This is a JAX-WS reference implementation (Metro) extension for integrating with Spring Framework. Using this extension, it is possible to write service endpoint implementations as Spring beans, allowing for dependency injection, etc. This extension also makes it easier to configure various aspects of the web service using either Spring XML or JavaConfig.
Most of the code for this extension comes from the JAX-WS Commons Spring extension. The core classes from the original extension have been updated to work better with newer technologies such as Servlet 3.0, Spring 4, Spring Boot, and embedded servlet containers. Other parts of the original extension, such as XML-namespace-based configuration and JAX-WS local transport support, have been removed. This extension does not declare any explicit dependencies on servlet API, JAX-WS API, or JAX-WS RT. Projects that use this extension can pull in versions and implementations of those APIs they choose.
- Java 1.7 or newer
- Servlet API 2.0 or newer
- JAX-WS API
- JAX-WS RT

This extension comes with two sample web service applications that demonstrate its usage.
This sample is located in the jaxws-spring-sample directory. The sample application can be started by running the following command in the project root directory:
$ ./gradlew :jaxws-spring-sample:bootRun
The sample application implements a single service with two ports, located at:
The Application class demonstrates how to use Spring JavaConfig to configure web service components.
The FibonacciPortImpl class is a service endpoint implementation written as a Spring Bean with dependency injection.
This sample is located in the jaxws-spring-sample-fromjava directory. The sample application can be started by running the following command in the project root directory:
$ ./gradlew :jaxws-spring-sample-fromjava:bootRun
The sample application implements a single service with one port, located at:
