java -jar bin\felix.jar

Install OSGi remote service sample bundles

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sca-java-2.x/trunk/samples/dosgi-dynamic-calculator/dosgi-calculator.png
-> install file:///C:/Tuscany-2.x/java/sca/samples/dosgi-dynamic-calculator/target/sample-dosgi-dynamic-calculator.jar

Now, the distributed OSGi calculator is available as a Web service at http://rfengt61p:8086/CalculatorService. You can see the WSDL in a browser with URL: http://rfengt61p:8086/CalculatorService?wsdl.

You can now use a web service client such as Eclipse Web Service explorer to invoke the calculator.

You can download a JAX-WS client for the calculator sample and run:
java -jar sample-calculator-jaxws-client.jar expression
The expression can be like 1.0+2.0, 2.0/1.0, 3.5-2.0, or 1.0x2.0
