webservice using JAX-RPC

[Mohan Basavarajappa]

Hello,
can anyone send me a document that explains the setps how to create a webservice using JWSDP without making use of IDE. I am not intrested in using IDE.
What is the directory structure to be maintained for deployment on tomcat container. what are tools to be used and when to be used.
The reason is, i am getting the error when i run wsdeploy.bat file.
I have integrated the JWSDP1.5 with tomcat50-jwsdp. This container is the one that is available at sunmicrosystem website


C:\Sun\jwsdp-1.5\jaxrpc\samples\Service>%JWSDP_HOME%\jaxrpc\bin\wsdeploy.bat -verbose -keep -tmpdir
build\tmpdir -o dist/myWStest.war build\myWEB-INF.war

IS THIS SOMETHING THAT IS RELATED TO MY SYSTEM SETTINGS

wsdeploy is complaining about the fact that it can't find the jaxrpc-ri.xml file in the WEB-INF directory of your input WAR. The jaxrpc-ri.xml is JWSDPs version of the webservices.xml. The jaxrpc-ri.xml must be deployed together with the web.xml file. The jaxrpc-ri.xml contains web service deployment information that cannot be put in the web.xml file.

For examples of jaxrpc-ri.xml files see:
