Configuring Web Services via Deployment Descriptors

See Also

In JAX-RPC (J2EE 1.4), you use deployment descriptors to configure web services.

Deployment descriptors are XML-based text files whose elements describe how to assemble and deploy a module to a specific environment. The elements also contain behavioral information about components not included directly in code.

For web services, the webservices.xml file configures web services, but note that you should seldom have a need for editing this file.

To edit webservices.xml:

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration Files node for your project.
  2. Double-click webservices.xml to open it in the Source Editor.
  3. Edit the deployment descriptor as necessary.
  4. Choose File > Save to save your changes.

To edit filename-config.xml:

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Source Packages node for your project.
  2. Double-click filename-config.xml to open it in the Source Editor.
  3. Edit the configuration file as necessary.
  4. Choose File > Save to save your changes.
