Building Services Now that you know how to use isCOBOL for Axis2 to generate clients from WSDL, this section digs a little deeper, showing you how to create services from legacy cobol code. isCOBOL for Axis2 provides a number of ways to create a service, such as: • Create a service and build it from scratch: In this case, you build your service class to specifically access AXIOM OMElement objects, then create the services.xml file and package it up for deployment. • Deploy Legacy cobol program as a service. • Generate the service from WSDL: Just as you can generate clients with WSDL, you can generate the skeleton of a service.
