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

Java read file (entire or line by line)

Four ways to read a file in java. I have tested an execution time of them using 1,37 MB text file with 108825 lines. Result of tests is in a first comment of each method and is specified in milliseconds. 1 Read entire file at once 1.1 FileInputStream with read() // execution time: 7 - 8 ms ByteArrayOutputStream buffer = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); File file = new File("C:\\test.txt"); InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file); byte[] temp = new byte[1024]; int read; while ((read = is.read(temp)) >= 0) { buffer.write(temp, 0, read); } byte[] data = buffer.toByteArray(); System.out.println(new String(data)); PS: remember that read(byte[] b) doesn't do what you think it does -> link 1.2 FileInputStream with readFully() // execution time: 11 - 12 ms File file = new File("C:\\test.txt"); DataInput input = new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream(file)); byte[] bufferArray = new byte[(int) file.length()]; input.readFully(bufferArray); String value = new ...
