I would recommend using Apache CXF instead of XFire. CXF is a bit of the next XFire version, and XFire is not developped anymore. Exposing a bean as an HTTP service is just a matter of a few lines of xml configuration.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/servicemix/smx4/features/trunk/examples/cxf-osgi/src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/beans.xml Using spring DM, we could easily use an existing service instead of simply giving the class name. Also note that this example uses CXF and expose the service over HTTP using the OSGi HTTP service. This example can be deployed onto ServiceMix Kernel which is based on Felix. If you want to have a look at it, have a look at http://servicemix.apache.org/smx4/cxf-examples.html, which contains very basic instructions on how to deploy this sample (ServiceMix 4 is evolving quite quickly, so if you have any problems, join our mailing list and we'll fix it asap).
