Add a target build-client to the build.xml file to generate the client artifacts. Add a clientgen element to the target element. Specify type as JAXWS, destDir as output/clientclass, packageName as webservices.jaxws.client, and wsdl as http://localhost:7001/HelloWsImpl/HelloWsImplService?WSDL.

<clientgen type="JAXWS"
wsdl="http://localhost:7001/HelloWsImpl/HelloWsImplService?WSDL"
destDir="output/clientclass" packageName="webservices.jaxws.client"/>

Add javac elements to the target element to com-pile the client artifact Java classes and the Main.java client Java application. The build.xml file is listed below.

<project name="webservices-simple_client" default="all">
<taskdef name="clientgen"
classname="weblogic.wsee.tools.anttasks.ClientGenTask" />
<target name="build-client"> <clientgen type="JAXWS"
wsdl="http://localhost:7001/HelloWsImpl/HelloWsImplService?WSDL"
destDir="output/clientclass" packageName="webservices.jaxws.client"/>
<javac srcdir="output/clientclass" destdir="output/clientclass" includes="**/*.java"/>
<javac srcdir="src" destdir="output/clientclass"
includes="webservices/jaxws/client/*.java"/></target>
</project>

Run the build-client target to generate the client artifacts and compile the Java classes.

C:\BEA\user_projects\webservices\simple_client> ant build-client

The client artifacts get generated and the Java classes get compiled. The output from the build-client target is shown in Figure 3.

Next, add a target to the build.xml file to run the client Java application Main.java. Add a target run. Also add a path element to specify the classpath to run the Main.java application. The classpath should include the output/clientclass directory that contains the client artifacts and the system property java.class.path. The modified build.xml file is shown below.

<project name="webservices-simple_client" default="all"> <taskdef name="clientgen"
classname="weblogic.wsee.tools.anttasks.ClientGenTask" />
<target name="build-client"> <clientgen type="JAXWS"
wsdl="http://localhost:7001/HelloWsImpl/HelloWsImplService?WSDL"
destDir="output/clientclass" packageName="webservices.jaxws.client"/> <javac
srcdir="output/clientclass" destdir="output/clientclass" includes="**/*.java"/> <javac
srcdir="src" destdir="output/clientclass"
includes="webservices/jaxws/client/*.java"/></target>
<path id="client.class.path">
<pathelement path="output/clientclass"/> <pathelement
path="${java.class.path}"/> </path> <target name="run" >
<java fork="true"
classname="webservices.jaxws.client.Main"failonerror="true" >
<classpath refid="client.class.path"/> </java> </target>
</project>

Next, run the target run.

The Web Service operation hello() gets invoked with a String argument and the result returned by the Web Service gets output as shown in Figure 4.

Conclusion
WebLogic Server 10 Technical Preview supports JEE 5 and the JAX-WS 2.0 Web Services. WebLogic server 10 also provides Ant tasks jwsc and clientgen to generate the Web Service artifacts and client artifacts.
