Step 2: Transform the Java class in a Web service

To transform the Java class created in Step 1: Write a new java class into a Web Service, simply add a WebService annotation:

@WebService(targetNamespace = http://www.mycompany.com/barcode ",
  name="Barcode",
  serviceName="BarcodeService")
public class BarcodeService{
...
}

This defines all public and non static methods of the class as operations of the BarcodeService Web Service.

In the next step we start the Web Service, Step 3: Start the service.
