The way around using rpc/encoded style in CXF

Question

I know that CXF does not support the rpc/encoded WSDL style and I am looking for a solution to get the way around this. I have to do the implementation of rpc/encoded style web service, the problem is that the service has to be deployed in Apache Karaf 2.2.9 as an OSGi bundle which uses CXF 2.6.2 and there is no way I can implement the rpc/encoded ws.

What I am thinking is to create another web service, which will be running on a different container and would be generated with Axis 1.4. It would work as a wrapper for CXF web service which is deployed into Karaf.

I don't really like this solution, because there has to be another container involved. Maybe someone can suggest me the solution how to make this work without other container? (If it is possible at least).

Answer 1

Glen has a tutorial for that:

but it really isn't that straight forward.
