Hi Deepal thanks for reply: >Only at the starting time or does it work runtime as well? What do you mean? If the clients can use the service? I can see the wsdl and I tried a service call and it works.
Also is a services.xml needed for pojos? ________________________________ From: Deepal jayasinghe <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, January 27, 2011 1:54:07 AM Subject: Re: Axis2 deployment mechanism for POJOs I am Axis2 starter and I have the following question. >Most of the tutorials mention that to deploy a pojo, the pojo >should >be placed under the pojo directory (and if it does not exist, >create >it). > >Additionally, pojos under a package, should be placed in a .jar >and >modify the deployer in axis2.xml to point to pojo directory for >jars. >But in official guide of axis2 >http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/pojoguide.html there is no mention >of a need for pojo directory. > > Need to update the document. Additionally, I noticed that if I drop the jar containing the pojo class to be deployed as a web service, in the WEB-INF/lib directory the pojo deployment still works! > Only at the starting time or does it work runtime as well? So, can someone please tell me if the pojo directory is needed or not? Or is the pojo directory required only, if you have no services.xml file descriptor for the pojo? > The requirement of pojos directory is to support pojo deployment, if you are going to deploy services as services aar file, then you do not need it. You can simply delete it. Deepal Because for the case of http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/docs/pojoguide.html there is indeed a services.xml for the pojo.
