Apache Chemistry OpenCMIS server won't deploy on JBoss AS 7

Question

I'm trying to use Apache Chemistry OpenCMIS (v0.10.0) to create a server according to the tutorial at : http://chemistry.apache.org/java/how-to/how-to-create-server.html

I'm using JBoss AS 7.1.1.1.Final but when I deploy it creates most services correct until this error occurs.

Caused by: org.apache.cxf.jaxws.JaxWsConfigurationException: The @javax.jws.WebMethod(exclude=true) cannot be used on a service endpoint interface. Method: createType

I'm using the WAR dependency from Apache, but I located the source code that causes it

public interface RepositoryServicePort10 extends RepositoryServicePort {
  @WebMethod(action = "createType", exclude = true)
  public void createType(String repositoryId, Holder<CmisTypeDefinitionType> type, CmisExtensionType extension)
         throws CmisException;

What should I do to resolve this problem?

Is it something I can configure CXF to ignore?

Or do I need to download the code, remove the "exclude = true" part and recompile? Will the server function as normal without it?

Thankful for any suggestions.

Regards, Ivar

Answer 1

I just tried the solution / and verified it / if anybody interested.

1. Download the sources / create a tree project with Maven on your IDE

   /chemistry-opencmis-0.11.0 /chemistry-opencmis-server-bindings /chemistry-opencmis-server-inmemory

2. -> update compiler version from 1.5 to 1.7 on parent pom.

3. Update 2 followings files from -bindings:

   ObjectServicePort10.java

   RepositoryServicePort10.java

   -> just kick out attributes (.. , exclude = true) attributes from @webmethod

And this would deploy as a charm on JBoss 7.1

Enjoy !
