Viewing Web Service Artifacts 

Use

When you create Web services, a system process that runs in the background collects information about the exposed implementation beans and service endpoint interfaces (SEI). The system displays the collected information in a JAX-WS Web Services node available in the Project Explorer view of the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio. More information about service endpoint interfaces: Service Endpoint Interface.

The Project Explorer view is available only in some perspectives in the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio. To open the Project Explorerview in a perspective, from the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio toolbar, choose Window → Show View → Other → General → Project Explorer → OK

The JAX-WS Web Services node is available only in Enterprise Java Bean Projects 3.0 and Dynamic Web Projects 2.5. The node offers a central access point to the Web service’s artifacts in a project. It displays all implementation beans and Java interfaces that have the standard Web service’s annotations and attributes in their source code.

In the JAX-WS Web Services node, the system shows the Web services and the SEIs under separate folders. You can use the JAX-WS Web Services node to find Web services in a single location instead of searching for them in the project.

The JAX-WS Web Services node enables you to open a Web service, a Web service method, or an SEI. The system opens the containing implementation bean and highlights the artifact you want to show. From the JAX-WS Web Services node, you can also navigate to the Web service implementation bean located in the Deployment Descriptor node.

Procedure

Opening Objects from the JAX-WS Web Services Node

       1.      In the Project Explorer view of the Java EE perspective, expand the project, and then choose JAX-WS Web Services.

       2.      From the Service Endpoint Interfaces or the Web Services folders, choose a sub-node.

       3.      Right click the node, and then choose Open.

The system opens in a window the implementation bean or the SEI of the Web service.

Navigating to Web Service Implementations in the Deployment Descriptor node

...

       1.      In the Project Explorer view, expand the project and then choose JAX-WS Web Services.

       2.      From the Web Services folders, choose a Web service.

       3.      Right click the node, and then choose Show in EJB area.

The system navigates you to the implementation bean of the Web service located in the Deployment Descriptor node of the project.
