This is not exactly concise, please forgive me.
Step 1: load up a load of beans. applicationContext = new GenericApplicationContext(); readBeans(new ClassPathResource("META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml")); readBeans(new ClassPathResource("META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-soap.xml")); readBeans(new ClassPathResource("META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-http.xml")); readBeans(new ClassPathResource("META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-http-jetty.xml")); readBeans(new ClassPathResource("jetty-config-beans.xml", getClass())); readBeans(getServiceDefinitionBeans()); // bring in some property values from a Properties file PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer cfg = new PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer(); Properties properties = new Properties(); properties.setProperty("staticResourceURL", getStaticResourceURL()); cfg.setProperties(properties); // now actually do the replacement cfg.postProcessBeanFactory(applicationContext.getBeanFactory()); applicationContext.refresh(); Step 2: What's in those beans? The jetty-config-beans.xml looks like: <httpj:engine-factory bus="cxf"> <httpj:engine port="8808"> <httpj:handlers> <bean class="org.mortbay.jetty.handler.ResourceHandler"> <property name="baseResource"> <bean class="org.mortbay.resource.FileResource"> <constructor-arg value="${staticResourceURL}"/> </bean> </property> </bean> <bean class="org.mortbay.jetty.handler.DefaultHandler"/> </httpj:handlers> </httpj:engine> </httpj:engine-factory> And the last set of beans looks like: <bean id="aegisBean" class="org.apache.cxf.aegis.databinding.AegisDatabinding" scope='prototype'> <property name='configuration'> <bean class='org.apache.cxf.aegis.type.Configuration'> <property name='defaultMinOccurs' value='1' /> <property name='defaultNillable' value='false' /> </bean> </property> </bean> <bean id='jaxws-and-aegis-service-factory' class="org.apache.cxf.jaxws.support.JaxWsServiceFactoryBean" scope='prototype'> <property name="dataBinding" ref="aegisBean" /> </bean> <jaxws:endpoint id="dummy-service-endpoint" implementor="com.basistech.ws.DummyServiceImpl" address="http://localhost:8808/Dummy"> <jaxws:serviceFactory> <ref bean='jaxws-and-aegis-service-factory' /> </jaxws:serviceFactory> </jaxws:endpoint> <bean id="dummy-client" class="com.basistech.ws.DummyService" factory-bean="clientFactory" factory-method="create" /> <bean id="clientFactory" class="org.apache.cxf.jaxws.JaxWsProxyFactoryBean"> <property name="serviceClass" value="com.basistech.ws.DummyService" /> <property name="address" value="http://localhost:8808/Dummy" /> </bean> So, what could explain the following log traffic? What is with 'IOException: not found'?
