CXF Webservice and Resource handler with embedded jetty in osgi with spring dynamic modules

Hi everyone,


i'm trying to run an apache cxf endpoint in an equinox osgi environment with
jetty 7. I need the endpoint to be on address
http://x.x.x.x:8080/ws/endpoint1 and have static resources on the root path
http://x.x.x.x:8080/*.

I have a dedicated bundle for this purpose containing the cxf libraries.
Spring dynamic modules are part of my target platform.

After some research I tried to start the jetty webserver in my spring
application context.

<bean id="Server" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server"
    init-method="start" destroy-method="stop">

    <property name="connectors">
        <list>
            <bean id="Connector"
class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector">
                <property name="port" value="8080" />
            </bean>
        </list>
    </property>

    <property name="handler">
        <bean id="handlers"
class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.HandlerList">
            <property name="handlers">
                <list>
                    <bean
class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.ResourceHandler">
                        <property name="directoriesListed" value="true" />
                        <property name="welcomeFiles">
                            <list>
                                <value>index.html</value>
                            </list>
                        </property>
                        <property name="resourceBase" value="./someDir" />
                    </bean>
                    <ref bean="web-service-cxf" />
                    <bean
class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.DefaultHandler" />
                </list>
            </property>
        </bean>
    </property>
</bean>



<bean name="web-service-cxf"
class="org.eclipse.jetty.servlet.ServletContextHandler">
    <property name="contextPath" value="/ws" />
    <property name="handler">
        <bean class="org.eclipse.jetty.servlet.ServletHandler">
            <property name="servlets">
                <list>
                    <bean class="org.eclipse.jetty.servlet.ServletHolder">
                        <property name="name" value="cxf-servlet-holder" />
                        <property name="servlet">
                            <bean
class="org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet">
                            </bean>
                        </property>
                    </bean>
                </list>
            </property>
            <property name="servletMappings">
                <list>
                    <bean class="org.eclipse.jetty.servlet.ServletMapping">
                        <property name="servletName"
value="cxf-servlet-holder" />
                        <property name="pathSpec" value="/*" />
                    </bean>
                </list>
            </property>
        </bean>
    </property>
</bean>

My WebService Endpoint is declared with:

<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml" />
<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-servlet.xml" />

<bean id="someService" class="abc.xyz.SomeClass" />
<jaxws:endpoint id="endpointId" implementor="#someBean"
    address="/endpoint1">
</jaxws:endpoint>

Unfortunatly this is not working. I can reach the static resources, but not
the webservice. The log says, the WebService is published under address
/endpoint1. No warnings, no exceptions.

When I change the address of the webservice to its full url

<bean id="someService" class="abc.xyz.SomeClass" />
<jaxws:endpoint id="endpointId" implementor="#someBean"
    address="http://x.x.x.x:8080/ws/endpoint1";>
</jaxws:endpoint>

the webservice works fine, but the static ressources are not available any
more.

Is it possible with a configuration like this to publish an endpoint to a
running jetty with relative address? Or am I totally wrong? Most examples I
found on the web use a web.xml, but I'm not working with an application
server like tomcat and need the application to be a standalone eclipse app.

Spend the whole last two nights on this, any help is highly appreciated.

Kind regards, Onno


I also posted on stackoverflow yesterday because I'm a bit under pressure
with this issue, hope that's fine.
