In Manual Web Service Configuration In From Java Case you saw how to manually configure Java web service endpoint. This entry describes how to use external policies for endpoint configuration instead of including policy assertions directly into WSIT config file. The scenario enables you to store and maintain all your policies at one central place... Preparation To be able to reproduce following steps you will need an installation of glassfish v2. (I was using gf v2 b46)I...

It was a big surprise for me, but yes: if you want to e.g. connect a video projector to your Vista machine, you have to restart the machine. For a long time I thought it was only a Solaris issue. With some laptops you just need to restart your X server session (i.e. logout/login). Recently I have heard from one of my colleague, who was giving a presentation (on the last Wednesday) he was not able to use the projector at all (he unfortunatelydid not try to restart his...

As Fabian mentioned in his recent blog entry (http://blogs.sun.com/ritzmann), attaching policy assertions to webservices created from wsdl could be simply done by inserting the assertions directly into appropriate wsdl document. Today I will show how to attach them in from Java case Preparation All you will need is JDK (http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp) and Java EE Application Server with integrated WSIT. What follows was tested with jdk 5.0 update 10 (http://java...

JSR-88 introduces unified J2EE API for deployment. You will see how to use it for deploying/undeploying web applications and it will be demonstrated using glassfish Without JSR-88 You have several options how to deploy a web application onto glassfish. CLI interface ($GLASSFISH_HOME/bin/asadmin command) Admin Console (http://localhost:4848/) Autodeployment (place the war directly into filesystem: $GLASSFISH_HOME/domains/domain1/autodeploy) So for e.g. using CLI interface you can...

Recently I got an e-mail containing following log message id: SEVERE: WSP001002: Message was generated by our class in com.sun.xml.ws.policy.jaxws package. In the first place I was wondering where in the code the message had been logged: $ grep -n WSP001002 wsit/rt/src/\*\*/\*.java It returned empty result, even if I was sure such an id was used in the code. And the reason? In policy code we used a convention that log messages starting with WSP<id number> were generated with...

The second time you have to answer the same question is the right time to consider writing the answer down somewhere When I was trying to install Solaris Nevada (http://www.opensolaris.org/) into my Toshiba Tecra M3 laptop for the first time (about 10 months ago), I experienced strange error messages and was not able to proceed. Until I changed my CMOS settings. Then one of my colleagues experienced the same issue and recently one another asked me for a hint. So I decided to...

Glassfish (http://glassfish.dev.java.net) offers you pretty comfortable way how to control logging. You can find it in it's admin console and Fabian already described what to do to get some fancy logs out of e.g. WS-Policy WSIT framework there in his blog). However, there is yet another way to configure logging levels for non-glassfish environment. Simply edit your $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/logging.properties file. And if you do not mind you will be overwhelmed with bunch of different...

This week I have spent some time on measuring performance of our wspolicy implementation and it's impact on overall performance of WSIT (http://wsit.dev.java.net/). Nowadays -- after feature freeze -- we want to spend some cycles on performance improvements. In this blog you can find some initial figures before performance optimization. First attempt For the initial measurement I created two services. Exactly same services just with one difference.One configured using...

Despite the fact that many developers keep saying (especially when looking for a new job ;-) they do not mind learning new technologies and APIs, when it comes to reality a lot of them mind. Last time I wrote aboutWSIT. The implementation brings new quality features to web services technology and the key to this is having policies attached to particular services. You can read about the details in Marek's blog. The good news is, that adoption of WSIT does not mean switching to...
