Dynamically create services from WSDL without code generation

[Mikael Ögren <mi...@gmail.com>]

Hi!

I admit being somewhat of a newbe to this area so I need your help.

So basically what I have got is a proprietary format that I can get WSDL
from. From the WSDL structure (in memory, not on file) I want to be able to
dynamically add the services specified in the WSDL and then receive SOAP
requests towards these services. Note that it is not one WSDL but many. I
can not generate java classes for it so it need to be handled dynamically
in the server. I also want to be able to dynamically provide the WSDL file
as is customary with the ?wsdl argument on the address for the service.

So is this possible to do in CXF and how?

Any help GREATLY appreciated.

Best Regards
/Mikael

Hi,

Perhaps in this case will be easier to implement generic service based on Provider<> interface and process all kind of requests through it.

Refer these sites for documentation and examples:
- http://cxf.apache.org/docs/provider-services.html
- https://github.com/apache/cxf/tree/master/distribution/src/main/release/samples/jaxws_dispatch_provider 

Regards,
Andrei.
