Calling Apache Axis Web Services

Once you've deployed your Web service, you'll use Java files to call it from your application. Axis provides a method to generate Java client source code, WSDL2JAVA.

To access an Apache Axis Web service
  1. From a command line run: 
    java -cp %classpath%; 
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\axis.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\log4jcore.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\xerces.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\jaxrpc.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\saaj.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\
    Continued linecommons-logging.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\
    Continued linecommons-discovery.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\wsdl4j.jar;
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib\
    Continued linett-bytecode.jar;

    org.apache.axis.wsdl.WSDL2Java
    http://server_name:Tomcat_port/axis/services/task_name?wsdl

  2. The resulting Java files can be used to call the Axis Web service from your application.
