You have to run a service on an application server.

Man, it seems like you do not understand what Web Service is by nature. regardless of SOAP, REST or any custom interfaces. Tomcat, Glassfish, Weblogic, JBoss, WebSphere are Java Applications already written for you. Others maybe are not Java but Applications anyway. There must be a listener who sits and waits for requests, then consumes it, works on it and return responses. that listener calls "application server" or "web server" if it is about http requests.

So... your "simple JAVA application" must be that listener i.e. "application server". Big or small it is up to you. Do you really want do that while there are more than needed "simple JAVA applications" already written?

PS: if you need just Unit Test your requests with single run, it is another story and another answers...

  • Thanks man for your reply. Suppose I have web services on remote server which I want to consume in my standalone Java application(without tomcat or any server configured simple one class application with main method). I have only WSDL file of that web service. How can this work out? and what output I get? Is it xml file or string? – Rishi Salunkhe Jun 21 '17 at 11:55
  • Please, make it clear for your-self and for us too... What do you actually want? Call remote server (it is a client)? or consume requests from clients (it is a server)? If you need a client you do not need any servers. It can be anything which calls remote server. Java Application, any other application, Web browser or even curl command. As long as you have WSDL it will be SOAP XML. So,simple way is to generate a Client out of WSDL, then call it from your code. Google or search this site how to do that. There are tons of answers and I'm not able to repeat them. sorry... – Vadim Jun 21 '17 at 12:08
