When will you be offfering web services support in MyEclipse? Is it included in latest beta release? I am looking for WSDL generation for both server and client side and the ability to deploy to Axis 1.1?
If this is not available in the latest Beta release, what are my options for web services support that will be compatible with the MyEclipse plugin.
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Yes, I can add a +1 to the enhancement we have in our system for you. Although I believe that web services is kind of implicitly on our roadmap anyway… but it can’t hurt right?
There is quite a bit of web service support is the IBM WTP contribution, but I would encourage you guys to have a look at how Visual Studio.NET (dare I say it?) handles web services. This is all you have to do to connect your app to a web service, and its a million times easier than anything in the java world:
1. Right click on references and click add Web Reference…
2. Type in URL to the WSDL
3. Wait a second or two as classes are generatedand thats it, you can then code against very nice generated proxy classes. This leaves Sun’s web service pack for dead. It literally takes less than 30 seconds, and when I want to quickly test a java web service, I always use VS.NET because it is a shit load easier.
Similarly to create a web service all you have to do is create a web project, then add a .asmx file, code the methods and annotate them as [WebMethod] and they are magically exposed as a web service, and proxies and WSDLs are all magically generated behind the scenes.
This is the kind of level that java IDEs must get to before they can compete with VS.NET
Very interesting input, I will add it to the issue that is filed. Thank you for telling us about it!
I’ve been working with Visual Studio 2003, and can confirm that the websevice support IS goooood ! A XDoclet extension you can add to a stateless bean should do the job !(?) The object is already very well documented in the ebj xml document. Based on that I can’t understand that a clever programmer (at myeclipse ?) can do som magic here ? Is there anyone who know where I can find an UPDATED example(s) on the web, where i can make my stateless beans talk to .NET? Im trying using jboss-4.0.0RC1 with Axis integration ? The Axis documentation sucks ! I may not be so clever, but why sould I know so much about SOAP ? I only need to expose som ejb beans with a webservice interface. If MyEclipse make up something fast and easy here, you realy have a killing application ! Lets beat Visual Studio on the business layer ! I haven’t seen any real framework in the .net solution that beats J2EE 1.4 standard yet !
Keep up the good work !
