Web services 10.1.2 & 10.1.3 dev preview

Question

Hi,
I'm trying to generate a simple web service using both the 10.1.2 and 10.1.3 versions of JDev.
I create a simple class with one method to add two integers toegther and return the result. Everything generates with no errors reported but when I try to run the test client I get this error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Files\jDeveloper\10_1_2\jdev\bin
I get the exact same error for both versions. There doesn't seem to be a huge amount of documentation for eith er version so if I am missing a step in the process it not easy to find what I'm doing wrong.
Any help on this would be greatlt appreciated.
Thanks,
Brad.

Sunil,
I'm refering to JDev adding in another "add" method which wasn't there before.
If I use the following test class:
package brad;
public class Test {
public Test() {
public int add(int a, int b){
return a + b;
public String echo(String msg){
return msg;
after I've generated the web service and the web service stub to test it I get a compile error. This is because the test class then looks like this:
package brad;
*@oracle.ws.WebService name = "TestService", serviceName = "TestService", description = "", targetNamespace = "http://brad/Test.wsdl", schemaTargetNamespace = "http://brad/Test/types", endpointInterface = "brad.MyWebService1SEI"
*@oracle.ws.SOAPBinding style = "DOCUMENT", use = "LITERAL", documentWrapped = "false", bindingName = "MyWebService1SoapHttp", portName = "MyWebService1Port"
public class Test {
public Test() {
*@oracle.ws.ParamPart position = "0", partName = "a", mode = "IN", soapHeader = "false"
*@oracle.ws.ParamPart position = "1", partName = "b", mode = "IN", soapHeader = "true"
public int add(int a, int b){
return a + b;
*@oracle.ws.WebMethod operationName = "echo", description = "", documentWrapped = "false", inputMessage = "MyWebService1SEI_echo", outputMessage = "MyWebService1SEI_echoResponse", responsePart = "result"
*@oracle.ws.ParamPart position = "0", partName = "msg", mode = "IN", soapHeader = "false"
public String echo(String msg){
return msg;
* @oracle.ws.WebMethod
public int add(int parameters) {
As you can see it has added another "add" method which takes a single int parameter and doesn't return anything, so it won't compile. Just removing or giving this new method a return statement doesn't help as the original add(int, int) method is not available in the stub client. There is an add method available, but its the new one JDev has added itself.
