Element Detail

contextRoot

String contextRoot

The contextRoot element specifies the context root that the web service endpoint is deployed to. If it is not specified it will be derived from the deployment short name. Applies to server side port components only

Returns:

string

Default:

""

virtualHost

String virtualHost

The virtual host that the web service endpoint is deployed to. Applies to server side port components only.

Returns:

string

Default:

""

urlPattern

String urlPattern

Relative path that is appended to the contextRoot to form fully qualified endpoint address for the web service endpoint. Applies to server side port components only.

Returns:

string

authMethod

String authMethod

The authMethod is used to configure the authentication mechanism for the web service. As a prerequisite to gaining access to any web service which are protected by an authorization constraint, a user must have authenticated using the configured mechanism. Standard values for this element are "BASIC", or "CLIENT-CERT", custom authMethods may also be specified.

Returns:

string

See Also:

AuthMethod

Default:

""

transportGuarantee

String transportGuarantee

The transportGuarantee specifies that the communication between client and server should be NONE, INTEGRAL, or CONFIDENTIAL. NONE means that the application does not require any transport guarantees. A value of INTEGRAL means that the application requires that the data sent between the client and server be sent in such a way that it can't be changed in transit. CONFIDENTIAL means that the application requires that the data be transmitted in a fashion that prevents other entities from observing the contents of the transmission. In most cases, the presence of the INTEGRAL or CONFIDENTIAL flag will indicate that the use of SSL is required.

Returns:

string

Default:

""

secureWSDLAccess

A secure endpoint does not secure wsdl access by default. Explicitly setting secureWSDLAccess overrides this behaviour. Protect access to WSDL. See http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-723

Returns:

boolean

Default:

false

realmName

String realmName

Description of the resource being accessed

Returns:

string

Default:
