Creating and Configuring Web Services and Web
Service Clients
Use
SAP NetWeaver application server Java enables you to provide, consume, publish/discover and configure Web services.
More information about Web services: Web Services.
Procedure
● Providing Web services
You can create a Java EE 5 Web service starting from an available implementation (inside out approach), or from a WSDL document (outside in approach). More information: Providing Web Services.
Optionally, you can apply basic configuration settings to the Web service by using annotation provided by SAP. More information: Configuring Web Services at Design Time.
● Consuming Web services
When you have created your Web service, you have to create a Web service client for it. More information: Consuming Web Services.
● Configuring Web services and Web service clients.
After you deploy the Web service and the Web service client, you have to configure them at runtime in the SAP NetWeaver Administrator by applying the specific runtime configuration settings with which you want to provide or consume a Web service. More information: Configuring Web Services and Web Service Clients in the SAP NetWeaver Administrator.
● Publishing Web services to the Services Registry
To facilitate the discovery of your Web services, you can publish them to the Services Registry.
