Java 7 JAX-WS Web Services

Java 7 JAX-WS Web Services starts off with downloading and installing the Oracle GlassFish Server and NetBeans IDE. Although in this book we will be using GlassFish Server 3.1.1 and NetBeans IDE 7.0.1, later versions of GlassFish and NetBeans are also compatible. We then create a JAX-WS web service with Java 7. We shall also discuss the option in the tool or the Ant task which is new used to generate JAX-WS portable artifacts from a service WSDL. Subsequently, we use the web service artifacts to invoke the web service from a web service client.
What This Book Covers

In Chapter 1, Setting the Environment, we set the environment for this book including installing the required software such as NetBeans IDE and the Oracle GlassFish Server. In Chapter 2, Developing a JAX-WS Web Service, we discuss how the new option in the tool/Ant task in Java 7 is used for developing a JAXWS web service. We use NetBeans IDE 7 and the Oracle GlassFish Server, which support Java 7.
Setting the Environment

For developing a JAX-WS web service with Java 7, we shall be using NetBeans IDE 7 and Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1.1, both of which support Java 7. In this chapter we shall install the software required for this book. The Windows version of the software (.exe application) is used in this book. If using another OS, install the corresponding version of the software if available.
Installing the Oracle GlassFish Server

Download the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.1.1 or the latest version Open Source Edition .exe le from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javaee/downloads/ ogs-3-1-1-downloads-439803.html. Double-click on the .exe le to start the installation. The installation gets initialized, as shown in the following screenshot:
In the Introduction window, click on Next. In the Installation Type window, select Typical Installation. Ports 4848 and 8080 must be available. For example, if the Oracle database XE is installed and running, the database needs to be stopped. Click on Next:
In the Install Directory window, specify an Installation Directory (C:/glasssh3) and click on Next. The directory does not need to be created prior to specifying the Installation Directory:

If GlassFish Server updates need to be installed, select the Install Update Tool checkbox. Select the Enable Update Tool to enable the update tool. As we won't be using the Update Tool for the sample application in the book, in Update Tool deselect Install Update Tool and click on Next. In the Ready To Install window, click on Install to install and congure the Oracle GlassFish Server Open Source Edition:
The installation of GlassFish Server 3.1.1 starts and the Progress bar indicates the percentage installed:

The Cong Results window shows whether the required conguration domain (domain1) is created or not. If the domain creation fails with the error: "The system cannot nd the path specied", running the installer with the j JAVA_HOME option xes this issue.
The start-domain command gets invoked:
