I'm experimenting with supporting SOAP via a component, but trying to identify the right component. I tried pretending to be an Event Listener (see classes below), but this is kind of a kludge, and I'm not able to get my SOAP Service Endpoint Implementation a copy of the XWiki Context (so my service endpoint can access to the wiki on service calls). Any ideas? Here are the classes: ---8<--- MyService class ---8<--- package com.modusoperandi.xwiki.importer; import javax.jws.WebService; @WebService public class MyService { public String getCurrentTime() { return new java.util.Date().toString(); } } ---8<--- SoapExtension class ---8<--- package com.modusoperandi.xwiki.importer; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint; import org.xwiki.component.annotation.Component; import org.xwiki.observation.EventListener; import org.xwiki.observation.event.Event; @Component("mo-soap") public class SoapExtension implements EventListener { public SoapExtension() { super(); } @Override public List<Event> getEvents() { System.out.println("getEvents() called."); ArrayList<Event> eventList = new ArrayList<Event>(); // No events, really. Just acting like an event listener to get // called at XWiki startup. // TODO for now, register soap services here. Endpoint.publish("http://0.0.0.0:8084/myservice", new MyService()); return eventList; } /* * (non-Javadoc) * * @see org.xwiki.observation.EventListener#getName() */ @Override public String getName() { return "mo-soap"; } /* * (non-Javadoc) * * @see * org.xwiki.observation.EventListener#onEvent(org.xwiki.observation.event * .Event, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object) */ @Override public void onEvent(Event event, Object doc, Object ctx) { } } Thanks, -Mark On 10/19/2011 4:04 AM, Thomas Mortagne wrote:
