public final class WebServiceResource
extends ResourceBase

The WebServiceResource class is used by a container to specify the Web Service resource (and method related to the resource) that a caller is attempting to access.

The toString format (which is produced by the ResourceBase class) for a Web Service resource is:
type=<webservices>, application=myApp, method=myMethod, signature={argumentType1, argumentType2}

WebServiceResource

public WebServiceResource(String application,
                          String contextPath,
                          String webService,
                          String method,
                          String[] signature)

Constructs a new WebServiceResource with a target name composed from the application, method, and signature parameters.

Parameters:

application - the name of the application in which the resource is deployed, as it appears in the corresponding <display-name> element. The <display-name> element is associated with an <application> element in the deployment descriptor, in an .ear file.

contextPath - the context path for the Web application.

webService - the name of the Web Service.

method - a String representing the name of the service that is to be invoked. A value of null indicates that the security policy for the resource pertains to all methods that match the other parameters of the resource specification, without consideration of the method name.

signature - an array of Strings specifying the signature of the target method. Each element in the array contains the type of that parameter, described as a fully-qualified Java class. A value of null indicates that the method being protected accepts no parameters.
