Hi,
I am new to webservices, so excuse me if you find the question absurd.
I have a Session EJB, (weblogic 8.1) whose methods I want to expose as webservice.These methods have arguments and return types that are not
built-in datatypes.
If I use servicegen ant task, it creates some client jar file.
Question: Is it that I've to put these class files(jar) in the calling application? Is there no way that I can avoid that?
In other words, is it possible to use webservices w/o any client jars at all?

regards,
Prashant

Well, the client needs at least all the non-standard classes that are being transferred over the WS, in addition to the usual WS scaffolding. Why would this be a problem?
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
