There is a new, simple example provided in the 1.0 M1 release. It's is in the spring-ws-samples/echo directory.

can i use java annotation in spring ws ?

It depends on which annotations you mean , but I suppose you mean JSR 181 annotations like @WebService, @WebMethod, etc. Also known as the Web service magic pixie dust.

We don't support those, because they enforce a RPC (Remote-Procedure-Call) development style, while Spring-WS focusses on document-driven web services. During a recent interview, Ted Neward explained his view on these annotations, and I think he is right. That said, we might support other annotations in the future. I honestly haven't thought about that yet. If you have any ideas, feel free to post them!

If you are looking for a SOAP stack that supports JSR 181, may I suggest using XFire, which does support them.
