This section describes how to expose and deploy files and components as Web services:
Deploying refers to the process of selecting a Java file or component that is located in the WST development tool (In the Package Explorer or Project view) and using one of the Deploy wizards to create the Web service and install/deploy it to a server as well as display it in the Sybase Web Services view.
Exposing refers to the process of selecting a supported component type that already resides on the server (Sybase Web Services view) and using one of the Expose wizards to make it available as a Web service.
There are several ways to deploy and expose components as Web services depending on the options you choose, type of component, and location of component or file. For example:
You can use the “Quickly Deploy as Web Service” or “Deploy as Web Service” wizards. Both of these wizards are available from the package explorer and from individual projects and are used to deploy a Java file as a Web service. Quickly deploying a Web service automatically uses default settings for most options.
You can use the “Expose as Web Service” or “Quickly Expose as Web Service” wizards. Both of these wizards are available from the Other components folder of the Sybase Web Services view, and allow you to expose an existing EAServer component as a Web service.
From the package explorer you can also select a WSDD file and choose Deploy (which is different from the wizards above).
