Publishing an endpoint from XML
CXF uses Spring to provide XML configuration of services. This means that first we'll want to load Spring via a Servlet listener and tell it where our XML configuration file is:
Next, you'll need to add CXFServlet to your web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>
classpath:com/acme/ws/services.xml
</param-value>
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<display-name>CXF Servlet</display-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>The next step is to actually write the configuration file:
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:jaxws="http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws"
xmlns:jaxrs="http://cxf.apache.org/jaxrs"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans

http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws
http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/jaxws.xsd

<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml"/>
<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-soap.xml"/>
<import resource=
"classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-jaxrs-binding.xml"/>
<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-servlet.xml"/>
<jaxws:endpoint id="greeter"
implementor="org.apache.hello_soap_http.GreeterImpl"
address="/Greeter1"/>
<jaxrs:server id="greeterRest"
serviceClass="org.apache.hello_soap_http.GreeterImpl"
address="/GreeterRest"/>
</beans>Here we're creating a JAX-WS endpoint based on our implementation class, GreeterImpl.
NOTE: We're publishing endpoints "http://localhost/mycontext/services/Greeter1" and "http://localhost/mycontext/services/GreeterRest", but we set jaxws:endpoint/@address and jaxrs:server/@address to relative values such as "/Greeter1" "/GreeterRest".
