Exposing an RFC enabled function as a Web Service in Minisap

Question

Hi all,
i'm trying to expose an RFC enabled function as a Web Service in my Minisap installation. Everything works fine, until i actually want to finish the Web Service wizard. It always quotes that the object can only be deployed in an sap paket. If i try to put it in the $TMP paket, by marking it as a local object, i always get the message that test objects can not be deployed in external pakets.
Any idea?
Furthermore the virtual interface with the name i selected in the Web Service wizard seems to exist, at least i can not try to deploy the Web Service again with the same name. Actually, i also can't find a place where i can delete the virtual interface. Any hint on that issue is also appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I wanted to write a web service adapter:
@WebService
public class MyWebService implements StreamSender {
     private StreamSender eventSender;
     @WebMethod
     public void echo(String msg) {
          eventSender.sendInsertEvent(new MyEvent(msg));
After deploying I've got NullPointerException, eventSender is null. This is because MyWebService instance is NOT on the spring context, since it was created by jetty via reflection.
So now I'm trying another approach. I want to inject an adapter from the spring context into the web service:
I wanted to write a web service adapter:
@WebService
public class MyWebService {
     private MyWSAdapter myAdapter;
     @Resource
     private WebServiceContext context;
     @WebMethod
     public void echo(String msg) {
          myAdapter = getMyAdapterFromSpringContext();
          myAdapter.sendInsertEvent(new MyEvent(msg));
     public MyWSAdapter getMyAdapterFromSpringContext() {
          ServletContext sc = (ServletContext) context.getMessageContext().get(MessageContext.SERVLET_CONTEXT);
          ApplicationContext springContext = WebApplicationContextUtils.getWebApplicationContext(sc);
          return (MyWSAdapter) springContext.getBean("myWSAdapter");
So far i'm getting java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError for org.springframework.web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils (org.springframework.spring-web_2.5.6.jar), and trying to figure out where is the jetty classpath.
