Once we deploy our project, our web service can be accessed by clients just like
any other web service. It makes no difference to the client that our web service
was implemented as a session bean.
Exposing existing EJBs as web services
The second way we can expose EJBs as web services is to expose an existing EJB as
a web service. In order to do this, we need to create a web service as usual by going
to
File | New | Web Service
, then enter a name and a package for our web service
and select the
Create Web Service from Existing Session Bean
radio button, then we
need to select the session bean to expose as a web service by clicking on the
Browse...
button and selecting the appropriate bean.
