Service client can't compile

Question

Hi
I am trying to develop client for the web component that I have deployed using the j2ee1.4 deploytool but Iam getting the compile time error .
http://localhost:8080/math-service/math?WSDL identifies the location of the WSDL file for MyFirstService that I have deployed.
My client directory structure is like as follows :
c:\sun\appserver\apps\static-stub\MathClient.java
package sstub;
import javax.xml.rpc.Stub;
public class MathClient {
private String endpointAddress;
public static void main(String argv[]) {
try {
// Invoke createProxy() to create a stub object
Stub stub = createProxy();
// Set the endpoint address the stub uses to access the service
stub._setProperty(javax.xml.rpc.Stub.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,
          "http://localhost:8080/math-service/math");
// Cast the stub to the service endpoint interface (MathFace)
MathFace math = (MathFace) stub;
// Invoke the add method
System.out.println(math.add(12, 24));
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
private static Stub createProxy() {
// Create a stub object
// Note that MyFirstService_Impl, generated by wscompile, is implementation-specific
return (Stub) (new MyFirstService_Impl().getMathFacePort());
and the configuration file config-wsdl.xml is in the same dir wher the MathClient.java is placed i.e. c:\sun\appserver\apps\static-stub\
config-wsdl.xml for client is as follows :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jax-rpc/ri/config">
<wsdl location="http://localhost:8080/math-service/math?WSDL"
packageName="sstub"/>
</configuration>
I have generate client stubs, using the following command :
c:\sun\appserver\apps\static-stub>wscompile -gen:client -d build -classpath build config-wsdl.xml
This create the sstub package in the sstub dir in static-stub\build\
and I am copileing the client using :
C:\sun\APPSER~1\apps\static-stub> javac -classpath build -d build MathClient.java
but I am geeting the arror as
as follows:
MathClient.java:4: package javax.xml.rpc does not exist

bad class file: build\sstub\MathFace.class
class file has wrong version 49.0, should be 48.0
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
MathFace math = (MathFace) stub;

Can u help me out ?

You need to make sure the jax-rpc jar files are in your classpath when you invoke javac.
