service. You can use ws-import for generating the client stubs:

wsimport -p your.package.name -s gen -d bin http://nxxxx/example/Services/PublicApiService.wsdl

This will generate the needed Java source files. Execute it in your project root dir.

After that you have to change your web.xml file:

<service-ref>
    <service-ref-name>PublicApiService</service-ref-name>
    <service-interface>
        your.package.name.PublicApiService
    </service-interface>
    <wsdl-file>
        http://nxxxx/example/Services/PublicApiService.wsdl
    </wsdl-file>
</service-ref>
