Exposing WebService in Weblogic(8.1 SP3)

[anan]

Hi,
I am converting an legacy application which has webservice functionality.

One of the webservice class uses spring managed beans.

My question is:How will get my spring managed beans in the webservice POJO.

I am not using AXIS.Webservice is based on Weblogic(8.1 SP3) RPC style.

Thx

Are you deploying a war? Maybe you should use the WebApplicationContextUtils to get the app context and do getBean() to get the references.

Yes i am deploying it as war file.How do i get Webapplication context utils in POJO .

My webservice class is not dependent on Http servlet API.

I am thinking about an another options.

I can create a Factory which is going to aware of bean factory.Then in my webservice i can call beanfactory to get the spring managed beans.

Drawback is :My service object is aware of factory ..which is spring aware.

I don't know whether how people or Handling the webservice in weblogic(no AXIS) when their service is dependent on spring managed beans.

I'm not sure, but BEA seems to be aggresively supporting Spring so maybe check the docs on their site. They also have a Spring-based version of that MedRec app, maybe some samples in there can help.

Hi,
I looked into the application.It has an example of consuming webservice (JAXRPCproxyfactorybean) not for exposing webservice.

I know spring has servletendpoint support .I don't know how to these class to work with weblogic webservice servlet.

Hey Anan. Did you take a look at the medrecEar of the BEA MedRec-Spring example applicaiton? This EAR exposes WLS WSs. The Physician applicaiton consumes them.

Hi cwall,
I tought it had only the consuming part not the exposing part.

I was able to mange with factory with application conext aware.
