Calling a Web Service from another Web Service

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have the following scenario: Web Service -> XI -> RFC.

I have created the XI -> RFC configurations in the XI and exposed them as a Web Service. I tested the generated WSDL with WebDynpro for Java and it works well (I also uploaded the WSDL to the XI server and tested it from the wsnavigator).

I have created a Web Service from a Java class, deployed it on the XI server (the same XI server as the one with the RFC scenario), tested it and it works well.

Now I want to call the service I exposed from the XI from inside my Web Service.

How can I do that? Are there any code samples for that? I searched and couldn't find any.

create a standalone proxy for your WSDL of the web service deployed on XI java stack and use its API library in the caller Web service...

Hi,

I created a Standalone Proxy and added the JAR to the build path. I deployed my Web Service, but when I try to test it I get a NoClassDefFoundError for the Impl class of the standalone proxy.

I managed to solve the problem - I copied the classes generated by the Standalone Proxy to my Web Service project in their right places (package etc), deployed it and it worked.

Thanks for the help
