Chapter 29. Publishing a Service
Abstract
When you want to deploy a JAX-WS service as a standalone Java application, you must explicitly implement the code that publishes the service provider.
29.1. When to Publish a Service
Apache CXF provides a number of ways to publish a service as a service provider. How you publish a service depends on the deployment environment you are using. Many of the containers supported by Apache CXF do not require writing logic for publishing endpoints. There are two exceptions:
- deploying a server as a standalone Java application
- deploying a server into an OSGi container without Blueprint
For detailed information in deploying applications into the supported containers see Part IV, “Configuring Web Service Endpoints”.
