How to make an @WebService spring aware

Question

I have a Web Service which I am trying to Autowire a variable into. Here is the class:

package com.xetius.isales.pr7.service;

import java.util.Arrays;
impo         


        

Answer 1

Depending on container version or even the Spring, hereinafter you will have an easy solution to expose your WSDL, use:

@PostConstruct
SpringBeanAutowiringSupport.processInjectionBasedOnCurrentContext(this);

Answer 2

If you want autowiring to happen, ProductRulesWebService needs to extend SpringBeanAutowiringSupport

Extending that class will allow UpgradeController to be autowired

Answer 3

Use a stack like CXF, which supports Spring natively, then you can essentially do something like this:

<bean id="aService" class="com.xetius.isales.pr7.service.ProductRulesWebService " />

<jaxws:endpoint id="aServiceEndpoint" implementor="#aService" address="/aService" />
