Thanks for the great documentation so far. It didn’t take me any time to get my very own HelloWorld-like web service written/deployed.

Now that I’ve generated the code from my javabean, how do I go about extending the functionality (adding new methods / adding parameters to existing methods). Can myEclipse help me with this task? I’m trying to get an idea of how to go about maintenance of a web service. Do I ever re-generate? Is there any automated way of keeping your service/messages/wsdl in sync after generation?

An example of any of this would be great at the end of the current “MyEclipse Code-First Web Services Quickstart” tutorial.

May all your bars be green,

David,
I’ve asked someone from the WS team to follow up with you.

David,

I’m glad you like the tooling so far. Right now, we do not have any fine grained methods which work on existing WS classes or an existing WSDL file.

If you developed your webservice “Bottom Up”, i.e. code first, you do need to add more operations manually. XFire will generate an appropriate WSDL file for you.

If you developed “Top Down”, using a WSDL file, then you will need to regenerate your webservice when you upgrade the WSDL file. Note that the existing files are completely regenerated (you will be asked/warned).

Our WS tooling is constantly being upgraded and we appreciate your input.

Hope this helps,
