<shortdesc>If you prefer not to use the Web service wizard, you can use Ant | |
files to create Web services and clients using the Axis runtime environment. | |
The Web services Ant tasks can be run in two ways: through the Eclipse workspace | |
using <menucascade><uicontrol>Run As</uicontrol><uicontrol>Ant Build...</uicontrol> | |
</menucascade>, or they can be run headless through the command line. Once | |
you have created your Web service, you can then deploy it to a server, test | |
it, and publish it as a business entity or business service.</shortdesc> | |

<section><title>Prerequisites</title><p>Before you create a Web service or | |
client using the Ant tasks, you need to complete a few prerequisites.</p><ul> | |
<li>Install Apache Tomcat, create a server, and create a dynamic Web project | |
associated with that server as described in <xref href="../../org.eclipse.jst.ws.axis.ui.doc.user/topics/ttomcatserv.dita" | |
scope="peer">Creating an Apache Tomcat server and Web project</xref></li> | |
<li>Import the required Ant files into your workspace:<ol> | |
<li>Create a project.</li> | |
<li>Import the required Ant files. Select <menucascade><uicontrol>File</uicontrol> | |
<uicontrol>New</uicontrol><uicontrol>Other</uicontrol><uicontrol>Web Services</uicontrol> | |
<uicontrol>Ant Files</uicontrol><uicontrol>Next</uicontrol></menucascade>.</li> | |
<li>Select the following:<ul> | |
<li>Web service runtime</li> | |
<li>Web service or client type</li> | |
<li>Location into which the ant files will be generated</li> | |
</ul>Click <uicontrol>Finish</uicontrol>.</li> | |
</ol>Depending on the selections made on the previous panel, several files | |
may be imported into this project:<ul> | |
<li><i>runtime_servicetype</i>.xml - this is the Ant file.</li> | |
<li><i>runtime_servicetype</i>.properties - this is a sample Ant properties | |
file referenced by the Ant file. You can modify the properties in this file | |
to generate a Web service.</li> | |
</ul></li> | |
<li>Create a dynamic Web project for the Web service or client.</li> | |
</ul></section> | |
