Configuring Deployment Descriptors for Tomcat (WAR archive)

Since the cxf-servlet.xml Spring configuration file below is used just for WAR deployment, the project has this file stored in the WAR submodule's war/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF folder instead of within the servlet submodule.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xmlns:jaxws="http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws"
      xsi:schemaLocation="
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
         http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws
         http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/jaxws.xsd">

    <jaxws:endpoint 
        id="doubleit"
        implementor="service.DoubleItPortTypeImpl"
        wsdlLocation="WEB-INF/wsdl/DoubleIt.wsdl"
        address="/doubleit">
    </jaxws:endpoint>
</beans>

In the same folder, we store the web.xml file shown below for the WAR archive.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee 
    http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">
    <display-name>Sample web service provider</display-name>
    <listener>
        <listener-class>
              org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
        </listener-class>
    </listener>
    <context-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>
          classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml
        </param-value>
    </context-param>
    <servlet>

    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>WebServicePort</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    <session-config>
        <session-timeout>60</session-timeout>
    </session-config>
</web-app>
