Deploying Axis2 web service as ROOT application on Tomcat

By default Axis2 services are available on http://host:8080/axis2/services/*. If you want to remove axis2/services part from the service endpoint and access your service by http://host:8080/serviceName/*

1. Overide default Axis2 servlet mapping services in web.xml file.

 AxisServlet
 /serviceName/*

2. Remove an application name value by deploying axis2 implementation (from war distribution axis2-1.X.X-war.zip) as ROOT application.

Info: War distribution contains application with above structure:
axis2-web
META-INF
org
WEB-INF
    classes
    conf
    lib
    modules
    services
        put here *.aar files to deploy WS
    web.xml (manually created)

web.xml file

ShutDownHook - the last breath of an application

ShutDownHook allows you to perform operations (e.g. close opened resources, remove temporary files and so on) just before virtual machine shuts down. A documentation says that JVM may shut down in two cases: program finishes execution normally when all threads finishes their work (except deamon-threads like garbage collector) virtual machine receives a termination signal (for example after sending kill signal under unix or ctrl + C key combination under windows) Below is an example which will start endless loop which do nothing. But an important thing in this code is a part where shutDownHook is added. When an termination signal will be send to JVM a code from a run() method will be executed just before JVM shuts down. public class ShutDownHook { public static void main(String[] args) { Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread() { public void run() { System.out.println("Close opened resources"); } }); while (true) { // do nothing } } }

scala Hello World

The code below prints Hello World! Hello.scala file (a name of file doesn't matter) object HelloWorld { def main(args: Array[String]) { println("Hello World!") } } Key word object is used to create a singleton object. To run this script use scala interpretor (check scala command line tools ).

Unix - useful command line tools

This post lists unix command line tools which are very helpful during a work with these systems. alias create alias for a command // use aliast to a command alias ls='ls -ltr' awk // split text into tokens using '.' separator echo testFile.txt | awk -F'.' '{print$2}' // prints 'txt' chmod set access privileges to a file // owner rwx, group r-x, others --- chmod 750 fileName.txt Meaning of numbers: owner, group, others (respectively) 4 - read 2 - write 1 - execute find search for files // search for all files in a current directory and display lines with a 'stringToFind' find . -name "*.*" | xargs grep 'stringToFind' // search for a file and skipp all info about errors find . -name 'testFile.txt' 2> /dev/null grep use regexp to display lines from a file // display all lines without a # sign grep ^[^#] testFile.txt // display all lines with a # sign grep ^# testFile.txt gzip compress and decompre...
