Exposing Oracle CEP as WebService

Question

Can you explain a step by step process to expose an Oracle CEP application through web services?
I was using the steps mentioned into the following link -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e14301/webservconfig.htm - Step 14.3
I have followed the steps but while deploying the Oracle CEP server was throwing error stating - 'bea-jaxws.xml' is not found.
If you know some way to make 'bea-jaxws.xml' recognizable by the server please let me know.

Answer 1

You need to
1) configure glashfish webservice at server's config.xml:
<glassfish-ws>
<name>JAXWS</name>
<http-service-name>JettyServer</http-service-name>
</glassfish-ws>
2) configure a bea-jaxws.xml at META-INF
<endpoints>
<endpoint>
<name>EchoService</name>
<implementation-class>
sample.echoservice.EchoService
</implementation-class>
<url-pattern>/echo</url-pattern>
<wsdl-location>
/META-INF/wsdl/echoservice.wsdl
</wsdl-location>
<service-name>
{http://example.cep.oracle.com}EchoService
</service-name>
<port-name>
{http://example.cep.oracle.com}EchoPort
</port-name>
</endpoint>
</endpoints>
3) state the webservice configuration location at META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
BEA-JAXWS-Descriptor: META-INF/bea-jaxws.xml
4) implement the webservice like below:
import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebResult;
import javax.jws.WebParam;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding;
@WebService(name="SimplePortType", serviceName="EchoService",
portName="EchoPort",
targetNamespace="http://example.cep.oracle.com")
@SOAPBinding(style=SOAPBinding.Style.DOCUMENT,
use=SOAPBinding.Use.LITERAL,
parameterStyle=SOAPBinding.ParameterStyle.BARE)
public class EchoService{
@WebMethod()
@WebResult(name="echoWorldResponse", targetNamespace="http://example.cep.oracle.com", partName="parameters")
public String echoWorld(String message) {
System.out.println("echo:" + message);
return "echo:" + message;
Note that only SOAPBinding.ParameterStyle.BARE is supported in OCEP for now.
Let me know if you still have question.
