<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>Hi,</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I am currently working on a project, where we need to add custom CXF interceptors to the CXF bus for the current deployment.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>The only practically working way to customize the deployment is to add a WEB-INF/jbossws-cxf.xml file to our deployment.</p><p>Generally it works, but there are some bad things using the combination AS7/JBossWS/CXF.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>We have a lot of web services which are bundled in one or more WAR files.</p><p>All of them have "standard" JAX-WS annotations (e.g. @WebService) and work fine (everything bundled in a WAR in an EAR ; deploy to AS7 ; fine).</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>But as I mentioned, we need custom interceptors.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>So I added the interceptors to a jbossws-cxf.xml file:</p><p>    <jaxws:endpoint</p><p><span>            address='</span><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://@jboss.bind.address@/demo/service/SuperService" target="_blank">http://@jboss.bind.address@/demo/service/SuperService</a><span>'</span></p><p>            implementor='com.mycompany.demo.java.MySuperWebservice'></p><p> <span class="code-tag">       <jaxws:inInterceptors></span></p><p>            <ref bean="myGreatInterceptor"/></p><p><span class="code-tag">        <jaxws:inInterceptors></span></p><p>    </jaxws:endpoint></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>This works - but what I really want is a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">default</span> bus configuration for all webservices in the WAR file (deployment) - I do not want to configure all web services. So I tried the following approach in jbossws-cxf.xml:</p><p>    <bean class="com.mycompany.jboss7.cxf.BusInterceptorsInjector" init-method="injectInterceptors"></p><p>        <property name="bus" ref="cxf"/></p><p>        <property name="inInterceptors"></p><p>            <list></p><p>                <ref bean="FrameworkCxfPreInvokeInterceptor"/></p><p>                <ref bean="FrameworkCxfPostInvokeInterceptor"/></p><p>            </list></p><p>        </property></p><p>    </bean></p><p>This works - but only if <strong>every</strong> webservice is mentioned like</p><p>    <jaxws:endpoint</p><p><span>            address='</span><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://@jboss.bind.address@/demo/service/SuperService" target="_blank">http://@jboss.bind.address@/demo/service/SuperService</a><span>'</span></p><p>            implementor='com.mycompany.demo.java.MySuperWebservice'/></p><p>This is silly, because the jaxws:endpoint configuration specifies nothing meaningful.</p><p>Every invocation of a web service which is not mentioned in a jbossws-cxf.xml file, fails with a NullPointerException in org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.CXFInstanceProvider at line 57 - the CXFInstanceProvider is configured with a "null" ServerFactoryBean.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>What I would like to have in AS7/JBossWS/CXF is</p><ul><li style="text-align: start;">a mechanism, where I can configure the CXF bus for each deployment (specifying another bus definition in jbossws-cxf.xml does not work, because the "default" bus is created "inside the server code") and</li><li style="text-align: start;">no need to specify every web service in jbossws-cxf.xml and</li><li style="text-align: start;">no need to specify the fully qualified address attribute in jaxws:endpoint - developers do not know the exact address, port and context path ot a deployment. AS7/JBossWS should accept at least paths relative to the context root of the current deployment (specifying addresses like /service/SuperService does not work - it cannot find the destination of a web service call)</li><li style="text-align: start;">no need to specify the implementor in jaxws:endpoint, because it is already configured elsewhere (web.xml) - a functionaltity like a "servlet-link" would be great</li></ul><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p style="text-align: start;">Robert.</p></div>
