How to create JAX-WS web service client

In this post we will explain how to create JAX WS client stub to make a web service call from JAVA.

First,
Use the below command to create JAVA stub from WSDL.

wsimport -d $PATH_FOR_JAVA_CLIENT $FULL_WSDL_PATH -keep -Xnocompile -verbose
$PATH_FOR_JAVA_CLIENT--Location where the client code will get generated
$FULL_WSDL_PATH--Location of the WSDL 

To run the above command follow the below steps:

1. open cmd prompt.
2. Goto directory "$MiddlewareHome\user_projects\domains\base_domain\bin" .
3. Run "setDomainEnv.cmd" for windows and "setDomainEnv.sh" for Linux
4. Run the below command

wsimport -d C:\wsdl\code http://10.180.90.79:7777/Simple/Porduct/ProductInfo?wsdl -keep -Xnocompile -verbose

Note:
http://10.180.90.79:7777/Simple/Porduct/ProductInfo?wsdl is the dummy webservice that will return dummy product details.

Next,
1. Create new JAVA project say "JAXBClient" in eclipse.
2. Copy entire folder under 'C:\wsdl\code' and paste in SRC folder under JAXBClient project.

3. Create a new com.client.stub.ProductInfo class in same project.

package com.client.stub;
import org.example.productservice.ProductService;
import org.example.productservice.ProductService_Service;
import com.oracle.products.ProductDetail;
public class ProductInfo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ProductService_Service stub = new ProductService_Service();
ProductService proxy = stub.getProductServiceSOAP();
/*Actual Web service call*/
ProductDetail resp = proxy.getProductInfo(1);
System.out.println("Product Name :" + resp.getProductName());
System.out.println("Product Price :" + resp.getProductPrice());
}
}

On executing the above code, will get below response:

Product Name :Mobile
Product Price :1110.0

Thus we have created JAVA webservice client.

Let me know if you find any issues....
