[Selva Prakash]

hai friends,

i want deploy my service in tomcat7 server with out using any tools and .aar files ( as like we are doing for jsp and servlet.. just copy files as per the deployment structure).

kindly tell me the deployment folder structure for webserivces? thanks in advance..........

friends, any suggestions.....

Axis2 uses .aar files to deploy web servies, period. Why are you trying to avoid them?

Probably not, as that uses the JAX-WS RI, not Axis2.

does axis2 contain its own ws implementation ?

[Ulf Dittmer]

Yes, Axis2 is not based on the JAX-WS RI.

i want to know the detailed folder structure .. thats it.. if we need to use .aar file.. what it should contains. and any other files should be placed in WEB-INF?

[Ulf Dittmer]

Check out the version.aar file of your Axis2 installation - it is the simplest possible case, just the class file(s) and a META-INF/services.xml file

.aar files can be created and inspected using the jar tool.
