Configuration using annotations makes development a webservies application really simple and fast. It is a big change from the past when there were lot of steps need to be done to build a webservices application.
There are two packages in the Maven project. restful.services for Restful services and soap.services for SOAP services.
The configurations for restful and soap webservices have been done in both two interfaces and cxf-beans.xml which is located in \src\main\webapp\WEB-INF\cxf-beans.xml.
To build project, right click on POM file and select Run As -> Maven Build.
To copy generated war file (CXFwebservicesMaven-1.0.0.war) to a web server as Tomcat and startup the web server to deploy the application and publish the web services.
Testing:
SOAP services endpoint:
http://localhost:8080/CXFwebservicesMaven-1.0.0/soapservices?wsdl
Restful services endpoint:
http://localhost:8080/CXFwebservicesMaven-1.0.0/restservices
Above is GET request. To test for the POST request, you may use SoapUI (https://www.soapui.org) tool to send the data. SoapUI also supports to call a SOAP service, of course as its name :)).
Go to http://localhost:8080/CXFwebservicesMaven-1.0.0/ to see service list of the application.
The main change here is that we no need a WSDL file to generate stuffs for server side. This has been done in run time by JAX-WS integrated in JDK.
