Using java2ws with Ant

The java2ws command can be wrapped inside an Ant target as shown below:

Code Block

	xml
	xml


<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="cxf java2ws" basedir=".">   
   <property name="cxf.home" location ="/usr/myapps/cxf-trunk"/>
   <property name="build.classes.dir" location ="${basedir}/build/classes"/>

   <path id="cxf.classpath">
      <pathelement location="${build.classes.dir}"/>
      <fileset dir="${cxf.home}/lib">
         <include name="*.jar"/>
      </fileset>
   </path>
      
   <target name="cxfJavaToWS">
      <java classname="org.apache.cxf.tools.java2ws.JavaToWS" fork="true">
         <arg value="-wsdl"/>
         <arg value="-o"/>
         <arg value="hello.wsdl"/>
         <arg value="service.Greeter"/>
         <classpath>
            <path refid="cxf.classpath"/>
         </classpath>
      </java>
   </target>
</project>

Make sure you set the "fork=true" attribute for the <java/> task as shown above. Also, remember to keep each word or flag within the command line options in its own <arg/> element (e.g., do not use <arg value="-o hello.wsdl"/>, but split them up into two <arg/> elements as done here.)
