JaxWsProxyFactoryBean instantiation exception

Question

I get java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/cxf/jaxws/JaxWsProxyFactoryBean whenever I try to create:

JaxWsProxyFactoryBean factory = new JaxWsProxyFactoryBean();

do you have any idea what can be the problem here ?

this is my pom.xml

Why not using the conventions `src/main/java` etc.? Good reasons against it? How have you started your application? — khmarbaise, Jun 21 '15 at 17:15
yes application starts but then while trying to use ws-services I get that exception on instantiation. — GionJh, Jun 21 '15 at 17:21
Although it's about Jboss 6 maybe this post is usefull for you: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17594545/jboss-6-eap-jaxwsproxyfactorybean-noclassdeffounderror — soilworker, Jun 22 '15 at 12:51
Yes that really helped ! I would like to know what's the purpose of this jboss-deploymen-structure.xml, can you help? — GionJh, Jun 23 '15 at 05:58
If you don't have classloading issues you don't need the file, maybe this post can help you understanding: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14581980/when-and-why-would-i-need-a-jboss-deployment-structure-xml-for-a-spring-applicat — soilworker, Jun 23 '15 at 07:51
Thanks,you can make your comments an answer, so that I can accept it ;) — GionJh, Jun 23 '15 at 09:15

If you don't have classloading issues you don't need the file, maybe this post can help you understanding: When and why would I need a jboss-deployment-structure.xml for a Spring application?
