WSCreator Demo Files

#Author: Anurag Verma
To try out the demo application you need to download "wscreatordemo.war" file and deploy it to server.
Here are the changes you need to make in your Web Application which must be using Spring-IOC -
1) Add dependency of wscreator to your pom.xml file - 
		
		<dependency>
			<groupId>com.maximaconsulting</groupId>
			<artifactId>wscreator</artifactId>
			<version>replace_with_latest_version</version>
		</dependency>
		
2) Add @WebService annotation to all the Interfaces you need to expose as a web-service.

3) Add @XmlSeeAlso({types}) annotation below @WebService annotation and add types used in the interface (POJO Types).

4) Add @HiddenMethod annotation to the methods which are not intended to be exposed as web-service.

5) In all annotated interfaces, add @WebParam(name="paramName") with a meaningful name to all parameters of all methods (skip for methods annotated with @HiddenMethod).

6) Add following content to your web.xml file. Change "url-pattern" node as per your need. Also update the scanPackages parameter with the package names to scan for interfaces with @WebService annotation.

	<servlet>
		<servlet-name>WSCreatorWebServices</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>com.maximaconsulting.webservices.WSServlet</servlet-class>
		<init-param>
			<param-name>scanPackages</param-name>
			<param-value>comma_separated_package_names_to_scan_for_service_interfaces_without_spaces</param-value>
		</init-param>
		<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
	</servlet>

	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>WSCreatorWebServices</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>/webservices/*</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>

7) Build your application & deploy it. Your SOAP & REST services should be ready to use. See Service Inventory page at http(s)://server:port/warfile_name/specified_uri  

NOTE: For calling SOAP Services, the "SOAPAction" header is a must
