Java SOAP Server that can be deployed to Tomcat, JBoss, Geronimo, etc. Etc. Etc.

Question

I hope to create a Java SOAP server that I can deploy to Tomcat, or to JBoss, or to Geronimo, or to XYZ, etc. etc. etc.

In the bottom line, it should have the least dependencies. I am trying to avoid libraries beyond what is included in the standard java distribution due to licensing / packaging / reuse issues.

Can I provide a link to where I should start searching, or some sample code?

Drop the banners in the Java 5 web container, annotate your class and method with the standard @tags, and let Metro do the rest.

I was very pleased with the performance in the Jetty container.

Answer 5

If you use the Spring web service module, you do not need Axis or XFire. I think this is a good way if you are already using Spring.
