Java web service without a web application server

问题

We have a message processing server, which

• start a few threads
• processing the message
• interact with the database etc.....

now the client want to have a web service server on the server, they will be able to querying the message processing server, with a web service client. e.g. give me all the messages for today, or delete the message with id....

the problem are:

• The server just a standard j2se application, doesn't run inside application server, like tomcat or glassfish.
• To handle a Http request, do I need to implement a http server?
• I would like to use the nice j2ee annotation such as @webservice, @webmothod etc... is there any library or framework I can use

You don't need a third party library to use jax-ws annotations. J2SE ships with jax-ws, so all the annotations are still available to you. You can achieve lightweight results with the following solution, but for anything optimized/multi-threaded, it's on your own head to implement:

1. Design a SEI, service endpoint interface, which is basically a java interface with web-service annotations. This is not mandatory, it's just a point of good design from basic OOP.

   import javax.jws.WebService;
   import javax.jws.WebMethod;
   import javax.jws.WebParam;
   import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding;
   import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding.Style;
   
   @WebService
   @SOAPBinding(style = Style.RPC) //this annotation stipulates the style of your ws, document or rpc based. rpc is more straightforward and simpler. And old.
   public interface MyService{
   @WebMethod String getString();
   
   }
   

2. Implement the SEI in a java class called a SIB service implementation bean.

   @WebService(endpointInterface = "com.yours.wsinterface") //this binds the SEI to the SIB
   public class MyServiceImpl implements MyService {
   public String getResult() { return "result"; }
    }
   

3. Expose the service using an Endpoint import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint;

   public class MyServiceEndpoint{
   
   public static void main(String[] params){
     Endpoint endPoint =  EndPoint.create(new MyServiceImpl());
     endPoint.publish("http://localhost:9001/myService"); //supply your desired url to the publish method to actually expose the service.
      }
   }
   

The snippets above, like I said, are pretty basic, and will perform poorly in production. You'll need to work out a threading model for requests. The endpoint API accepts an instance of Executor to support concurrent requests. Threading's not really my thing, so I'm unable to give you pointers.

For using nice j2ee annotations see Apache CXF http://cxf.apache.org/.
