Trying to use wsdl2java generated classes

[sony kapoor]

Hello,

I am new to java, so please bear with me. I am an asp.net programmer though. I used axis2's wsdl2java program to generate the wsdl for my webservice. This generated a single file in the folder:

src/net/mycompany/www/services/SessionIntegrationStub.java

I compiled this class using javac and it produced several .class files in the same folder.

Then I created a new .java file again in the same folder to consume the webservice. My code looks like this:

package net.mycompany.www.services;
...
SessionIntegrationStub stub = new SessionIntegrationStub();
System.out.println(stub.getSessionIntegration("test"));

Now when I try to compile this class, then javac is not able to find the SessionIntegrationStub class, although I can see the SessionIntegrationStub.class file in the same folder. Is there anything I am missing?

Thanks,

Hi!
If it is not an absolute requirement to use Axis, you can save yourself a lot of trouble by using the NetBeans IDE to develop a Java web service and/or a Java web service clients.
I can recommend the following tutorials:
Developing Java web services: http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/jax-ws.html
Developing Java web service clients: http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/client.html
There is even a tutorial showing how to do Java-first web service development for deployment on Axis with NetBeans: http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/gs-axis.html
Best wishes!

What about Groovy? Can I use that too? Is it easy to use?

Yes, you can use Groovy - take a look at the following web page:
http://groovy.codehaus.org/GroovyWS
I leave it up to you to determine if it is easy or not.

I downloaded netbeans and I am trying to use the webservices getCheckSoap function as described here: http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/client.html
However this function doesnt exist. Is this function deprecated?

That is a function in the web service that they are developing a client to. Your web service probably have other functions.
I recommend using drag-and-drop (drag a web service operation into the code window), as they also mention in the tutorial, to invoke operations of the web service.
Best wishes!
